PEOPLE ARE SAYING:
Teresa CookWhat a great find just off I-90 W about 30 mins from Sioux Falls. Nice level sites with trees, nicely landscaped and taken care of. There’s a dvd selection in the office to borrow and watch and free ice cream. Weather is perfect, and a little rain cooled things down ever so nicely. Have added this to my list of places to come back to.
