Santee Lakes Campground

Jennifer Fox

We stay at Santee Lakes a few times a year because it’s close to home and a good place to open up the RV, connect to hookups and get organized for our next adventure. The lakefront spots are our favorite and the fishing is also nice. The campground has a lot of amenities and several spots for long-term campers, which is great! But over the years, it seems like more and more spots are being used as living quarters. There are dilapidated canopies, dusty furniture and so much clutter, you’d think it was a homeless encampment. Given the site cost seems to average $90 a night, I would expect better. One of the sites is a few spots down from us and they appear to have at least three cats that are allowed to wander outside. My dog has to stay in the RV with curtains closed so she won’t annoy other campers, so much for the lakeview I can barely enjoy! I have talked to campground staff about this before and they don’t seem to think the issue is problematic so I guess we will save our money next time and stay at a county campground or Lake Jennings.

For just $6 US Dollars you will spend a very nice time with family and friends for the whole day! No smoking or hookah is allowed but unfortunately I was seeing people not only smoking cigarettes but also pots from the smell!! Hopefully, this will get controlled in a better way🙏 The workers there are amazing, keeping the park clean, we prayed for them and thanked them for their hard working🙏💐

management is ineffective in having problem RV's in the campground. Dogs are allowed to run loose and use your site to take care of toilet needs Parties and barking that last well into the early morning hours, even after turning in videos of these issues campground Management does nothing
