We loved this campground. Our site was right by the river and the view was amazing! Bathrooms were also very nice. It was a real treat to stay here.

The scenery around campground was awesome and restroom in the camp site was clean. I will definitely visit again.

Amazing spot right by the river. There's not a lot of privacy but we found all our neighbors to.be friendly and respectful. The wild horses hung out near the campground for several hours while we were there.

We loved cottonwood! The camp ranger was so helpful and thorough. The hiking and wildlife experience was the best! Great wildlife and less people!

Excellent views in our campsite, but be careful where you pick your site. Ours had no shade and was about a quarter mile to the only bathroom. Also, it could be more clearly stated that the “fire pits” available are standing metal grills. Not really appropriate for an evening campfire. Otherwise we had an excellent stay, saw a lot of bison and horses. There was a sudden intense thunderstorm, so make sure to put your rain fly on.

There is a bathroom under construction at the south end of the campground, I assume? The other one nearby is very nice and new, but I do have one observation. The door to the men's side closes with a violent slam. I fear that the hinge or even the frame will break prematurely. Surely there is a spring or some device to cushion the closing.

Great Park.....NICE tent site on the river. Medora is a great little town.

We stayed in the South section of the park at site 55 and 57 facing the river. The views were lovely. The sites were large and had plenty room for tents. Most have shade except #57 and #58. We enjoyed the stay and wished to have stayed longer

We only stayed one night en route on a longer trip out west, but it was a really pretty spot to camp — we managed to reserve one of the walk-in sites overlooking the river (you can only reserve odd-numbered sites). We camped in early July and didn't get to the park until around 7, and the FCFS sites had just filled. It would also have been super peaceful if there hadn't been a group of young guys at the site next to us who didn't care about quiet hours. The walk-in sites are spaced out decently but don't have any privacy between them. They aren't a super long walk to get to - we have a big tent, and it was no big ordeal to get all our stuff to our site. They must have just redone the bathrooms here; they are by far the nicest bathrooms I've ever seen at a campground (note: no showers). Most of the sites were a decent size that would have accommodated our 10x15 tent. Overall really nice, and we'd definitely stay here again.
