To reach this cemetery from Maddock, ND off highway #30 travel west and drive four miles, turning north for two miles and then west for two miles and then go down a prairie trail and drive 1/4 miles.�

The Hesper Cemetery is located near the ghost town of the same name, population zero.� It is surrounded by cropland and only accessed by a minimum maintained road.�

Judging from the burials, it is still being used for burials occasionally.
