U.S. Route 95 passes nearby and the community is located about a mile (1.6 km) south of Tensed, which was originally Temsed (De Smet spelled backwards). De Smet has a post office with a ZIP code of 83824. As of the 2010 census, its population was 175, and its elevation is approximately 2,600 feet (790 m) above sea level.
