LOVED how big the bathrooms were up front! With lots of kids to shower it was nice to have a large room. The parks were fantastic and the staff super friendly. The tent sites were a bit dry and mostly dirt which is why I rated 8 stars but it is the beginning of the season so patchy grass is common.

The employees I worked with were polite and helpful, the facilities are scrupulously clean and in good working order. The camp is obviously very well run. Unfortunately the site is pretty noisy and exposed to the elements. Tent campers should have a contingency for high winds.

Way to close together. Couldn't buy firewood past 9.

I had a really excellent time at the Rapid City/Black Hills KOA! The area was kept very clean, and the staff do a great job with everything. The swimming pool and hot tub were both spotless. My camp site was incredible, and even had a huge shade tree overhead! It was conveniently close to all the facilities, such as bathrooms, showers, and laundry— which were all perfectly maintained as well.

The employees were friendly and the site itself was nice. The bathrooms were not the cleanest and smelled a little like cigarette smoke. I did not realize the campground was only a mile away from a local dirt race track so it was VERY loud on the night we stayed.

Nice place, will be nicer once the construction is done.

Great pool. Tent site was really awkward and not great but was a place to stay on our drive.

Sites were small mine specifically was right next to an unfenced basketball court where we got hit multiple times by balls in our tent and our vehicle was hit full adults not just children and teens walking directly through our site and our site was directly next to construction. Staff extremely rude kicked me out and called police on us while we were at Rushmore because I left an honest review.

Staff member yelled at my kids for harmless play at the playground, only stopping when I stood up. When I reported it, the manager offered no apology—just said it was her "pet peeve." Disappointed by the lack of professionalism and how the situation was handled. I expected better from KOA. —Matt Greiner

The staff and grounds were fantastic. Very clean and well laid out for comfort. The only thing, its very close to a busy highway and the traffic noise was a distraction.

The Rapid City/Black Hills KOA is a convenient location for activities to see in the Black Hills area. I particularly enjoyed the classy and clean heated pool and hot tub at this KOA. I hope to return next year and see the New General Store and Shower house.

Carla was very friendly and thorough. She ensured that my brother and I had tent sites right next to each other for both of our stays with different dates. Great facility, and I would highly recommend staying here!

Very nice KOA. It had some construction going on when I was there and looks like it will have a very nice office/store soon. I car camped and my site was level and shaded. The picnic table had a shade on it as well. The bathrooms were very clean, although the stalls were somewhat cramped. The RV sites looked nice but relatively close together. The staff were all very nice too!

I enjoyed the grassy tent site I was assigned! The bathrooms were unlocked. The staff were very helpful, but not nosy, the pool and hot tub were clean and perfect for my needs/wants. Despite the heavy construction work going on - I still enjoyed myself! My only negative: shower curtains were very narrow, so water did did splash outside the shower, but somehow it still worked!

I enjoyed my stay at Badlands KOA (tent site). Plenty of shade to set up my tent, it was nice. Clean property. My only criticism is that the pool was filthy (truly). Please clean it, put some bleach ... with that I would have rated it to 5.

One man that rode around on the golf cart that works there grey hair tied back mid length and had a bear with glasses and wore his KOA shirt was not trained on how to have manners and talked to guest. The ladies in office were very friendly and the young adults who maintained the shower area were always smiling. But that man was horrible yelling at us on arrival and departure days. LET HIM GO!

OMG...this place is a palace. Brand new restrooms and showers and a wonderful view of the mountains in the morning. There are plenty of grocery stores near by and the campground was silent after 8pm. These types of KOAs make exploring America great again

Just built a new Store & Office with shower/bath both upstairs & down that are like a mini spa! Staff at the campground are very helpful. From 7-10am they did a breakfast downstairs that hit the spot.
