Reviews
The State parks are so beautiful and very well kept. This park is right on the Missouri River and Heart River. So neat there. We stayed at a site with water and electric. There's also a dump station. Many hiking trails and playground, pic-a-nic areas and modern clean bathrooms. At only $25/night plus the park daily fee of only $8. There's also an amphitheater, fishing and just watching the Bald EAGLE that was circling as we walked with our cat. I think it was hungry. I could have stayed there much longer. Oh and check out time isn't until 3pm. That was nice too.
FALSP. Great hiking, biking, horse trails. Camping, fishing and activities and events throughout the year. This is a beautiful park along Missouri River. Dog friendly but must be kept on a leash.
Arriving, had a nice chat with the ranger at the gate getting some recommendations. From there, we went to the Custer House for a tour (additional fee above the entry fee) and well-worth it. The one hour guided tour with Don was excellent and informative. We then crossed the parade grounds to the barracks, then up to the blockhouses for an excellent view of the Missouri River/prairie and visited the cemetery. Back down the hill to the Mandan village where you can go into some of the earth lodges and finishing up in the visitors center which had some great artifacts for the fort, the Mandan village and local tribes and the Civilian Conservation Corps. All in all, a great time.
Lots to see and do here at this park. All facilities are well maintained and it offers events throughout the year. Great mt bike trails too
Park with a ton of history as most havee. 7 dollar car entry was a fair price. If you plan to enjoy the whole park, plan at least half to full day, closer to full if you want to see all the trails and such. Block forts and the mud huts are staples, yet trails galore and exploring the wide open spaces. Native American culture and history are things we should all understand more of.
My mother is from Mandan and I have family that lives there still, also in Bismarck. I’ve visited the park countless times since I was a little girl. I’ve had the privilege of creating memories here with my own family. We’ve done the Custer house tour, climbed the block houses, sat in the earth houses, fished the river, had barbecue gatherings with 3 generations of families, walked the trails along the river. It’s all around a incredible place to visit. We will be back to visit for many years to come.
Great campground for chilling. Nice pa ed partaking river and camp sites. Very friendly and helpful park staff. I would recommend a stay here. Clean bathrooms and showers too.
Awesome campground on the River.easy to find easy in and out of camp sites. Firewood in ice available
