This has to be one of the cleanest, neatest Corps campsites in the US. The gate staff were extremely helpful in getting me a good site near the water. The camp host would come around to all the campers and see if they needed anything. In the evening, she would drive to each site and see if the campers wanted firewood or ice (for a fee). I brought a bike and rode it two of the three mornings I was there. There are enough roads from the camp to ride without going out on the main highway. All in all this was a very nice campground!

This is a beautiful park. Lots of really nice sites. We had 50amp, no water at site but water is in different locations around the park & dump station just outside the park. Camp host Howard was very helpful. We would stay here again. Stayed in a MH for 2 nights. One morning we work up to May bugs (interesting). No big deal, they don't live long and they only landed in a certain area. Well kept park.

We had a nice quick visit. The kids went fishing and enjoyed the playground. The campground hosts were nice and helpful. We enjoyed seeing the dam lit up Red White and Blue at night.

Left Tailrace in Fort Thompson is a great place for many reasons: level RV parking, electric hookups, showers, fresh water stations, dump station… just about everything an RV-er could want! The host, Howard, went out of his way and was so helpful! We will definitely be back next time we are in the area!

Went to visit family in Chamberlain. Didnt realize that the park was 25 miles out of town. Best park we have been to. Right on the water, quiet. Friendly staff. Will definitely be back

Very friendly camp host greater us at check in. Our site had an unobstructed view of the river. The table and built in shade came in perfect for preparing our evening meal. Even though we were there for one say it was a five star experience. Wish I lived closer so I could go back.

Absolutely beautiful location and well kept campground.
Only 4 stars because of the boats allowed to park in the campground itself. It made it so challenging to maneuver the rv. We actually had to wait for someone to hook-up their boat and move it so we could get past when we arrived.

Fantastic little campground that is very well maintained and clean. Cleanest bathrooms of any campground I've been to in three years. Not much to do unless you have a boat and the local Indian population is not overly accepting or friendly towards campers. There is a beach across the dam from the campground that is literally full of trash, dog feces, and (not kidding) used diapers. It is under the Army Corp flag but the locals trash it. Stay away from there but the campground is great. Staff was flat out amazing and take great pride in their campground.
