It had the feel of seclusion. It was very quiet and relaxing. There are no showers or running water. I would pay more to stay there if those were put in. All In all it was a pleasureable experience, and I would go again. Can't beat the price!

Idk who that lady was at the check-in area but she was the sweetest lady I've ever met.

Campsites are primitive and clean. No showers at all anywhere in the park but there are travel stops within a 30 min drive of the site.

T-Mobile has coverage pretty much everywhere in the park but it's very finicky and requires you to play around with your network settings. Overall a great time!

Beautiful location. No complaints.

You are close to many trailheads and very close to Medora if you need supplies or just want to visit this charming little town. I recommend the "Cowboy Cafe" for a great breakfast! It was a lot of fun to do the scenic loop in the evening and do the Buck Hill turn off and watch a beautiful sunset and see herds of Buffalo and Mule deer feeding. The Cottonwood campground is well kept, only downside there are no showers. My site was a walk-in and nicely secluded C-59. Next time I might get a site a little closer to the car so as to do less hauling. My final morning I had Buffalo walk into my campsite as I was packing, We just ignored each other and he went on his way. All in all a great campground!

Saw the wild horsees next to our tent at night. And a rattler! Woah, cool!
