For Red River State Recreation Area: Close to Highway 2, agree about the add-on fees but it is still more reasonable than many other campgrounds with nearby attractions and nice big sites.

For Red River State Recreation Area: Access: Good. Paved/concrete interior roads are a little rough.
Sites: Pull-throughs & back-ins. Mostly level gravel/sand. Fire pits & tables. Many sites with shade. Spacing very good.
Staff: Friendly.
Grounds: Well kept, clean with lots of grass and trees.
Electrical: 30/50 amp. No issues
Noise Level: Moderate. Highway and Fire Dept close by. Some train noise -- not too bad.
Cell Service AT&T: 3 bars.
Wifi: Not used
Price: $36 site fee per night + $7.00 booking fee + $7.00 vehicle fee per night or $32.00 for one year = On the expensive site.
Notes: We travel in a 40' Motorhome. Not all park facilities were used.
Opinion: Much to like about this State Park. Pre-1997 the RV park was a residential neighborhood. In 97 it was inundated by record flood waters. Residents relocated and area turned into an RV park. There is direct access to the greenway with many paved walking, running and biking paths. If you are a cyclist, there is an 8 mile loop along both sides of the river or a 20 mile loop of connecting bike paths. Easy walking access to downtown East Grand Forks and Grand Forks, ND. The restoration since the floods is beautiful! Complaints: Fees have the sense of being nickel and dimed. Site surface is loose gravel and sand. If staff have questions regarding your registration, knocking on your door 9:00 PM is not beyond them. Like other State park experiences, staff can be intrusive. Weekends may be noisy -- outdoor concerts and car racing.

For Red River State Recreation Area: Gorgeous park! Full hookups! Lovely sites! Near University of North Dakota! Close to Amenities and overall a great place to stay! However, I was not prepared for the added costs! I called the park to make a reservation. I was give a number to call their reservation line. Cost to stay there was $33 plus $10 for a reservation fee. When we checked in I was charged an additional $7 for an entry fee. My total was $50! We stayed here in August 2019. Seems expensive for a state park!

For Red River State Recreation Area: Actually, we'd rate it a six star rating in all categories. Wonderful clean, well maintained campground with modern clean restrooms and showers, nice pull through and back in sites. Close to restaurants, entertainment and shopping. What's not to like.
