Red Trail Campground Review

While we were in Medora, we stayed at the Red Trail Campground.  The nice thing about the campground is that it is within walking distance of the town.  Unfortunately, I can not recommend this park as a place to stay.  :(

With our Good Sam discount, it was $27/night, which is a little pricey for only electric and water.  The bathrooms and showers were AWFUL!  I had to clean them each time we went!  I don't think the management has even attempted to clean since the park opened.  Not good!

There is a playground, but it was also very dirty and unkept.  The equipment was not very sturdy or safely built.

The laundry room was also filthy.  They only had 3 washers and 2 dryers, which caused a lot of confusion when you had several people trying to get their laundry done in a timely manner.  The machines did work well, but with a large rv park, they really need at least twice as many washers and dryers to accomodate the campers.

They have an onsite "store" with a few essentials, but you have to spend a minimum of $25!  The owner of the park was also not friendly or helpful at all.  Very disappointing.  Here is a town of maybe 70 people, with out a grocery store, you would think that the convenience store would have essentials at a reasonable cost.  They charged $3.29 for ONE loaf of BREAD!  Robbery, in my opinion.  The closest store is in Dickinson, 40 miles away. :)
If you plan on visiting Medora, come prepared! :)

It really is unfortunate about this rv park.  It soured our stay in Medora. 
We met some of the sweetest people, and had some amazing experiences; horseback riding, the musical, the city park, but if we were ever visiting again, we would definitely stay somewhere else.

Blessings,
