We only located two campgrounds in Wall, SD. Arrow Campground was the only one with 50 amp service with temperatures reaching into the high 90's. It was the worst campground we stayed in on our trip West. The pull-through sites were on dirt in between trees and not level. Nothing in the campground has been upgraded or improved in years. We would not recommend this campground. I would checkout the other campground in town. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Called ahead and chose this park over the other one in town only because it's cheaper and can get W&E site. It was OK for 2 nights, mostly because the cable TV was great, Verizon aircard and cell service also. Park needs a lot of improvement but considering this is Wall, SD and the season is short, and they'd still have the grumpy management (old men anyway, woman at desk is nicer). At check in, desk clerk did not mention Good Sam discount, there's no welcome/rules sheet nor list of TV stations, nor much else. Bathrooms have concrete floors, small stalls with cloth curtain "doors", and no soap at the sink. And they assign RVs next to each other instead of spreading them around. Try the other park in town first, if you really need to stay in Wall. We camped here in a Motorhome.
There are two Camp Grounds in town, both a short walk to "downtown" and Wall Drug. (www.walldrug.com) This one has good cable and Wi-Fi. Otherwise it's a coin flip. Strange setup as to lot size. The lots are narrow with two different numbers depending on which way you face. If they were to fill the spaces you would not be able to open your doors but they only rent every other one. Many tent sites, I suppose catering to the bikers on their way to and from Sturgis. Wall Drug also has a huge parking lot that accepts overnight dry camping. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park has an unusual layout which wasn't a problem when we were there as it wasn't busy. We weren't always successful with the WIFI but the TV stations were OK. We stayed a couple of nights so we could visit the Badlands and the missle site. We would stay there again, but only for a short time. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Campground was not what we expected; it needs some care; South Blvd is not marked well off of I-90. The office workamper was friendly and helpful. Cable TV was $1.50/night extra. We toured the area so didn't use any amenities. Laundry and office store were convenient. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Fairly outdated park with only a swimming pool for the kiddies. For our purposes--a layover while visiting the Badlands National Park--it was fine. The wi-fi signal at the trailer was consistent, although there were some problems SENDING (not receiving) email via Verizon.net. Wall Drug is a huge waste of time and money, and believe it or not, the best eating in town is probably the Dairy Queen. The National park, on the other hand, was superb. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
My husband and I thought this was a ok place for a one nighter, alittle pricely. The pool was a different type of wading pool. Cable was ok and was easy to walk to "Wall Drugs". We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We are staying in this park to visit the Badlands. Big mistake. Sites are very tight and you have to be slide to slide to fit 2 Rvs into their alloted campsite. We were in 2 sites due to the size of of our 5th wheel. Trains run all night and shake your RV. Wifi was good, water pressure not good. Would never stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is an old, run down park. The office/store was dark, dingy & cluttered. Staff was unfriendly. Irritated employee took us to our assigned site. Entrance road was paved, but interior roads & sites are gravel. I tested the 50 amp plug prior to plugging in & found no voltage on one leg. I returned to the office and advised the maintenance man what I found. He accompanied me to my site & said you can plug in to the next site. I tested it & it too had one leg with no voltage. The 30 amp plug had only 85 volts. I advised him what I found & he told me my volt meter was bad. I asked him to get his meter & test it. He stated, Plug in or leave". I had been in the park ten minutes, used no facilities & was refused a refund. I will never return to this park & advise others to avoid it. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is an older park but a perfect location to stay while you visit Wall Drug, which you can walk to from here. Also you can visit the Badlands National Park. The Badlands Park is a wonderful park. You could spend several days checking it out and seeing the wildlife. The management here is very friendly and helpful. They gave us a map and marked the sections where you could see the buffalo and where you could watch the archeological dig. So even though this is an older park it is a good place to stay. Also the cable is great and the wifi. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
An older, somewhat worn out looking park. Gravel sites were level and access was OK. Free WiFi worked very well; however, cable is available only in select sites and trees block most roof-mounted satellite dishes. A path through the weeds and over the railroad tracks led to the famous Wall Drug Store, so disconnecting the tow vehicle isn't necessary to shop and find something to eat. Wall Drug was interesting but I wouldn't stop again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We were here only five minutes after we paid and then left. We asked for a 50 amp site and paid cash only to find that the park was not wired correctly. When they came to look at the circuit breakers, it had a 50 amp plug with a 40 amp breaker on it. We decided to leave and they refused to return our money. It was not our fault that we paid for something they did not have. It would be better to stay in the other campground in town. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Made and paid for reservations. Given a site that was a row end. The site was so small that I could not put the awning up, it blocked the road. I told the owner that this was unacceptable. His response? Don't worry about it, everybody is parked behind you for the night, there won't be any traffic. His next offer was to allow us to fill our water tank and park next to a building that had a 30 amp. receptacle. I asked about the rows of empty sites? He replied that they were 50 amp. and he couldn't put me there. I requested a refund. He then decided that a 50 amp. site would work. He refused to honor his Good Sam discount. "It's bike rally week, and I'm already giving you a great deal. Other places get three times as much". This campground isn't even close to the Rally, and this place is hardly a "deal". Good place to avoid. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Looks like they are working on the park, adding new utilities and doubling up the spaces. They now have it arranged, in some areas, so that they can put two RV in each 30 foot wide space if they need to. One RV headed East and one headed West. They are arranged side by side, not on a slant and offset like most parks with this type of setup. After allowing room for the little tree and our slides, we would not have been able to open our door if there was another RV parked next to us. Fortunately, they were not busy when we were there so we had the whole space to ourselves. Next time we may pay a few extra dollars and stay at the other RV park in town. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Campground is within walking distance of the infamous Wall Drug (gotta go there once). Sites are level, deep, sort of wide (35'+-) and grassy. Shade trees are minimal, but are there. Restrooms are clean but need renovation. We camped here in a camper.

Rest rooms could be improved. Interstate Hwy noise. We camped here in a camper.
This campground is located 1-1/2 blocks from the downtown shopping area in Wall. The facilities were very nice, clean, and has a laundry with economical pricing. Good sites with plenty of room. We were not able to receive cell phone reception with our phones and the owner offered us the loan of his phone to make a necessary call. That is outstanding service! We would definitely return here. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is an excellent campground for a short stay: we stayed one night. It was not crowded, and they spaced us far apart so we had a lot of room. They have a very small pool, and no fire ring. I used the laundry facitilies here: they had 6 machines and all was very clean. The park is right next to the train tracks, but I only heard 1 train. We walked to Wall Drug in less than 5 minutes. This is a very nice park to spend a night after a visit to the Badlands. We paid $31.20 including tax and cable TV. We used Verizon aircard for our internet service. I would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a pretty nice campground. Gravel interior roads were in good shape. The trees were not tall enough yet to offer any shade, but they didn't interfere with our slides either. Nicely laid out, easy in and out with level, gravel pull-through sites that were barely long enough for our 5th wheel and truck. Site spacing was adequate with grass between. The campground was practically empty when we were there. The bathrooms were exceptionally clean. It's an easy walk to Wall Drug. We didn't use the Wi-Fi or cable TV. The above price reflects a discount. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
It is a decent park, nothing fancy though. All of the sites have a picnic table and the shade trees are still maturing. The pool is very small, but still refreshing on a hot day. This park is next to train tracks and I heard several trains go through between 3 am and 5 am. Wall Drugs is a 5 minute walk from the park. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
There are gravel roads with some water in holes when wet. Pull through sites were OK to get into, long enough but not overly so. There were train tracks nearby, but we heard no trains going by when we were here. The dump station is on the entrance road so you need to be careful to not block the road when using it . Close enough to downtown if you want to walk. We camped here in a Motorhome.
All sites are pull thru, but short and narrow. Marginal for a long rig, toad will have to be unhitched. Not many sites have 50 amp, and not all have sewer connections. Reservation recommended if you need either/both. Short walk into town (such as it is). Wall is so kitschy it's funny. A "must stop", just because it's such a legend. Also a good starting point for touring the badlands. A decent place to stay on the way through the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The bathrooms were the nicest we've ever used at a campgrounds! The staff was extremely friendly. We enjoyed our stay and will be returning when in the area again! We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground is wonderful!! Highlights include; Heated pool, easy pull through sites for all sizes, Easy Wi-Fi access, the cleanest bathrooms I have ever seen, and a large nature area with a pond. Sleepy Hollow is 10 minutes from the Badlands, a five minute walk to Wall Drug, and about an hour to the Black Hills. New management very helpful! I would recommend this campground to everyone! We camped here in a Motorhome.

Campground sites were small. Staff was not at all helpful. Reported water standing in a site, they were not concerned. Tiny swimming pool. $2 charge for cable, wifi was free & worked ok. Would not stay here again. Price too high for what you get here. It was close to Wall Drug. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Per previous review, nice level gravel, easy in & out access, short walk to Wall Drug. Picnic table at each site. Pool Heater was not working but in process of being corrected. Very nice staff. We would definitely stay again if in the area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
New management, excellent service. This is the choice campground for this area. They treated us like royalty, including my wife Donna, and brother, Mark. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground has new management and they are very friendly and working on making this the campground of choice in the Wall area. The campground has small level gravel sites that are slanted to allow easier entrance and exit from the sites. A picnic table is available at each site, there was very good cable TV and WiFi. The campground is within walking distance to Wall Drug. We would stay here again with no hesitation. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
I agree with the previous reviewer. Simple campground, level gravel sites, easy access in & out, walking distance to Wall Drug & downtown Wall, good cable, picnic table at each site & very friendly/helpful staff. By simple I mean, nothing elaborate but definitely adequate & would stay here again if in the area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This was a great campground to stay at. The campground is under new management, & the new owners were really friendly & very helpful. We stayed there very early in the season, & they were just opening & working hard to get the campground cleaned up & ready for the season. Showers, restrooms & laundry were very clean. The sites are all gravel & pretty level. The location is great, only two blocks to Main Street & Wall Drug. We stayed two nights in our 33' fifth wheel. I highly recommend this campground & would definitely stay there again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Campground was very serviceable. Sites are small with little shade. Modest but clean pool was a hit with the kids on a 100+ degree day. Short walk to fabled Wall Drug. We camped here in a Motorhome.
OK for overnight stay, although I think we paid too much for what we got. Roads were reasonably easy to navigate. Gravel roads, gravel sites. We didn't use the pool but it looked clean. I did notice a lot of mosquitoes in the area. It's a very short walk to Wall Drugs. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Stayed here 2 nites to visit Badlands. No pool, but then we didn't want it anyway. Gravel sites had been recently graded. Sites had grass between them, and were of adequate size. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Park has very good gravel roads and sites. The staff was very friendly & helpful. The sites are slanted to allow easier entrance and exit from sites. This is helpful as the interior roads are a little narrow. Sites have grass in between, and are long enough not to have to unhook the tow vehicle. Sites are wide enough to accommodate any number of slides. Although it rained, there was no mud on the gravel roads. Park has a perfectly clean appearance & was very quiet. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We really enjoyed camping at this park. Wall is a unique town, and is centrally located between the Badlands National Park and Mount Rushmore. People are friendly and genuine in this town. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Flat sites good for wheelchair. We didn't use the showers but I did look in them and they looked clean but not good for wheelchair access. Cable tv was $2.00 extra but they did have more than 50 channels. I would stay here again if in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Decent older park - nice management! Sites are typical gravel but currently not well maintained - it could be early in the season. Close to downtown - walking distance. Excellent access to the interstate. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very friendly staff. Short walking distance to the town of Wall (very touristy, but quaint). Level gravel sites, clean office/laundry and nice little swimming pool. Small trees provide little shade, but shade is hard to find in that area anyway. Would easily stay again while traveling through South Dakota. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stayed here for an overnight because we wanted to visit Wall Drugstore. The campground advertised Wi-Fi, which they didn't have and television service, which they didn't have. A microscopic swimming pool, and a hostess who continually coughed in my face during resistration. Not too friendly. I wouldn't stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The staff was very friendly. Easy access off of I-90 and close to Wall Drug. Pull thru site was level and quiet except for when a train was switching at the grain elevator which was quite close. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a decent campground walking distance to Wall Drug. It is very clean and the bathrooms are extremely clean. The sites are narrow but not too close to your neighbor. A train runs past the park but we only heard it once. One thing to note: the sewer hook-ups are a 2" pipe instead of the standard 3" This is a nice park to overnight at. We camped here in a Motorhome.
