We have stayed at this park many times. As the park has been for sale for the past five years, the owners are not putting any resources into the park. The park is looking old and not as maintained as in the past. The pool is very dirty and was not cleaned the whole three weeks we were there.(There was a black dirt ring around the pool edge the whole time). Staff(other than Cory) are not friendly at all. They do not wave when driving by in the golf cart, or greet you when you enter the office. The grass used to be beautiful grass. It is now mostly all clover so lots of bees. Cost is$70 a night with a Good Sam discount. One issue is if you are coming from US 17 eastbound, you will need to make a left-hand turn into the driveway through heavy traffic congestion. The sites are large and are not on top of each other. The park has full hook ups and has pull thru and back in sites. The sites are large and are not on top of each other. Our site had a concrete pad but the concrete pad was broken up into large pieces of concrete which makes it hard to level.
Ok.... So it was only $35 per night, so keep that in mind! IF you meet the qualifications to stay (military affiliated), this is REALLY close to the Navy Nuke School! Yes - the camp hosts are salty, as are some of the long term residents (like the people in the first spot on the right), but... It's $35! Spots are flat, full power and water, bathrooms MAY now be under construction, and the lady you book with in building across from the bowling alley is super sweet! 😁
I was traveling south and wanted to see an old college buddy. Last minute booking. The campground and bathhouse was clean.
Quick 1 night stay Aug 31, 2023. Fast check in. Nice info packet upon arrival. They even had a free kitchen trash bag in it. They pick up trash at your site. Paved, not completely level, but close. Had enough room to stay hooked up to 36' 5th wheel, plus park a car sideways in front of truck. Just like all KOA's the place is well maintained and spotless restrooms. All employees kind and happy looking. Nice dog park. Had a 30lb propane tank filled at what I would consider a decent price. There were other amenities, but we didn't use them. A little bit of a noisy area, but we've been in worse. Would stay again.
The location is very convenient to most areas in town. We enjoyed the Fun Park next door. Our campsite was extremely close to the neighbor so a fire was out of the question. Bathrooms were kinda dirty every time we went in there
super easy and quick check-in, we only stayed for one night due to the heat but we loved what we got to see of the park! super family + group oriented which was nice for me and my bf since its just us 2 and kids in the tents around us didnt really come back to the primative area until sundown, so we got to sit by the fire and relax! our dogs loved the beautiful trails. will definitely be back in cooler weather!
Very nice clean
Perfect place to bring the camper! Very close to downtown Charleston, the beach, and just about everything else. The staff is very friendly and the bath houses are perfect after a long day. I will definitely stay here again on my next trip south. There are plenty of sites available to pick from, from pull through to back in. Definitely worth checking out if you are in the area.
Nice campsite, full hookups, enjoyed the lightning bugs, great place to enjoy camping and getting away from electronics since no cell phone signal for T-Mobile and no wifi in campground, definitely need to wear your bug repellent
Fishing, kid friendly, climbing wall, rope course, water park, 10 minutes to Charleston and 15 minutes to the beach.
We were here in 2018 and park was great. Not so much now. Several sites are out of commission and the grounds are in bad need of maintenance. No bathrooms,showers,laundry,wifi,cable, and Verizon is sketchy. Host is not very helpful. The place is pretty quiet though with only a few rv'ers staying. Pads are cement and level but close together. Can't recommend staying here even for half the money.
Among the best. Well maintained, very clean and adequate bathhouses, level gravel sites with reasonable spacing. Even WIFi ! Location is very convenient to downtown Charleston and Folly Beach.
I gave this koa 3 stars because it has the least amenities out of all the koas we have been to. It is still a very nice park.
We absolutely love camping at the Live Oak Campground portion of the EBSP. The sites are all spacious, shaded, and clean. The bathrooms are cleaned several times throughout the day (the only thing I don’t like about the bathrooms are the flushers for the toilets - so awkward!). There are trails for walking and biking that are well kept and are ADA accessible. I cannot recommend this place enough. Make sure you have at least one breakfast from Seacow Eatery, enjoy a pizza at Coots, and BBQ from the Briny Swine. McKonkey’s has the best onion rings. For some of the best seafood you’ll eat make sure you go to Flowers just down the road. You can eat it there or get just about anything and take back to your campsite to cook.
I was so lucky to get a spot for two nights in this campground. Lovely camp hosts, pristine clean bathrooms, laundry facility. There are paved trails around the campground, dog park and even a fishing pier. The views are stunning every turn you take. It's incredibly close to downtown Charleston and Folly Beach. I'm so glad I stopped here.
We spent 3 weeks here waiting out the weather to the north in February and March. The folks here were super nice and helpful. The sites were all excellent and not on top of one another. We felt like we had everything we needed.
Great state campground. Water and electric. Less than a minute walk to the beach. Can hear the surf at night. Very clean showers and restrooms.
Full amenities, so price tag goes along. Overall good campgrounds for RV/trailers but overkill for tents.
The bathrooms were clean but nothing special as far a presentation, that goes for the park as well. The cell phone service isn’t very good and neither is the Wi-Fi they offer. The dump station area was an ordeal. With odd placement and only one sewer with a cap that just doesn’t seem to open. We didn’t bother looking for someone to ask about it. You might want to get a sewer site if you don’t have another place to dump on the way home fortunately we’re heading to another campground with a dump station. The park is a little noisy with planes and faint traffic but not to bad. They offer propane onsite which is supposedly operating, but they said that about the dump station. We shall see.
Edisto Beach state park has two campgrounds. We stayed in the beach campground. There is a beach, but it can’t be seen by most sites. It’s the salt marsh that is most prominent, and with rain it gets pretty marshy all over, but the site pads appear to stay above water. At least with this overnight rain. The Live Oak campground suits my taste better. As the name suggests, the sites are nestled in trees and not on top of each other.
Sites were flat with very little leveling necessary. We could hear the waves from the campsite!
When making reservations at James Island County Park we had modest expectations, but we were going to tour Charleston most of the time, so we decided anything close to the city would be good enough. The campground turned out to be very nice. We wished we had stayed there longer to enjoy not only Charleston, but the nature beauty of the park itself. The campground is located in a huge park with lots of amenities. The sites are spacious, covered with trees, full hookups with 50 amp service. There are a lot of shaded picturesque walking and bike trails in the park. The dog park was amazingly big, with a little doggy beach for water lovers. There is a big kids playground with a fun looking spray play fountain. It is located just 15 min drive from the campground to downtown Charleston. It is a great campground to stay when visiting Charleston. We have a video on our YouTube Channel- Summertime RV Rovers- about this park- Great Campgrounds in Coastal South Carolina: Charleston and Hilton Head Island. Please check for yourself. We camped at James Island County Park in a Motorhome.
Love the no commercialism-bike paths and hiking trails a plus-We DID request a back in site a month ago however we were given a busy loop on the road site-oh well- this little island is a time to chill-enjoy the quiet, beauty and sealife-
Is spacious, reasonable, has pul throughs, a food truck on site, , and cable. And beautiful old oaks. And its quiet.
Although there are a variety of sites available we are positioned smack in the middle of families with small and unsupervised children. When we were contacted to confirm our checkin I was told we were in -B8- a “deluxe” water view site that was not on a peninsula at the front of the KOA- We are a busy retired couple with a pup and honestly enjoy people and families- as well as privacy- the gentleman confirming our arrival convey a different setting- on a positive- the hiking trail here is nice and well maintained-
Prior to arriving I was informed that I I was in a deluxe site which was in a quiet area facing the pond. Although there appeared to be many sites opened at the time of our arrival we were escorted to a site situated between a row of cabins , sandwiched between other campers. Although it was not water front as I was informed the site was functional-
Beautiful location! Easy spots to get in and out of, not on top of each other. Great WiFi. Super pleasant and helpful staff. Clean bathrooms, Nice dog run, great food truck. Only down sides were the mosquitoes, the VERY aggressive speed bumps right at the entrance, and the traffic getting in and out of the campground. The highway and downtown Charleston is a left turn out of the entrance, but put your patient hat on and hope for the patience of the other drivers.
