This is just a little triangle of land on the edge of a small town with three full camper hookups. It is a convenient semiprivate location on your way to your destination. We are located “where the Badlands Begin” 20 minutes from the Badlands National Park. We are a tiny spot, 3 campers max, most likely just one possibly two campers, with a few trees, a couple pf picnic tables and a firepit.
Kadoka is a safe, quiet, small ranching community. There is a small grocery store on main st. It is open Mon thru Sat from 9 to 6. Main street is also home to the post office, a laundromat and a flower shop. The city bar with on and off sale options is also located on main street.
There is a subway and cafe ( the Sunset Grille) both located on the hwy 73 entrance to town.
Kadoka has a city park with a swimming pool, covered picnic area and children's playground . The pool is open weekdays June and July.
One last thing, Kadoka is a small town with volunteer fire and rescue teams. If there is a fire or car wreck, the siren will go off and continue until the volunteers arrive. It will stop, and you don’t need to do anything. It’s one of those things you get used to when you live here, but is a bit startling if you are not accustomed to it.

A fabulous location - a wonderful view of the Badlands National Park, not too full with other campers and plenty of power to run my HVAC units on a hot day - perfect!

It was convenient having a store there. Easy pull-through level sites. It was nice to have a dog park. The views were great and sunsets beautiful. And it was very close to the National Park.

Easy access to Badlands National Park. Nice view of the park. We ended up upgrading to a hookup site because we needed to run AC, it was so hot. Acceptable showers (the satellite showers are newer).

Location was beautiful and close to the park, with a stunning view of the Badlands. The welcome team was friendly, and very helpful with local information- Cindy and Dawny and the young lady who was training (sorry I forgot her name) were great!

As a RV Park it was reasonably well kept and served its purpose of providing a quiet and safe place to sleep for the night. The woman who checked us in was very welcoming and gave us suggestions of local restaurants if we chose to eat out. We have a self contained vehicle so can’t comment about any of the facilities and it was raining so we stayed put in our van.

We stayed in a rustic spot. The views are beautiful! Love that there is a dishwashing spot outside the bathroom with hot water, close access to the Badlands. The showers had great water pressure, but the curtains and bath mats need to be replaced, they had mold.

The location and views at this campground are excellent - right outside the National Park and beautiful views from every campsite. Staff was friendly and sites were easy to pull in and out of.
Was not impressed with the the showers - mays were moldy, water pressure low and drainage in shower not great.

The campground is conveniently located next to the Badlands entrance. It’s definitely better than parking on the pavement drive of the NP campground. My disappointment was in the conditions in the bathroom/shower. Black mildew adorned the aging shower curtains, and increased the yuk factor. The bathroom itself seemed ok.
