Happy Holiday RV Resort

SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Situated a few miles southwest of camping spots near Rapid City, Happy Holiday RV Resort sits within reach of the Black Hills region's main draws, including Mount Rushmore and Custer State Park. The resort operates year-round and accommodates rigs up to 54 feet, with full hookups including electric, water, and sewer at each site.

Site conditions vary noticeably depending on placement. Some spots have tree cover, while others are fully exposed, which can make a significant difference on hot summer days when temperatures climb and shade becomes a deciding factor. Sites run close together, so campers expecting separation between neighbors will want to set expectations accordingly. Pull-through availability makes maneuvering large rigs straightforward, and staff have been noted for actively guiding arrivals and spotting during setup.

Amenities include clean restrooms, showers, WiFi, and a dump station. Jim M. describes "clean bathrooms and showers that worked great," and multiple reviewers confirm the hookups functioned reliably. The bath houses are older and have drawn some calls for updates, so campers with expectations for modern facilities should factor that in. Nearby alternatives include Black Hills RV Park and TeePee Campground & RV Park for those comparing options in the corridor. Pets are welcome, reservations are available, and the location works well as a base for day trips across the region.

Too close for comfort

Sites are very close. We had no trees so it was a scorcher in the RV even with 2 ACs running.

Wonderful campground

Lots of trees, staff was so friendly and helpful guided us to our spot and help as spotters, cover patios with tables an power for lights. Clean bathrooms and showers that worked great. Large and small rigs no problem no big dips or overhead problems. Not far from the attractions in the area. Definitely recommend.
