Restrooms & Showers were clean. Site was fairly level, one jack sunk 6", cracked a board. Sites nicely spread out and some have shade. State Park, asphalt road, one way. Quiet Park. Would definitely camp again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Level, gravel sites. Nice pool and playground in this city park. Some people were boating, swimming and inner-tubing in the river. Dump station on site. Fresh water available but it is very hard water. Felt safe. Noisy some nights until 11pm. Would stay again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a city park in Pierre, just about a mile for the State Capital building. The park in on the river. It is very nice even though the RV spaces are in a gravel lot. The spaces are divided by markers with lots of room between the spaces. There is a dump station and fresh water available on site. There is a five day stay restriction. Seems like the local police drove through the park every 20 minutes so it was very safe there. The park is located on the Lewis and Clark trail and you can walk or bike several miles of the trail from this location. We did not find this park listed in any of the usual campground books. Very nice for the price. We would stay here again if we ever came back to Pierre. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We were here the week after Labor Day and the campground was almost empty, although it filled up somewhat the next weekend. We liked the campground a lot, despite the lack of full hook-ups. The sites have electric only. Also, we are in campground #3 and there are only two pull-through sites (I'm not sure about the other wto campgrounds in the park, but I don't think there are any pull-throughs there). The bathrooms and showers are clean, although the showers have a rubber floor that is very hard on the feet. The major disadvantage is the number of flies and mosquitoes that makes it difficult to stay outside for long. There is a walking trail nearby that is great for those cool morning walks. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Nice park with 50 amp service. Would be great if it had water and sewer at the site. Large sites with lots of trees. Very good area to bike. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We only stayed here one night on our way through the area so we did not explore all of the campgrounds amenities but it worked out really well for us. We had site #171 in campground #3, a paved, level pull-around site with 50 amp electric but there are no water hook-ups at the sites. There were some sites nearer the water that looked like they would be long enough for our 30 ft class A but the road to them had many low hanging branches that we did not want dragging our our rig. The bathhouses were very clean with good hot water and water pressure. Our only complaint was the low tree branches that we couldn't avoid in this campground. We didn't use the dump but it was set-up well and easily accessed. The campground is just outside of Pierre which is a nice small state capital. We visited the war veterans memorial at the capital building, it was worth seeing. We camped here in a Motorhome.
