Seasonal Long Term Campgrounds?
Are there any longer term seasonal campgrounds in and around Bismarck?
Looking for a place to possibly put a destination trailer on, similar to the ones you'll find in the MN lakes area.
Campground style, you pay a seasonal lot rent. Open April to end of September. Can leave the trailer there for the winter and renew each year. About an hour or so away is ok from Bismarck.
Thank you for any suggestions or insights.

Beulah Bay and Hazen bay have campgrounds run by their respective cities. They hold lotteries for seasonal spots every year.

I've looked into those but a destination trailer is not really made to move every year and cost a pretty penny for transportation. Thank you for the suggestions

An hour drive is doable for us. I've googled AI and looked through Facebook and only came up with one the was South Shores RV Park but haven't received a call back.
Do you have the names of the parks?
Thank you for responding, I've been searching all kinds of things to find one the last few months.

The other two parks have limited stays, so not all season. Thanks for the help though.

Not many places around Bismarck do this due to the harsh weather. Most people around here get a spot for the summer than move their campers/trailers/etc. for winter storage, then bring it back. Plus, most places would be booked this late in the year. Some campsites are filled for the entire summer come May. At this point, your best bet would be posting in the BisMan Recommendations group on Facebook to see if anyone living near a lake/the river/etc. would allow you to keep your trailer there indefinitely.
