This is a minimally maintained property in just functional condition. The most disappointing part is that we left a phone charger in the room, but they supposedly didn't find it while cleaning.

The staff was friendly and welcoming. Room was cool and clean. Bathroom needs updating, toilet was low and small. Breakfast was good for what was offered. Coffe should be free, especially with breakfast. Should offer something to drink with breakfast. Was a convenient location for staying in Badlands and other nearby sights.

Combo motel and campground, that is super convenient just outside the southern gate of Badlands National Park. Was a 2-minute drive into park for "campfire" program. The rooms were clean and nice. There is a "camp store" in the office for essentials. Several food-serving bars nearby in Interior, SD.

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.
