Make the Most of Your Medora Stay

A frontier town preserved in time

Medora stands as North Dakota's most visited destination, where the 1880s frontier comes to life along wooden boardwalks and false-front buildings. Founded by French nobleman the Marquis de Mores, this town of just over 100 residents swells each summer as visitors experience the landscape that shaped Theodore Roosevelt's conservation legacy. The adjacent South Unit of Theodore Roosevelt National Park protects dramatic badlands terrain where bison roam freely, while the historic Chateau de Mores offers a glimpse into aristocratic frontier ambition.

Entertainment and outdoor pursuits

The nightly Medora Musical has drawn audiences since 1965, performing a Broadway-style western revue in an open-air amphitheater carved into the badlands. The Pitchfork Steak Fondue at Tjaden Terrace serves dinner with sweeping views across the Little Missouri River valley. Bully Pulpit Golf Course, consistently ranked among America's finest public courses, winds through river bottoms and rugged buttes. Theodore's Dining Room provides refined dining, while the North Dakota Cowboy Hall of Fame preserves the region's ranching and Native American heritage.

Planning your visit

Fly into Dickinson's Theodore Roosevelt Regional Airport, 36 miles east, or Bismarck for broader options, then rent a vehicle for the scenic drive west. The town operates seasonally from late May through early September, when all attractions maintain full schedules.
