Holly House

Holly House is located in the beautiful heart of the Black Hills, nine miles between Crazy Horse and Mt. Rushmore on Highway 385. Guests will enjoy almost an acre of our scenic property that backs up to a national forest. Enjoy the scenery of our beautiful grounds with deer in the backyard nightly; go trout fishing in the stream out back; or just take a nature walk. Holly House welcomes hunters and skiers in the winter. Holly House offers guests the excitement and variety of bed and breakfast vacation living with a unique twist. Each of our five themed suites offers the latest in creature comforts and conveniences with jetted tubs in all but one room, and each suite offers its own unique character and flavor. Spend Christmas with us each and every day of the year in our two-room Christmas Cabin located in the backyard by the stream. From adventurous and intimate to festive and cheerful, there's something for everyone to enjoy!

Holly House offers a romantic getaway or a corporate retreat! Enjoy coffee on the back deck, listening to the stream and watching wildlife in the backyard while awaiting breakfast in the dining room or in your own room. Guests may also choose to watch TV in the main room, and the built-in BBQ grill and big fire pit are available for all of our guests to use. Snacks and drinks are put in your room upon arrival. Dawna has been chosen cook of the week for the Hill City newspaper!
