Great campground in the Francis Marion National Forest... Only 10-15 sites right on the water in the middle of nowhere but still only 30 minutes from Charleston SC. Electric and water at every site, boat launch, fishing pier, lots of shade, huge sites.

I cant speak for the camping but the waterway and grounds in general are beautiful! Loved my time here! ADD: Just visited again 5/10/22, the water is higher and the flowers are in bloom. Beautiful place and out of the hustle and bustle to camp! If nothing else visit the waterway and take a few pictures while passing by! If you have a boat great place to launch!

This place is a tranquil spot on rte 17 between Mt. Pleasant and Georgetown. It's a boat landing and a campground. Not only that, it is on the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway. Best to book online through Recreation.gov. Tent sites available. Careful...water does go over the bank during flood times. Most weekends are totally booked. Annual and Lifetime Passes accepted.

Very nice campground!! It is close to a lot of wildlife viewing sites. Being on the waterway was wonderful! I saw a lot of birds and dolphins. The shower was ok and truth be told I am glad there was one!! I will be back just not in July, it was very hot in my tent lol! Oh yeah, put up your food because the squirrels got my banana and trail mix out of a zipped lunch bag!

Questions & Answers

Why does it take months to fix water here ? Somebody is a bad manager or this would have been fixed long time ago.

It's due to a lack of state funding... They do the best with what they have... I'd say just be thankful that they haven't closed it down... And at any rate, you're going camping people!

When are the plumbing repairs supposed to be fixed? We just got a closure notification on our reservation.

There are two buildings that have restrooms. Last year we went and had a closure notice as well but only the restroom at the boat landing was closed.

I saw a review that stated no parking on the Tent sites. Where is the Tent site parking in relation to the sites? Would there be room at the Tent parking for my Truck & Boat (21ft boat)?

David Jackson | Mar 26, 2022

There is a row of parking spots next to the open area for tents. There are designated tent lots. The distance is close but I'm not a good guess of distance, maybe 50 feet. The parking spots are regular car size so you wouldn't be able to fit the truck and boat in one spot and there are only enough parking spots for for the number of campsites, maybe one or two extra. I don't know if there is another option of where to park your boat aside from getting a regular RV site.

Do you have monthly prices?

Kim Cutlip | Oct 27, 2021

It's 28 dollars for electric hook-up spots and 20 dollars a day for non electric (tent) spots. I think that's year round. I believe you can only stay for 2 weeks each month.

How much is it for non electric tent site for 2 weeks!!!!!?????

20@day as far as I know, you might be able to strike a deal with the ranger since your staying so long.

To the best of my knowledge, there is no dump fee above the camping fees. If you are looking to bring in an rv, not camp but just dump, you may need to call directly at 843-336-2200.

How do u pay for the campsites?

Robert Winkles | Apr 26, 2018
Michael Ratledge | Apr 27, 2018

Camping fees can be paid in cash at the fee station on Buck Hall Landing Rd or online, where you can reserve the tent or camper sites that allow it. Unfortunately, I don't know what the URL is, but you should be able to find it doing a Google search for "Forest Service Campground reservations" or similar. If you are asked which USFS it's in, use "Francis Marion National Forest".
