We stayed at thi spark for our July vacation. We do not need all the amenities of a resort; just the full hookups and easy access to the area. This park is a no frills location with long pull throughs. A few of the spots also have wide grassy areas. Well maintained by the gardeners it is tucked below the highway just south of 16 16a interchange. The owner is a bit weird but the price and location are perfect. Verizon worked okay with our repeater.

What campers say
Holy Smoke Resort offers clean, cozy cabins and RV sites in a well-kept, pine-shaded setting a short drive from Mount Rushmore and Keystone attractions. Guests note comfortable beds, basic kitchenette items (coffee pot, microwave, fridge), porch picnic tables, and convenient full hookups for RVs. Staff are frequently described as friendly and helpful. The property is dog-friendly and includes a large fenced dog run. Practical tradeoffs: occasional helicopter or road noise can be heard, and cabins are compact so shared bathroom layouts may feel close for larger groups. Overall it suits families and travelers seeking a central, comfortable base.
