Set along the South Edisto River, Aiken State Park is a haven for fishing, canoeing and kayaking.
A scenic 1.7-mile canoe and kayak trail winds its way down the south fork of the Edisto River, attracting paddlers from across the region.
Aiken State Park has a history as notable as its natural beauty. During the Great Depression, the park was built by two Civilian Conservation Corps companies, one of which was an African-American detachment of the C.C.C. Their work has withstood the test of time and can still be seen in some of the remaining structures and interpretive signage.

Great location! This RV Resort has great amenities and staff along with their location! Awesome gym and club house plus beautiful pool! Staff are very friendly and welcoming! Check them out!
ScoutWe found this campground while traveling through Columbia SC and made a late evening reservation. We were able to reserve online and even pick our camping spot. It has full hookups and we were able to find the spot easily even in the dark. The owner called to make sure we had no questions and to explain where to pick up our packet. She was very nice and made us feel welcomed. It appears that they are a new campground and will have even more amenities soon. It was also very quiet. We will definitely be staying here on our subsequent trips through SC. I highly recommend this campground!
GuideWe called with very short notice looking for an overnight site. Though the campground was booked, the owners so graciously allowed us to park in the overflow parking which included water & electric. We even arrived at 10pm, and they were waiting at the gate for us! We were so pleased with the owner’s generosity and hospitality. We will definitely be back to take advantage of the swimming pond, paddle boats, fishing & playground!
TravelerOvernight stop, kinda tight getting off the 2 lane road into the entrance. Not too far from 95. Traffic was noisy as we had a spot right up front. Works for an overnight but nothing more.
Guide
Stayed for 2 nights in Site #3. Was called prior to arrival regarding checking in. Missed "closing time" but went to site and checked in next morning. The Park fee is not included in the camping fee with is a bit of a pain, but I actually received a partial refund since the Senior rate was not included in my reservation.
Plenty of well marked trails to hike, a nice lake, beautiful spring, and if you are interested a thorough Museum about the Civil war prison camp that was located on the grounds. (Note: there is no swimming at the spring)
Sites are level with good power and water. I felt they were a bit close, but we are not campground people. #3 seemed one of the most private, even though right across from the Hosts and near the Bathhouse. The Bathhouse was very clean and new.
Scout
This campground was quiet and tranquil. Large oaks and mature trees. Camping paradise. Immaculate grounds and facilities. Water, electric and gray water dumps at each site. Washers and dryers. Gravel sites, but it’s a place I hate to leave. Pet friendly and great staff. Nice playground and horseshoes area as well!
Traveler
This was the perfect place to stop for an overnight stay to break up the drive to FL. Our full hook-up site was almost perfectly level with a fire ring and picnic table. We stayed in a back-in site, which we were grateful for since they are all in the shade. Our grandson loved feeding the goats and donkey so make sure you bring some fruit and/or veggies. Claire was very communicative prior to our arrival and even stopped by our site after we settled in to see if we needed anything. They are expanding by adding a bathhouse and possibly more sites in the future. They have weekly movie nights and a couple of corn hole boards. I believe there's a walking trail as well but we didn't have a chance to check it out since we were in and out so quickly. If we had to list a con, I guess the only thing would be the bugs....but that's typical of the south in the summer so we were already prepared. We will definitely be stopping by again for a longer stay.
TravelerCountry setting in a great little RV park that is just getting started. Full hook-ups. Easy access and parking. Owners were very hospitable and available. Sweet animals and love the farm feel. Definitely plan to stay again.
GuideNeeded a quick stop and contacted them last minute. They had a pull thru spot and were great at accommodating us. Shower, bathroom and laundry. Wow!
ScoutHad a one night stay. New hookups, easy access and being right next to the farm animals was very fun! The rooster was pretty expressive overnight too!
Scout
Very flat wide open lot within minutes to the Aiken horse park and downtown. My only recommendation is to have it better marked so guests know exactly where it is upon arrival. Maybe a tiny little sign?
Traveler
The sites are quite large and lots of trees. The rangers are very helpful and the camp host was terrific.
GuideThis place was well thought out when it was being built, lots of space, great level sites, nice dog park. Fitness center and laundry are new and nice.

Fresh blueberries!
ScoutOur stay at Outside Inn Campground was truly awesome! The sites are very nice, easy access, and they also have"buddy sites" for when you are traveling with others. The owners (Chris& Clair), their daughters (Macy and Caroline), and the varous animals were great! We definitely recommend every RVer add this place to their list!
TravelerMy family spent 8 days at Outside Inn Campground in Santee SC. This Campground is now our Campground #1.
This is a new Campground that was developed with the Campers in mind.
The owners are hands-on in the operation and customer service, not necessarily in that order.
The sites are well placed throughout the Campground. They have established trails throughout the woods.
On of the main attractions are the animals: cows, ducks, chickens, goats, a donkey, turkeys and roosters.

Stopped on the way to Maggie Valley NC. Nice half way spot from Fl. Full hookups available. Our 35 ft rv fit perfect in the spot. They are dirt/sand sites. The camp store wasn’t opened when we were there for the 1 night. Right beside a cow farm to look at. A fishing pond is available but the water was super murky. Everyone was friendly. Fire pit available. Would recommend. Super cool playground with an awesome swing. See video. 😊
ScoutCAUTION: The directions provided by The Dyrt to this location are incorrect. It is not located on Sand Hill. So please use Google Maps to find the location or you will be down a long dirt road with no place to turn around.
Black Pearl Farms fit most of our expectations. However, I did make some poor assumptions regarding the information. We were in spot 3 which had "access to power and water". Which was true, but not what I assumed. The site was a few yards away from a wash area to get water from and there was a 12 volt power cord outside to plug into.
Our dog loved having the space to roam around and the camping spots were in a wooded area behind the farm. We stayed in number 3, but if we return our preference would be for number 2.
Anyway, it was a nice spot once we arrived.

Located behind the flea market Dirt sites : lots of water flowing through during rainy weather Water,electric and sewer at sites Large pull through sites Easy access to bathrooms and showers Friendly staff at front office Good weekly deals Big rig friendly Used several occasions now
ScoutGreat place to set up camp. The landlord is very attentive and is always looking for a way to go the extra mile. It is very quiet with well behaved children at play. I highly recommend!!!
ScoutLarge gravel sites most can accomodate 40 ft RV some smaller pads as well but plenty of room between your neighbors. Bathrooms are very clean, loads of hot water and private. A separate laundry room is available, The park is quiet and well patrolled by sheriff, so very safe. Stayed for three months on a travel nursing assignment, great on site management. Wifi works well, I was able to stream netflix with it.
GuideA very peaceful and friendly atmosphere in a country setting. The owners are very friendly and well mannered country people. Everyone that we met were polite and liked sharing. It does have a fishing pond and the guest are welcome to use it. I would recommend everyone that comes through St. George to visit this lovely place whether it’s one night to rest, a few days to get away, stop in. Pet friendly and has a playground for the kids to play .
ScoutWe stayed here for 6 months and hated to leave. The manager Morgan was so kind and attentive to everyone's needs. There was plenty of room to run for the dogs. Our 50 Amp site was level and spacious. Laundry machines on site and private showers! The bathhouse was very clean! Gravel/dirt pad and roads all well maintained. Wifi was excellent and we could stream Netflix and Hulu. Great Verizon cell service. Wonderful gem of an RV park! The location was quiet and beautiful, surrounded by woods and fields.
ScoutBeautiful, well maintained site beside the Edisto river, just as advertised! Private, peaceful, just what we were looking for.
ScoutSandy Oaks is a wonderful park to stay in, whether overnight or extended stay.. friendly and knowledgeable owners who are very welcoming. Couldn't ask for better security. Would definitely recommend!!
Guide
These spots were huge right next to highway but noise doesn’t bother us. Stayed for a week. Really close to town.
