What you should know
Seasonal considerations: Summer brings higher occupancy at lakes. "Quiet. On the lake. Diamond in the rough...though more of a piece of coal than a diamond but that is okay, not into fancy and all the amenities, we camp to get away from society," notes a visitor at The Point at Lake Hartwell.
Site leveling challenges: Some parks require additional equipment. "Our site- A5- was super unlevel. I felt unsafe with our fifth wheel's two left tires up in the air after auto-leveling," reports a Carolina Landing camper.
Limited shade: Several RV parks near Comer feature open layouts. "The sites are close together throughout most of the park. The park also has lots of hills which can be a challenge for some RVs," notes another camper about Carolina Landing.
Varying cell service: Connectivity differs by location. "Cell Service: AT&T was minimal, T-Mobile was minimal," reports a visitor about coverage at one park.
Tips for camping with families
Pool amenities: Hoppin Horse Farm RV site provides family-friendly spaces. "Definitely NOT roughing it. The sites are spacious and private considering the size of the park & with all the convenient hookups readily available. Just an all around perfect family campground!" shares a visitor.
Kid-friendly activities: Some parks organize special events. "We visited over the 4th of July weekend and they had all sorts of activities going on. Bingo, parade, fireworks, hotdogs and more!" reports a camper about Carolina Landing.
Playground access: Multiple RV parks near Comer include play areas. "There are a lot of activities for campers such as mini golf, a swimming pool, a basketball court, a volleyball court, and a playground," notes one visitor.
Bike-friendly roads: Several campgrounds feature safe cycling spaces. "We saw a lot of kids rode their bikes occasionally," reports a camper from Carolina Landing.
Tips from RVers
Site selection strategy: For larger vehicles, request specific areas. "Very tight between rigs if you're in a 30'+ rig. Water pressure and hookups have worked great," advises a Carolina Landing camper.
Arrival timing: Coordinating check-in with office hours matters. "When you enter the park make sure you stay to the left of the sign. We made the mistake of going straight our first time at this park and almost lost our 5th wheel at the turn around by the lake," warns a camper.
Elevation awareness: Hilly terrain challenges larger rigs. "The hill getting up to our site was steep. This place is full of big rigs, however, it is not conducive to them. Every turn is tight," cautions a visitor about one park.
Utility planning: Full hookups aren't universal. "As of right now, they are in the middle of construction to transfer over to a KOA campground. The only tent sites they offer are primitive and it's a bit of a walk to the bathrooms," notes a Georgia RV Park visitor.
