Everything was just wonderful, from the amenities (thanks to the cookhouse for dinner when the weather wasn't conducive to cooking outside), the pool and most of all, the staff. They were SO nice and professional! We'll be back.

We appreciate your review and will look forward to having you back.

This is a peaceful place to stay, with a lovely pool, miniature golf, and plenty of activities. A cool oasis with trees in an arid region, and so very quiet! Great internet and cable. Spaces are a bit close together. No AT&T cell reception. Food is a distance away. It would be nice if the KOA carts obeyed the 5 MPH speed limit! I'd definitely return here again. We were very relaxed when we left.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thanks for your review. Did your try our cook shack? Other food options are just 4-5 miles away! We will speak with our staff!

clean, friendly, quiet, peaceful place! Only thing to complain about was the bugs...which the campground was fogging for the day we checked out :)

We booked our stay a few days before we arrived. There is two of us campers traveling together, and we told them we wanted to be together. The lady on the phone said we would be across from each other. When we arrived, the older gentleman checking us in, said we should have paid extra to be together. We weren't offered that option when we booked our reservation. Very disappointed.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are sorry for the confusion on this. It appears that even if you had paid the select my site fee, we still might not have been able to accommodate you as your wished, that was a holiday period and we may not have been able to move others around to accommodate you.

We had a tent site with no neighbors. Late at night (11PM) neighbors set up. They were LOUD, had headlights on (which shone into our tents), and once set up they started drinking and had music going (until 4AM). No KOA person made rounds to check on things. They did it again the next night. We decided to check out early and I let the front desk know. I got a "Sorry about that" from front desk

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

I am so sorry this happened. This is why, on the map you received, there is an afterhours phone number. It rings to the owners house, who would have come out to help you. If you ever have this issue anywhere, look on your map, there will be an afterhours number, especially if you are at a KOA.

Dog park is in middle of campground? Barking,barking,barking. We have always loved and think is a special place as we started coming through 30+ years ago. Very special. Please bring back the soft Native American music that was playing 24/7 throughout all the restrooms. Relaxing. PLEASE MOVE the DOG PARK back where it was! We love dogs, but other people want to enjoy the place too!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We appreciate your comments, and apologies for moving the dog park on you, but now it has trees, shade and places to sit in the park. We will have cabins in different locations next season, so we can keep you away from the dog park.

Everything was wonderful at his KOA with one exception. The time I checked in and left 2 days later, the heat was extremely hot. I was tent camping and during my first day, I had to ask to transfer my stay into a cabin with a/c. They helped me out with the one and only cabin they had left. They charged me for the transfer and gave me a credit for my other one. They were fantastic and understanding

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

The exception was the heat! Glad we were able to get you some AC

Loved the shady dog park with the swing! Putt Putt area needs some attention. Staff very nice. Looks like improvements and updates are ongoing.

The usual KOA journey, nice folks, gravel, store and clean facilities. Propane was out so had to find on the road. Few trash cans scattered about. Mosquitoes were very bad but that’s nature. If you are going to see the badlands, this KOA is ten miles away on a windy road. Closer options available.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thanks for the review. However, we are a straight shot and 5 miles from the Interior entrance to the Badlands National Park. IF you come to us from I-90, then we are 15 miles from that exit and you do come through the National Park.

Very friendly and well kept.

Friendly staff, the food chef at the kamp kitchen was excellent! Pancakes, bacon, Buffalo burgers deserve 5 star rating. The pool depth markings need immediate repair, we thought the depth was 4 ft, turns out it was 7 ft, the label was missing. Our site was nice, but no fire ring, bit of a disappointment. Would definitely stay again!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank for the review! The tall black feature on the patio, is the fire pit, just not a ring on the ground. We have addressed the depth markers on the pool.

Great KOA! Staff is extremely friendly and helpful. All facilities were well maintained and clean. Food at the Cook Shanty was great!

Only negative was the flies, otherwise a great park
Aug 31, 2023
Loved it! Close to the national park, great sites with shade or sun....you choose. The staff as terrific and the stay perfect. I even ate the Sunday AM pancakes from the grill. I hope I get the chance to be here again.

Very clean, friendly helpful staff, quiet and so peaceful. We enjoyed the deluxe cabin and the refreshing, clean pool Food was just ok.

Very friendly and personable staff. The grounds were well kept. Everything was well maintained and organized. We would definitely camp here again!

Very convenient location to camp by Badlands NP. Friendly staff. The camper adjacent to our spot had an issue with his RV slide out and the KOA staff maintenance fixed it so he could continue his travels.
Aug 30, 2023
Kid friendly but buggy. The mosquito fogger helped for one day. The last night we had small little bugs (not ants)crawl into our tent, small enough to crawl in between the seams. Our 20amp electric site kept tripping when we tried to charge our electric car.
Aug 30, 2023
One of our favorite KOA campgrounds.
Aug 30, 2023
Reasonable stay. Great location for the Badlands NP and also to get to Rushmore. Set up was ok, site was dirt and grass with a bit of gravel. Space between was not too close. Someone had a bug zapper nearby which was helpful.

too much mosquito in my Campsite, I can not go outside, too much. the washroom is clean. But they did not clean the campsite, that is why too much mosquito.

Clean bathrooms, fun activities, good breakfast, large fenced dog run (good to the ground fence), nice-cold swimming pool, lots of space for all campers, ez access to the Badlands, 2023 lots of mosquitoes (but the moisture helps everyone-and they sprayed, so bring bug spray and be happy it’s not bone dry.). Most importantly the staff were excellent, friendly, fun, and happy!!!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for the kind review. We will share with our staff.

We loved the campground. It was in a quiet, peaceful, and beautiful area off the beaten path. The flies and mosquitoes are really bad, so bring the citronella and bug spray.

Flat, pull thru lots with full hookups. Would stay there again. The little restaurant was a welcome perk after traveling all day. Buffalo burgers were delicious! Clean shower houses.

I was pleased to find this campground. The tent site selected was just a short walk to the bathrooms and showers. The trash bin was close and there was access to fill up drinking water throughout the campground. It has a dog wash/cool off station right next to a well maintained dog park.

This might be my favorite koa. Thor and his wife are awesome. Everything here is about customer service, and they go above and beyond. We will be back.
