The location is fabulous. It is so close to the park. It was easy to find, parking was adequate, it felt safe. We thought the campground looked clean and well kept from walking around. Check in was easy, lady at the desk was friendly and helpful. The room was older but was clean, beds were comfortable. We would stay again.

8/10 Good

Property is older, but kept up pretty well. It was over 100 degrees outside when we checked in & the a/c kept up very well. A couple places needed some cleaning (fan cover on ceiling & baseboards in bathroom).
Jana, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

The bathroom door kept trapping us in and the TV never worked but it’s in a very convenient location if you want to see the badlands!

Great place to stay. Location is great for the Badlands loop. The manager is a friendly person, gave us some good suggestions for eating in the area. Good value for our stay
Penny, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Clean and great location. Our biggest downfall was the wall AC that made the room wet causing the floor to be damp and slippery. Great sunset and Badlands views!
