Not worth the price at all

Had to share a campsite with another person to park my vehicle, Mini-golf isn’t included, It’s $2 per person extra, I didn’t check in any of the other activities, Probably extra.

Freeway close

It’s what you expect of a KOA. Convenient, friendly and right off the freeway. This one was clean. Check in was easy. The bathrooms were clean. Water pressure was decent. Great place for a quick overnight. Little bit noisy for a long stay.

Quiet and clean

We spent several days here last summer. It is a quiet place, easy to find and close enough to the little town. My brother lives on the other side of Lake Hartwell (5 minute drive) and he took me out on his pontoon! What a BEAUTIFUL lake with many private islands to pull up onto. We visited a local Goat farm for a fun time and fresh cheese! I loved this little KOA.

Good choice near Clemson

Great KOA to stay at near Clemson University. It's not on Lake Hartwell, but it is near it. Be sure to check out the camping cabins.
