Lovely site in the badlands. Lots of room for dogs to run and very private. Well kept outhouse.
Hosts were great, even gave the kids some fossils they had found.

Wonderful Stay Badlands River View
5 m car
We had a great stay at Badlands River View! The campsite was peaceful and full of life—lots of rabbits and birds around, which made it feel extra special. Michelle was a wonderful host and even gave us a thoughtful gift to take home, which was such a nice touch. We truly appreciated the warm hospitality and beautiful surroundings. Would definitely come back again!

Serenity at it’s best.

This camp spot was so ideal, so picturesque and so what we needed for a weekend away. I’m really hesitant about leaving a 5 star review because the more people know about this amazing spot, the less time there will be for us to enjoy it in the future.
Firstly it’s quiet and we LOVED that! The scenery is second to none and the privacy was wonderful.
We hope to return next year in warmer weather in the hopes it doesn’t get too busy.
The outhouse was clean and well equipped, the platform for tenting and which the picnic table sit on, came in very handy for coolers and water jugs etc.
PS. The lack of light pollution made for amazing night sky watching, sadly we missed the northern lights.
