Holy Smoke Resort

When you’re planning an RV trip to the Black Hills, where you stay is just as important as what you see. After a day spent exploring winding scenic roads, hiking beautiful trails, or taking in the views at Mount Rushmore, you want a place where you can truly relax.

That’s exactly what you’ll find at Holy Smoke Resort.

Nestled in the heart of the Black Hills just 1.5 miles North of Keystone, South Dakota, our family-owned resort is just minutes from Mount Rushmore and many of the Black Hills’ most popular attractions. Whether you’re visiting for a long weekend or planning a week-long adventure, we want your stay to feel comfortable, convenient, and a little like home.

 Stay Close to Everything

One of the things our guests love most is our location.

Instead of spending your vacation driving from place to place, you can be at Mount Rushmore in just a few minutes. From there, it’s easy to spend your days exploring Custer State Park, driving the breathtaking Needles Highway, visiting Crazy Horse Memorial, or strolling through the unique shops and restaurants in downtown Keystone.

Many guests tell us they chose Holy Smoke Resort because they wanted a central location that made it easy to experience everything the Black Hills has to offer—and they’re always glad they did.

 A Comfortable Place to Come Home To

There’s something special about returning to your campsite after a full day of adventure.

Maybe you’re grilling dinner outside your RV while the kids talk about the wildlife they spotted. Maybe you’re relaxing under the stars with friends after riding through the Black Hills. Or maybe you’re simply enjoying a quiet cup of coffee before another day of exploring.

Our spacious RV sites are designed to make your stay as comfortable as possible, with full hookups, 30- and 50-amp service, reliable Wi-Fi, and plenty of room to settle in. Whether you’re traveling in a compact camper or a large motorhome, you’ll find a site that fits your needs.

 Bring Your Four-Legged Family Members

Vacations are better when everyone gets to come along—including your pets.

At Holy Smoke Resort, we’re proud to be pet-friendly because we know many RV travelers consider their dogs part of the family. You’ll find plenty of space to stretch your legs, take a walk, and enjoy the fresh mountain air together.

More Than an RV Park

While many guests stay with us in their RVs, Holy Smoke Resort also offers cabins and vacation rentals. That makes it easy for families or groups to travel together, even if not everyone has an RV.

We’ve hosted family reunions, motorcycle groups, honeymooners, and families making lifelong memories together. No matter what brings you to the Black Hills, we’re honored to be part of your trip.

Why So Many Guests Come Back

One of the greatest compliments we receive is seeing familiar faces return year after year.

Some guests first visited decades ago and now bring their children—and even grandchildren—to experience the Black Hills together.

They come back because of our location, our clean and spacious sites, our friendly staff, and the relaxed atmosphere that makes it easy to slow down and enjoy your vacation.

To us, our guests aren’t just reservation numbers. They’re part of the Holy Smoke Resort family.

Discover the Best of the Black Hills

There’s a reason people from all over the country fall in love with the Black Hills.

Watch the sunrise over Mount Rushmore. Drive Iron Mountain Road and spot buffalo in Custer State Park. Hike scenic trails, explore historic towns, or simply enjoy an evening under a sky full of stars.

No matter how you spend your days, you’ll have a comfortable place to return to each evening.

We’d Love to Welcome You

Whether this is your first visit to the Black Hills or your tenth, we’d love the opportunity to help make your vacation memorable.

At Holy Smoke Resort, we believe great vacations start with a great place to stay. We work hard to provide clean accommodations, friendly service, and the perfect location so you can spend less time worrying about logistics and more time making memories.
