Badlands Hotel and Campground
24 RV Sites, 26 Tent Sites, 21 Hotel Rooms
Badlands Hotel and Campground in Interior, South Dakota, offers 24 RV sites, 21 hotel rooms, and 26 tent sites one mile from Badlands National Park's south entrance, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted up to 100 feet. Full-hookup, water-and-electric, and no-hookup categories serve every budget in one of the country's most isolated park settings.
Twenty-four sites span 30-amp back-in, 30-amp water-and-electric back-in, 50-amp water-and-electric back-in, no-hookup back-in, and pull-through categories, sized to 100 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and site WiFi. The no-hookup option suits self-contained rigs at a lower rate. Twenty-one hotel rooms, a two-bedroom apartment, and 26 tent sites round out an unusually broad lodging range. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, firewood, and on-site dining handle the practical side. Campfires are permitted, subject to any posted restrictions.
An outdoor pool anchors the warm months, with walking trails, picnicking, hiking, boating, and birding from the area. Pets are welcome.
The one-mile distance from the park's south entrance is the whole proposition. Badlands National Park protects one of the most visually striking geological landscapes in North America and one of the largest intact mixed-grass prairie ecosystems left on the Great Plains. This is genuinely remote country — the nearest significant commercial infrastructure is an hour away, which makes a property with hotel rooms, a store, and a restaurant unusually valuable.
Summer is peak. Reserve well ahead.
