  • Would not go back
    By Betty, 09/27/09
    We met some friends at Holy Resort to stay for 3 nights in a 2-bedroom cabin. As others have said, the owner was not very welcoming, almost rude. I was mistakedly under the impression that we would have a kitchen. My mistake for not reading well enough, but our "kitchen" was a refrigerator, microwave, and small table in one room, with the ...

  • We won't be back to Holy Smoke
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/03/09
    We stayed in cabin 16A for 5 nights. We had to pay for our entire stay upfront. There is a 72 hour cancellation policy so we basically had to stay for our entire trip, otherwise, we would have gone somewhere else. Our interactions with the owner were quite unpleasant - zero customer service! The cabin was extremely dusty. We were given 2 VERY small ...

  • Nice place really...
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/03/09
    The rooms were clean and being off the road was nice, be sure and ask outright what you are paying per night a little confusion there. If you stay in cabin 5 or 6 the walls are so paper thin you can hear a person clear their throat and much more of you get my drift.. (woah)... you can still hear traffic loudly from the road as the resort is still ...

  • WOULD LIKE TO GO BACK
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/30/09
    We came from NM & MN to see the fireworks at Mt. Rushmore on the 4th of July. We were greeted by friendly office staff and later cleaning staff. My grandaughter really enjoyed the outside adventures she came up with every night. I couldn't imagine going anyplace else. I know we are talking again about meeting there in the next few years. Thanks for a pleasant place to rest.

  • Can't Wait to Return
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/02/08
    My family LOVED the Holy Smoke Resort! Our 2 bedroom cabin was quiet and comfortable. Our 11 year old son had a blast picking up unique rocks to study. The huge tall trees were very beautiful! Every night we had 3 deer come close and feed in the field right near our cabin. It was heaven on earth. We will return soon. The food was great in the ...

  • Cold showers and hard beds
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/20/07
    We just got back from staying at Holy Smoke and there were a few things we did not care for. The location was good. I thought the owner was very rude about us coming in earlier than what we had planned. She did not have our cabin available as it was already rented out but she did have another one with 2 double beds which was fine. After I told ...

  • Filthy and unwelcoming
    By Jane, 08/07/07
    We stayed in one of the "2 room" single level cabins. (Like "Cabin 8" on the establishment's website) Said it would sleep 6 and it DID, technically. The rooms are very small and beds very hard (think boxspring with thin layer of pad on top). You can't comfortably walk up both sides of the bed. If you plan to use the ...

  • Will consider them first next time
    By Brian, 07/21/07
    I recently returned from a trip to the Black Hills Area. I drove there from St. Louis. The original plans were to leave Friday evening, drive through the night, and then hang out around Keystone until it was time to check in to my revserved hotel. Well, I was able to get that Friday off so I left in the morning. Realizing that I was going to be ...
