Our stay in the cabins was a delightful experience. The cleanliness and peaceful surroundings stood out during our visit. However, our cabin layout wasn't as comfortable as we had hoped, which made some activities a bit tricky. The proximity to Mt. Rushmore was a huge advantage for our family vacation.

Our cabin had a charming rustic feel, but the layout was a bit awkward. One bedroom had the TV while the other had the fridge and microwave, making it difficult to enjoy those amenities comfortably together.

We had a great time staying in our family cabin, enjoying the clean and well-equipped space close to attractions like Mt. Rushmore and Keystone. While the location was fantastic and the atmosphere peaceful, the configuration of our cabin made it a bit uncomfortable for family viewing and we struggled with hard beds. Overall, it was a unique and refreshing experience, especially for those who appreciate a more rustic getaway.

My stay at Holy Smoke Resort was quite an experience! I fell in love with the rustic charm of the cabins, and the cleanliness was impressive. The proximity to attractions like Keystone and Mt. Rushmore made our visit even more enjoyable. However, the negative experience with the smell in some cabins and the strict rules dampened the experience a bit.

We really enjoyed our stay at the cabins. The setting was peaceful and close to attractions, which was a major plus for our family. The owner was super nice and accommodating, which made everything even better. However, the room arrangements could have been more convenient for our family setup, and the beds were a bit harder than we prefer. Overall, if you enjoy a rustic experience, these cabins are a good choice!

I had a lovely stay at Holy Smoke Resort, enjoying the rustic charm of our cabin while being conveniently located near attractions like Mt. Rushmore. The cabins were clean, and the outdoor areas were perfect for relaxing. However, I wished there were more kitchen utensils available, and the lack of proper closet space was a minus for me. Overall, it was a good experience, especially for group accommodations.
