Site was wide and level with grass. Campground was easy to find. Train tracks were really close and loud. We had couldn't get our SurgeGuard to stay on at the 50 amp connection so I took it out of the circuit (stupid me) and blew a ground fault breaker and a voltage monitor in the trailer. Air cond., fridge and water heater were not on electric so they were saved. It was to late to move so we just unplugged and moved to a 30 amp the next morning. I had no problems with the 30 amp and replaced the breaker for $42. The monitor is gone. I would stay again but I will never plug in without my SurgeGuard again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a smaller RV park located on the Heart River. The park is modest, but clean and has a beautiful view due to being close to the river. All services were as advertised and worked well EXCEPT for the Wi-Fi. We were parked just a couple of spaces away from the office but signal was low and spotty -- very frustrating if you're relying on the internet for communication or work related issues. The managers were friendly and worked well with us on any questions or concerns. I would definitely recommend this park for an overnight or two (has level pull-thrus) but unless your computer connection isn't vital to you, I would not stay longer unless they fix this Wi-Fi issue in the near future. The area has all necessary shopping and gas stations. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a Passport America park for a reduced rate. For what was paid, it was OK. Site had quite a slope. Park seems to be a bit run down. I would not pay full price. Dump station is in a strange location, making it difficult to get into. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Rates are $28.to $32. with 50% discount to Pass Port America members. We used the park 1 night in July 2006 & again in June 2008. It's a nice place for a stop over when traveling, but I didn't see any thing to make me want to stay longer. Not far off of I-94 - quite, with shade trees. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Clean park with friendly staff that made sure we had a site with view of the sky for our Internet-Satellite dish. The sites were level and some are pull-thru. The roads through the campground were rather challenging for our MH with toad attached. On our site we could stay hooked up for our overnight stay, but many of the others would have been too short. We knew the river was close because we had an unobstructed view of the State Street Bridge. Campground was quiet during the day, but at night, State Street became a motorcycle dragway. That is not the campgrounds fault, but it made sitting out in the evening rather noisy and unpleasant. We camped here in a Motorhome.
A good overnight location about 5 hours from Minneapolis on I-94. Hookups can be a bit awkward since they are all to the rear of the sites. 50 amp sites are all back-ins so you will have to unhook your towed vehicle. Plenty of room to negotiate even for the largest rigs. I have a 45 foot coach with a towed vehicle and had no problems camping here. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is our second stay here in the last two years. The free WiFi now works to all but the most distant sites. The sites are big and well kept. We are parked under huge cottonwood trees about 100 yards from the river. Great park, especially at the Passport America rates. We camped here in a Motorhome.
If all you want is full hookups and cable for the night, this park is OK. I agree with earlier review about the advertised pool. I had been here 3 years ago and the pool was out of service then. I had planned to stay several nights because I thought there was a pool, but left after one night. Half the sites are seasonal/resident/workers if that bothers you. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We feel this park misrepresented themselves in all advertising we saw. The above ground swimming pool had no water in it and looked as though it has been empty for some time. We had no firepit or table as advertised. The young man told us the sewer connection was on opposite side than actually was. The WIFI was not available even when parked very close to the office. Thought the staff was rude. A man went into office in a.m. asking if they had coffee. When the man walked out the lady said "do they think we grow it here?" Would never stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Sites were large and fairly level. Owner was very nice and helpful. Wireless internet is available, but only for selected sites. You must be close to the office in order to use the internet. Cable tv is also available, but our neighbors had to run a cable across two other sites in order to hook into it. Some sites back up to the river. Good tree coverage at our site, but not so much that we couldn't get satellite tv. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Beautifully maintained park on the river. The best sites are the 30 amp sites (no sewer) across the lawn from the river. Those sites are large and under the trees. Free WiFi. Passport America rate is $15. Owner allows free dry camping ($5 for use of dump station). We camped here in a Motorhome.
The campground has e/w sites looking at Heart River but view is not much. Full hook ups on upper level face other direction. This is an acceptable campground for stay over night and fairly easily accessible from I-94. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Not a fancy place, but it serves my purposes. I stayed there 5 nights, while I drove my car around western North Dakota and visited the sights. It is a very interesting area to visit. I think it is much larger than 63 sites listed above. The laundry room and restrooms were immaculate and very nice. It covers a very large area and also has a permanent housing area. The people in the office were friendly and helpful. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This was not as convenient to the interstate as we had hoped, but it worked for an overnight stop. The driveways and pads for parking were not paved. With the wind blowing, it was very dusty and hard to keep dirt from blowing into the RV. The sites were fairly level and accessible for big rigs. The bath house was older, but clean. We didn't use the laundry facility, but it looked clean also. The internet Wi-Fi connection worked well. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Nice large open park. No problem for satellite. Large sites, long pull throughs with plenty of room for rig and tow vehicle or MH and toad. Well kept, but could have more gravel on the pads as it gets very muddy with rain. No activities or camp store, but we don't need those things. Best bathrooms I have ever seen, sparkling clean with heat lamps in the showers and nice shower curtains. Friendly, accommodating staff. Owners constantly working on upgrading the park: building privacy fences, new picnic tables and adding cabins. Convenient to shopping and town. Would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a no-frills campground. It doesn't have pool, game room, playground, activities or other amenities associated with a destination campground. But for the money it's better than a lot of places we've paid more for. It's not much to look at, and it's clearly a work in progress in many ways, but the pull through sites are very large and pretty quiet. There are some long-term campers here but, other than the noise of trucks leaving very early in the morning, they're neat, quiet and not at all objectionable. The showers and restrooms are immaculate and very nice. The pull through sites have side-by-side hookups and there is grass only on the non-hookup side, which means it can get a bit muddy and messy on the hookup side if it rains. There are no trees to block satellite access but that also means no shade. We stayed here a week and were very happy with it and would return. They do not take credit cards, just cash or a check. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Very quiet & very clean. Interior roads need some attention. Wifi was spotty due to other rigs blocking signal. Wal-Mart & other shopping, plus restaurants, are within 1 mile from the campground. Dickinson is a pleasant place to visit. We camped here in a Motorhome.
There must have been some improvements since the past review in 2007. The signs to the park are good. This is a very large park with very long gravel and grass back in sites and large pull through sites. It would be hard to believe that they would ever fill up this park because of the number of sites. It is on the NE edge of town, thus in a relatively open range area. The restrooms, showers and laundry were very clean and there appears to be ongoing improvements. The sites are wonderfully far apart and spread out. There are a number of new tree plantings and hopefully they plan many more as shade is scarce. If you like a wide open, easy in and out for any size rig and nicely maintained RV park this would work. The price for full hookups is reasonable and if they continue to make improvements, including more trees this would be top notch. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Signage to campground limited. Good area to park and register. Access road to site wide and well maintained. Large level gravel pull-thru sites with full services in the middle between two sites back-to-back. Built originally for workers to construct the Garrison Dam. A large proportion of the campground is undeveloped. There is limited infrastructure but Wi-Fi worked well and restrooms and showers were new and clean. Close to all town facilities. Cash only accepted. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Signs were good coming from the west except for the last one; the arrow looked like a 45 degree turn ahead slanting to the left when it is actually a 90 degree left turn right there. It is a nice campground. No highway noise. Nice lake views. Trains: one track in the distance on the north side of I-94, second track 50 yards from campground. Trains on the closer track go by fast and sound like they are coming right through the window, but fortunately few went by at night. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
NICE..level, partial shade at all sites with 10' lilac bushes to each side (~25' x60') of sites for privacy. Also 40+' shade trees to the back of sites with table and fire rings. Sites face the lake. Golden Age (America the Beautiful) pass honored; 1/2 price is $9. Water, 30A elec, no sewer, but dump station convenient to sites. Restrooms-showers needed TLC but park grounds were emaculate. Boating, fishing, and swim beach are within walk distance. Park for kids and group picnic site. Much better than 'other' campgrounds on river that we toured in area. My computer cell card was very slow-sketchy, but available closer to town if you need it. Accident ruined signs last year, so...from the I-94 bus loop take Hwy 10 (on SW side of I-94 loop) go about 1 mile (its past the G&Fish sign), turn left just after the Diesel repair Shop and in front of the N-S row of houses, you'll being going South; passing just to the West side of the CHS tall silo (easy landmark), cross the RR track (be careful is it a busy RR!) and you are there, its REALLY not that hard, plus big rigs can get turned around most any place in case you take the wrong left like we did! We camped here in a Motorhome.
