Small town feel

Plenty of parking and close to town of Interior, and Badlands park entrance. Laundry is available - self service, costs US$2.75 for a load and about $1 for dryer. Campground office has a store with most basic supplies you need.

View from camp entrance with Badlands at the end of this road.

Good option for budget hotel. Beds had clean white linens, rooms were small but pleasant enough with interesting artwork and vinyl plank flooring. Best part is the Badlands view. There were a lot of flies in the area though. Good pizza place very close.

I stayed in a town called Institute, SD. Had two bars and a gas station. Was right outside the trailhead to a section of the bad lands. Was a great time and my room did everything I wanted. Beautiful sunsets and rises.

We loved our stay here. Great room . Fabulous authentic place . Dinner at Wagon Wheel (not to be missed, especially if you get to chat with Jerry the owner ). It’s a one horse town and we loved it the more because of that . Plus the Badlands are like nothing else on Earth

Wonderful surprise for a terrific price! They even moved a microwave into the room for us. Splendid location. Only complaint is the loud bathroom fan connected to the light fixture. And too bad no breakfast service the mornings we were there but that's why we got a microwave. Fabulous views all around.

Checkin was OK, but no personality the girl checking in couldn’t have cared less about us. She rattled off information so fast that I had to guess what the plan was. The accommodations were OK, being in the Badlands was worth it in the end.

Definitely an old property but clean and very comfortable. Nice staff. A good value. Bring your own food, though! There’s nowhere but a convenience store to eat or buy food anywhere nearby!
