Un-publicized city owned park and campground along the Knife River. Water and electric hookups, or…read moreprimitive tent campsites available. Lots of trees, strong WiFi, boat ramp into river, and a very large playground and park. Dump station and fish grinder at the other end of Harmon Rd along the main highway. Fire rings and picnic table at east site, restroom with shower at the south end of the loop, near the camp host site. Trail available to walk 1 mile to Knife River National Historic Site, a great small free National Park Service unit with the village site where Sakakawea lived before being recruited by the Lewis and Clark expedition. Also a strong option for overflow crowds who want to go to Lake Sakakawea for boating and fishing but can't (or choose not to) get into Hazen Bay or the state park. Not much highway noise as such, but the park loop road is well-used by locals getting to the playground (also a little noisy with local families) and the fishing / boating area. But for the rate, probably the best value around by far.

SCARY HORRIBLE when it rains. PROs - It is by a lake, the person working the campground is very…read morenice, the shower/restroom was clean. The CONS are considerable and we would never in a million years stay there again. It is a 4 mile dirt road with a steep hill to get down to the marina. The road is not maintained - while we were there, we were alternately told the road was and was not the responsibility of the casino (which owns and manages the RV park.) After a day of rain, the dirt road became an uphill bog of MUD. There was a regular car in the ditch the first day. It is miraculous that we made it uphill with our camper, slipping and fishtailing the whole way. I can't remember being so scared. Other campers were not so lucky and got stuck - had to be pulled out of the muck by a local farmer who was kind enough to help. After we were able to get out and sprayed off the mud at a car wash, the next day our wherls started malfunctioning and we had to have the dried mud chiseled out of our wheels and tires rotated to fix it. Hookups at the marina are electric only; they do have two water spigots near the center that are meant to be for general use, but the regulars hooked up to their RV while we were there, which made the spigot closest to us unavailable. The casino was good - we might be tempted to stay at the paved rv park directly connected to the casino in the future, but just the thought of our experience at the Marina scares me to death.
