For people visiting the North Unit of Theodore Roosevelt National Park, Juniper Campground is a great place to stay. Located five miles (8 km) from the entrance to the North Unit of the park, the campground is open year-round.

Hikers can access the estimated 30 miles (48 km) of trails within a short distance of the campground.

There are no hookups. A water fill and dump station is available for campers (from May through October 1 each year). All wheeled vehicles and trailers must remain on roadways or pads.

Go to the Juniper Group Site (ND) to make reservations for the group site.
The Little Missouri River is the central, unifying feature of this wild and broken land where, as a young man, Theodore Roosevelt ranched and hunted in the 1880s. The park is part of both the Northern Great Plains and the West, blending a rich natural beauty with diverse human history. The rugged topography, with its flora and fauna, also provides an opportunity to discover the badlands environment as Roosevelt once did. It is a place to experience a land and way of life that helped shape Theodore Roosevelt's attitudes and philosophy regarding conservation. Cottonwood trees surrounding the campsite turn golden in the fall. Although the campground is moderately forested, most of the campsites are in partial to full sun but visitors can cool off in the cold river when temperatures peak during summer.
The town of Watford City is approximately 20 miles (32 km) north of the park entrance and has shopping, restaurants, and amenities. The Little Missouri National Grassland is the largest National Grassland in the nation at 1.03 million acres (416,826 ha). It is located in western North Dakota and is managed by the Medora Ranger District in Dickinson, ND and the McKenzie Ranger District in Watford City, ND. The National Grassland provides additional recreation opportunities in the area.
The North Unit entrance is located on North Dakota Highway 85, 20 miles (32 km) south of Watford City, ND. If travelling via Interstate 94, use Exit 42 at Belfield, ND, then travel north for approximately 55 miles (88 km) on Highway 85.
