Palmer Gulch Activities

Palmer Gulch

The resort is nestled at the foot of Harney Peak in the beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota. Our family resort features a 62 bedroom lodge, 6 resort cabins with first-class amenities, 30 mountain cabins ranging from rustic to deluxe, and a Mt. Rushmore KOA campground with hundreds of sites from shaded tent sites and kamping kabins to delux RV sites.

Palmer Gulch is conveniently located near many famous Black Hills attractions - we are the closest resort to Mount Rushmore National Memorial on the Peter Norbeck Scenic Byway, and a short distance from Custer State Park, Crazy Horse Memorial, Wind Cave National Park, and the lakes and trails of the Black Hills National Forest.

Groups and Reunions

With 3 spacious meeting facilities, an event coordinator, and catering services, we're equipped to handle your group event or reunion with class and superb service.

Whether looking for RV parks and campgrounds or a resort-style family vacation, enjoy the splendor of the Black Hills while relaxing among the Ponderosa pine covered hills, clear blue skies, and sparkling streams of our hillside retreat here at the resort.
