Nice, not fancy, but has what you need. Every spot is pull thru with level gravel parking, nice concrete pads with picnic tables and everyone has grass! Right near freeway, so kinds noisy, but easy on and off. Next to gas station for convenience. Nice grassy areas for your dogs and small play area for kids. Management was very nice and helpful. It might not be fancy, but I'd stay here any time!

Worked great as an overnight stay. Paid $37. Full hookups. 50amp, water pressure max of 50psi. Sewer connection was just an open pipe but we had a rubber donut that formed a tight seal. Check-in is at the gas station. They were very friendly and assigned us a site. Most of the sites are annual/permanent residents but everything was neat and tidy. The kids used the small swing set and enjoyed running around on the grass. Noise from the freeway, particularly the exit right next to the campground with semi trailers using their air brakes woke us up a couple times but it was mostly quiet otherwise. Not far (especially since the speed limit is 80mph) drive up to Sioux Falls and the closest grocery store.

We stayed in our RV at Countryside Campground with our dog. The staff was friendly and helpful. It felt like there was plenty of room between us and the other RVs. The campground was calm and quiet. There was a nice strip of pasture between the campground and the off-ramp that was separated from the campground by a privacy fence. It was clean and spacious and great for exercising our dog-reactive dog. Overall great experience!

This was a one night stay and wasn't a bad park to stay at. When you check in you go to the convenience store and then we walked the park to find where we were at. We also liked the thought of exiting out into a big grassy spot. The park was clean and there are a lot of permanent people but we had no issues with them as they seemed all pretty friendly. The park was full and was surprisingly quiet. You do hear the road noise but we were not bothered by it. Our spot was level and we were able to drive right to it. As some mentioned it is an odd lay out but we didn't mind as it was easy to manuever our rig in and out with no problem. We would stay here again and the price is not bad. We camped at Countryside Campgrounds in a 42 ft Fifth Wheel.

This was a “last camp spot available” stop for a quick overnight as we traveled home. We were pleasantly surprised! Easy on/off interstate - wonderful staff and the sites were beautifully maintained. A few full time campers on the scene but everything was exactly what we needed. Handy gas/food/convenience store - decent and clean showers/bathroom facilities- an full hook ups. (Dump ability for those rigs that need it) Every site had a picnic table on cement pad with easy pull through sites. Very nice - and especially thankful to find on a busy holiday weekend.

It is an odd layout, but it seems to work. The place is clean, plenty of space for walking your dog. The only drawback is the dusty gravel roads.

Great roadside stop for a night. Easy access off interstate, which means you hear trucks. Lots of green grass and sites handle large rigs. Did not use facilities. WiFi out on our night but worked just before we left. Fuel stop and convenience store connected, which is convenient!

Small campground with everything you need; power, sewer, water (not overnight due to freezing), and pull through sites. Making a reservation was super easy & entire staff is incredibly nice and welcoming. Nice quiet area with gas station right next door, including diesel! "Paul's chicken" from the store is amazing
