6 electric only sites near the town park. 3 on the street and 3 in the parking lot. Plenty of room for big rigs, easy in and out for our 40 foot fifth wheel and level parking. (As long as there is no event at the ball fields).

Sites are at the edge of a parking lot that may be temporarily filled due to the baseball field on the other side BUT baseball died down pretty early and we weren’t bothered by it regardless. The sites are still pretty spaced away from the rest of the parking lot and there are two sides to stay on. We were the only ones there but it felt very safe. $20 hookups, and I believe $10 without hookups. We have 3 dogs and it was nice to not worry about keeping them as quiet for the sake of other closeby campers for a change. When going to the regular bathroom/shower building a woman from the wellness and events center across the way caught me and said she likes to try to catch campers to offer the event building’s showers instead which are far nicer. She offered free ice as well and I believe they had some snacky things available, but could be wrong. Was such a nice added bonus! Would definitely stay here again.

I arrived in the afternoon. It's much cooler here than in Sioux Falls!
All of the surrounding streets and the park itself are shady, except the parking lot on Wilder lane as there are no trees on the south side. I don't have a surge protector yet ($300!), so I just parked in the shade on the north side of the parking lot. The hookups were not in the shade at that hour anyway. Additionally, there was a little league baseball game this evening (Thursday), so all the locals began parking there.
There's a self-pay station next to adjacent to the facilities. TENT camping is $10 dollars.
The restrooms are clean enough - the usual spider webs, but no human mess. The showers were hot with excellent pressure - there's one for a very tall person and one for a child, a wraparound bench, two hooks, and a baby changer in the shower. Also, the "cold" in the sink seems to run hot until you run it for a few minutes. There's one soap dispenser and one air dryer, no towels. There are two outlets. I dried and straightened my hair before the large mirror.
At least three charcoal grills that I saw, 30 picnic tables and two covered picnic areas. Doggie poo baggies are provided. There are two nice playgrounds. Lots of trees and two very nice flower beds that I saw. I didn't cover the other half by 3rd Street.
The local hospital is adjacent at Prairie and 3rd Street and a clinic/dental services is located across the street at Prairie and Wilder Pass.
I have Total Wireless and had excellent coverage! Perhaps because it's adjacent to an event center, but the coverage was great throughout this tiny town.
Other than a little highway noise, it was fairly quiet. I can't complain.
