Martin's Landing Campground — Lake Murray State Park

We grabbed sites 52 and 53, for two families! Perfect size and perfect spot right on the water- in cove like area of the lake. The sites are spread out a decent amount. There is a fire pit and grill, for charcoal grilling. There is a wooded area next to these two sites where you can go for a nice little walk. There are bathrooms, with a sink and toilets, cleaned daily, as well as showers. Tons of space for grass games and kids to run free.

This is our 3rd campground to stay at Lake Murray and my least favorite. I was excited to have a pull-through site on the water. However, when we pulled up, someone had parked their fishing boat and pontoon boat right in front of our site at the shore. They could have moved it to the left or right between sites but no, picked right in front of ours. So instead of enjoying my lake view I get to stare at two boats. People here were not very respectful of pets on a leash, not walking through other’s campsites, and turning music down past 11 pm. The interior lots are very crowded, but thankfully I didn’t have to look at those. I can’t speak to the restroom facilities since I didn’t use them. Also, other sites had fire rings, but we didn’t. I will definitely be choosing to stay at one of the campgrounds on the opposite of side of the lake in the future.
