Homesteaded more than 100 years ago this farm is somewhat stuck in time. Once this was a prosperous dairy operation. Location location location, this place is my slice of heaven on earth. Located in the corner of 4 townships on an extremely quiet road.

The best camping near Upper Sioux Agency State Park guide

Overview

About

Here’s one for the bucket list: go back in time to America’s native roots and stay the night in a tipi at Upper Sioux Agency State Park. It's rich in Native America history, so be sure to check out the history trail and educational exhibits to learn about the land on which you stand. Take to the 18 miles of trails by day to explore the river valley and transverse prairie knolls. You’ll be exhausted from all the photo ops along the way, but that's a good thing. Words can’t do the sunsets here justice; you’ll just have to come see one for yourself. So, take a load off your legs by posting up on the banks of the Yellow Medicine River and throwing a line in as early dusk arrives. Then, once the sun has nearly disappeared, pack it up and head to your tent, spaces for which there are plenty to go around. For a vibrant and culturally rich experience, come visit during the annual Upper Sioux Community Pow Wow. You're bound to have a beautiful stay!

Tips for snagging a campsite

  • Book early to secure your spot, as campgrounds fill up quickly during peak seasons.
  • Consider visiting during weekdays for better availability and a quieter experience.
  • Keep an eye on cancellations to snag a last-minute reservation.
  • Explore nearby camping options to increase your chances of finding a site.

When to go

The best time to visit Upper Sioux Agency State Park is during the spring and fall when the weather is mild and the natural beauty is at its peak. Summer offers warm days perfect for outdoor activities, but be prepared for busier trails and campgrounds. Winters can be harsh, with some facilities closed or limited.

Know before you go

  • Check the park's website for the latest updates on trail and facility closures before your visit.
  • Remember that Highway 67 is permanently closed; follow alternative directions provided by the park.
