The yurt is very nice and comfortable, staff is friendly. The only reason not a perfect rating, sold us wet firewood. By the time we tried starting our campfire the store was closed and nobody to fix issue.

Thank you for your comments, we have adjusted your charges and refunded you the cost of the wood.

I've stayed at several KOAs but this one is the very best. It's in a great location and the entire place is beautiful. I stayed in a pod. It was very cute and adequate for my needs. The only recommendation I have is that they put up a couple extra hooks in the bathroom to hang things and they include a small broom and dustpan. Other than that it was great. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Thank you for the suggestion, we will follow up with this.

The campground was very family friendly and felt very safe. Kids loved the pool which was maintained well. I stayed in a 2 person pod which was clean and plenty of room for one person. On, the negative side, the mattress was extremely hard and was not kind to my arthritic shoulders. There were also a lot of moths in the cabin but once I got them out and kept the lights out,it was better

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thanks for the review! We have had a larger than usual number of moths this season, but we are in their space, we are thankful for the rain!

The cabin was wonderful! Very clean and comfortable. The staff were always there to help us in anyway. And the grounds were beautiful, someone obviously takes their time and really cares about how it looks! We hope to come back!

Thank you for the wonderful review. We will let our staff know of your kind words. Safe travels and we look forward to your return.

We showed up afterhours, but had received a text of instructions for late arrival and it was a breeze finding our packet and cabin. Enjoyed the pool and loved having the store and Kook Shack onsite for a bite to eat and supplies. We'd definitely stay again!

Thank you for your great review of our campground. We will look forward to seeing you again!

It was a nice location, close to park events and not far from i90. Easy going staff. Food available but with not-so-great meal options to buy from. Some rude guests but overall the kids, older and younger workers, hard working maintenance staff, clean restrooms and showers, made for a pleasant stay.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your kind review. We are working on expanding the menu with additional options.

Wonderful stay!! The site had everyone I needed and so much including great food, friendly staff, and an exceptionally clean pod.

Had employees freaking out and evacuating everyone, the situation was very traumatizing i will be reaching out to discuss a refund.

It was pleasant again. This was our second stay at the white river badlands koa and we were happy. I do wish the store stayed open a little longer though. Again. Very happy here

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for visiting our KOA, again! We will look at adjusting the hours the store is open during the first couple weeks of the season, great idea. Thank you again!

Always the best service and accomodations! Have been coming here for years. Love waking to the doves!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

So very glad to have you back at our campground. The doves are so soothing!

Overall the campground and cabin were great. A couple things that were a little disappointing, though, when we clicked on Amenities within our reservation email, we saw that the pool was open as of 4/28 and that all campers get 1 free complimentary pancake breakfast, and that the Kook House offers meals. We never saw the Kook House open at all and the pool was not open. Otherwise, it was great

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

I am so sorry and we have corrected the web site. The pool opens Memorial Day weekend and our Cook Shack opens the 19th of May.

We stayed in cabin 90, our son and dong we’re with us. We all had a great time and we’re very comfortable in the cute little cabin. The KOA hosts were from nearby our hometown, so it was like talking with a neighbor. The only thing I would change is if the pool could have been open, but I understand we were early in the Badlands KOA opening season. They had opened a few days before our arrival

Its ok, clean could use a little more privacy

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your reply, and I am sorry you felt the cabin did not offer you the privacy you were expecting. I hope you will give us another opportunity in the future.

This is the 4th time that I have stayed at this campground and had always thought that it was a nice campground. I've stayed twice in cabins and twice in my camper. I felt like this time the area and the grounds seemed very poorly maintained. I would have given it a 3 for average except that the pool color was almost green and my husband thought that it had a smell so therefore I have to

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

I am so sorry you found the campground lacking in maintenance attention back in July. We have since improved our maintenance schedule and found a correct balance with our pool. Thank you for your comments. I do hope you will give us another try.

Upon checking in the ladies in the office weee super friendly and gave us specific details and recommendations while we were visiting. Our first visit to the Badlands and would definitely choose to stay at KOA in Badlands again!

Happy to hear we were able to provide you with a memorable experience.

The campground is getting ready to do a lot of upgrades so I want to be flexible in my rating to allow for that. Our cabin had torn screens so open windows weren’t an option and the a/c only went down to 78 so it was a tad warm. I’m sure those will be improved over the coming off season! Cheryl was super nice & accommodating when I was forced home a day early. Camp is VERY close to Badlands lo

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your review, and yes, we are doing upgrades.

We loved Badlands KOA. It was quiet, peaceful, and clean. It was also just a short drive from Badlands National Park. We hope to stay there again in the future.

Bed was very uncomfortable. Not the norm when I have stayed at any other KOA. I think it is just old and needs to be replaced, but the rest of the stay was great!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

So sorry the bed was uncomfortable, we will address the mattress issue. Glad you did enjoy the area.

Very noisy campground allowing late check-ins. Next to us they checked in at 11 pm and it took them 3 hours settle in which kept us up. The facility is old and needs updating. Half way through a shower the hot water just stopped and we had to finish with just cold water a few times. We used the air conditioning and after 2 hours of use the A/C unit was so loud we had to turn it off. Good location.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

It is difficult to control when guests arrive. We have looked into the hot water issue to correct it. Thank you for alerting us of the issue.

We stayed here for a week as a base camp. Great location to the Badlands National Park , Black Hills , Wall, and Mt Rushmore. The people who worked at KOA were very nice. Thor is the general manager and they had just opened for the season. Things seemed to be getting in order...you know the grass cutting, the ice cream getting stocked, and the pool getting ready for the season. Just realize that just about all campgrounds here are dusty and not paved parking lots with no dirt. The restroom in the camping area was very clean as I had nature call when we were out for a walk. Oh, BIG RIG friendly and we were in campsite 18

We loved this KOA for a stay at the Badlands. Close to the NPS. KOA was clean and peaceful. We stayed in a yurt and it was cozy and clean. Restrooms were well kept also. Staff was friendly. Would stay again.
