About this campground

Fort Abraham Lincoln State Park in Mandan North Dakota is a scenic partial hookup RV and tent campground adjacent to the Missouri River. Fort Abraham Lincoln was once an important infantry and cavalry post. It was from this fort that Lt. Col. George Armstrong Custer and the Seventh cavalry rode out on their ill-fated expedition against the Sioux at the Little Big Horn. Portions of the military post, including the Custer House, have been reconstructed.

What campers say

Fort Abraham Lincoln State Park offers well-preserved historic reconstructions and interpretive displays set on spacious, walkable grounds with scenic views of the Missouri River. A network of paved, dirt, and grassy trails leads to river access and birding areas, and the campground is green and pet-friendly with leash rules. Facilities are generally clean, including bathhouses, showers, and vault toilets; some sites provide electrical hookups for RVs. There is a daily entrance fee unless you have a state parks annual pass, and several historic areas have early closing times (around 5 PM), so plan visits accordingly.
