Fifteen pull-through sites with full hookups sit among tall pines and firs in this forested campground just outside Keystone. Holy Smoke Resort operates seasonally from mid-May through mid-October, accommodating RVs up to 78 feet with 30/50 amp electric, water, and sewer connections. The sites are narrow, as several reviewers note, though they provide adequate space for larger rigs.
Campers report helicopter traffic overhead during daytime hours, a byproduct of the location's proximity to Mount Rushmore and other Black Hills attractions. The campground includes WiFi service and allows campfires, with a small dog park near the entrance. Some sites require re-leveling, according to visitor feedback, and the property enforces strict rules that some find less welcoming than expected.
The location provides convenient access to major regional destinations. Lawrence P. notes the campground puts visitors "close to all the wonders that the Black Hills has to offer," including Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse Memorial, and Rapid City. Keystone's tourist district sits within walking distance, though campers describe it as overpriced. Several cabins are available for rent alongside the RV sites.
Reserve ahead during peak season, as the combination of full hookups and central location draws steady traffic from May through October.
