Best Glamping near Fair Play, SC

This campground was an awesome find as it is tucked in beside the Tallulah River only 3 miles from the Tallulah River Gorge which offers site seeing and hiking. The campground is set up for RVs, primitive tent sites, covered tent shelters, and cabins that are for rent right on the the river. They also offer indoor and outdoor showers and have a recreation building along with a park for the kids. Pulling in to this campground gives you an exotic feel as bamboo, pine trees, and awesome fire pits fill the scene. The hosts are amazing and down to earth and will go out of there way to make sure you are enjoying your vacation from reality, all the while giving you your space and privacy. I am not sure what events they hold on other holidays, but on the 4th of July, they had an awesome classic rock band that played for a few hours and shot off fireworks. If you want to camp or glamp...this is the place!

Yurt camping was 5 stars here. The yurts were very private and spaced out. We went during the week and we were the only ones there. There was a private sandy beach area to fish or play from. If you’re looking to go yurt camping I highly recommend staying here. Yurt 6 looked the best.

Great park to visit for a night. Has a beach. It is lacking trails to explore compared to other parks. Yurts are super nice. Warm in the summer though. Yurt 6 has its own private beach area ;)

Georgia state park. On lake Hartwell. Nice sites. Nice bath houses. Small store in office. Yurts are fun! Quiet.

Water water everywhere.  On the Georgia side Tugaloo State Park is Located on Lake Hartwell on the Georgia/South Carolina state line.  

Getting to the campsites is pretty tight but once you are parked, it is just beautiful overlooking the lake.  Lots of fun for families who enjoy the water.  Also you can see fishing boats zoom to their fishing location at night.  Peaceful and calming rest from the corporate life!

We love this park! We've been for Halloween twice now and out little guys loves it! The staff is so kind, and the garbage pick up twice a day is great! I will say, compared to other state parks, these campsites are TIGHT! Be prepared. We've come across this with other state parks in South Carolina. The facilities are clean, and the nature is beautiful! Can't go wrong with this campground!

This gem is on Georgia South Carolina line and off the beaten path.

Hartwell Lake is a man-made lake bordering Georgia and South Carolina on the Savannah, Tugaloo and Seneca Rivers. The dam and lake area boasts 8 campgrounds and 11 day-use facilities that are operated by the US Army Corps of Engineers. The Hartwell Project was originally authorized for hydro-power, flood control, and navigation. Later, recreation, water quality, water supply and fish and wildlife management were added. Surrounding vegetation allows for plenty of shade, and the 962 miles of shoreline provide numerous swimming beaches, picnic areas and boat ramps.

Fishing is one of the most popular activities at the lake. Sought-after species include largemouth bass, bream, crappie, catfish, striped bass and hybrid bass.

The lake appeals to boaters of all kinds, whether their specialty is canoeing, sailing or motor boating. Coves and areas of quiet water provide water skiers with excellent surfaces.

Swimmers will find sand beaches and designated swim areas along the shoreline.

Really enjoyed the lakefront campsites. We stayed at site 7 which is a pull through. We had camper and extra car with boat and kayak and fit with a little extra room. Able to kayak right from campsite. Campground has over 100 sites. None of the lake front were bad, some were low level, some had fenced railing with a little drop. All had great views some interior lots had lake views. Some interior lots were close together. Bath houses were very clean and spacious. Have a couple of hiking trails. I did the Sassafras’s Loop trail which follows the lake shore most of time and great views the rest. Our dogs loved all the space, no swimming due to temperatures in the 40s. Lots of stars at night. Very clean and well kept park. Camp hosts were helpful. Very nice staff at the Visitor Center, registration area. They also have cabins with docks and yurts as well. Great views from them as well. Will be back in warmer weather.

Camp here with a Summer Camp group of 65+ to the pioneer site. Easy to reserve online, the site has one large covered pavilion next to a water pipe and fire ring. We used this area to cook. Down the hill from the site is the water front property with plenty of clay beach to swim. The site has 3 clean squirrel's nest shelters and at least 8 flat tent pads. Great size for large groups and plenty to do (insider's tip: there is a bathroom 5 min drive down the road at the ranger station open 24 hrs :p )

Took my daughters and a friend of theirs to Tugaloo. The friend had never been camping. We had a nice trip even though we were not very prepared for the cool temperatures. The girls went swimming and mini golfing.

Its very clean, and handicap accessible. Lots of bathrooms with showers. They are close by no matter where you camp. We camp here all year round. Most camping spots are well shaded. Easy to bring a boat, kayak and SUP. We really enjoy this campground.

Lots of boats on the lake in summer but there is awesome beach access from the campsites. Great spot for summer!

This campground is one of our favorites. It's so relaxing and pretty much every camping spot has a beautiful view.

This campground is very nice for a weekend getaway. The shower facilities are very clean!! The lots are pretty good size and they have a lot of options. This is a non-specific campsite campground so you can’t choose your site. some of the roads leading to the site are rough because of roots pushing through the paving.

most campsites have views of the lake and access directly to the stoney beaches. Lots of mature trees make shade an easily accessible feature. Water, power and cable at the sites with grey water dumps very numerous.

Lowing the away from it all atmosphere of Wildlife, peace and quiet and water. This is your campground.

Dever fishing, nature all in one relaxing place.

Recent upgrades of the loops make parking your RV a breeze.

Lowing this campground and the surrounding town of Lavonia!

Lots of trees and trails. Beach, playground and great boat launches.

The kids and I stayed here for a weekend (mid March) to try out our new camper. We got a waterfront site and it was gorgeous! Not as big as some places we have been, but large enough. Some of the non-waterfront sites appeared to be MUCH smaller.

The restrooms in our area were spotless and cleaned multiple times per day. My son said the ones near the beach area had a few spider webs, but considering it wasn’t even remotely warm yet, they probably weren’t being maintained as often as the campground ones just yet.

Staff was friendly and helpful, fishing was so-so (from the back of our campsite, anyway, and probably moreso due to our lack of skill than actual fish quantity). They have recently repaved the roads and it was very easy to get around. There are two playgrounds: a larger one by the beach and a smaller one in the campground area (which also has a huge field).

Our spot was level left to right but had a slight slope front to back.
