1 campground with availability this weekend
Cabin rentals along South Carolina's coastal area near Georgetown include options at Huntington Beach State Park Campground and Hidden Marina & Campground. Huntington Beach cabins offer electrical service and basic amenities for overnight stays near the ocean, while Hidden Marina's cabins are positioned along the Sampit River with water access. According to one visitor, "They have really nice cabins on the water. A boat ramp and marina for boats. Really great place to stay if you want to fish around Georgetown SC or just explore the history of Georgetown." Most units include standard beds, basic furniture, and access to shared bathroom facilities, though amenities vary significantly between locations.
Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. The Francis Marion National Forest offers more secluded cabin accommodations with limited utilities, while oceanfront options are found at Myrtle Beach Travel Park and Ocean Lakes Family Campground. KOA-style cabins can be booked at Mount Pleasant-Charleston KOA and Myrtle Beach KOA, typically featuring more comprehensive amenities including air conditioning. One camper noted about Hidden Marina cabins: "The cabins are not well kept and you need to bring your own toilet paper and sheets. They are not cleaned very well either." Most cabins permit pets, though specific restrictions may apply depending on the campground.
Most cabins require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Hidden Marina's cabins have minimal furnishings, while KOA cabins typically include more amenities but still require personal items. On-site camp stores at locations like Huntington Beach State Park and Myrtle Beach KOA provide basic supplies, though selection is limited. Food Lion grocery stores are accessible from most Georgetown-area cabin locations for more extensive provisioning. Cooking facilities vary widely between properties - some offer only outdoor grills or fire pits, while others include small kitchenettes with basic appliances. Water quality concerns have been noted at some facilities, with one camper reporting that at Hidden Marina "the water smells like rotten eggs or rotten meat on any given day."
"A refuge from the commercial feel of Myrtle Beach, but only minutes away from major attractions, shopping, and event venues."
"This State Park is in one of the best locations we’ve seen. Nestled in a huge wooded setting, set back from the beach."

"Kid and pet friendly. Wish it had a dog park. Very large camp store, large laundry facility and water park. Very fairly price considering the he amenities. We’ll be back."
"Sites are reasonably spaced and the campground is next to the beach. Small store, ice cream parlor, and pizza restaurant that will deliver to your site."
"Very nice park! We had ocean front spot site 695. Spot was sandy and looked a little sketchy to back into, looks as if someone got stuck."
"The park was huge, seemed like a thousand spaces. Would be very overwhelming in the summer time. There were also permanent homes. Each campsite had decent room and a pavilion with the picnic table."

"It was February, so not packed full, but a fair amount of “winter camping” enthusiasts in the park. Typical of a KOA, sites are rather closely packed."
"This campground is in a great location. Just 3 blocks from the beach. They have a shuttle that runs every hour."
"Its right on the trail, it also allows for you to drive right up to the campground and park your car, set up camp and then head out for a hike."
"My buddies and drove our trucks off the normal road to find ultimate privacy. We didn’t stay on a set camp ground, with no cell service and no one bothering us we got to simply relax."
"We stayed in the camping cabins and loved them! The bathroom was super clean, the sites were very nice and the waterway and amenities were really awesome!"
"They offer bike rental, along with kayak/paddle boat rentals. There’s a great dog park our pups loved. We paid a little extra for a deluxe site with full hookups and a lake view."

"This is a pretty good RV park the Myrtle Beach area is one of our favorite places to go to RV parks and this is one of the ones that offers the ability to rent golf carts and also go close to the beach"
"Myrtke Beach Travel Park (MBTP) has super friendly staff to assist you with reservations and check -in/out."
"It was a wonderful experience with the staff providing activities, especially on the weekends. There are 4 pools and a water park for the kids."
"But the following were still still open: Lazy River (Heated), 2 outdoor and 1 indoor pools (heated), 1 outdoor and 1 indoor jacuzzi, mini golf, basketball courts, gaga ball, Tennis Courts, and in the outdoor"
from $60 - $225 / night
TravelerWe were traveling with two large dogs and looking for a pet friendly site. This is a people friendly site so many game playing areas swimming pool and clean manicured lawns with a lake view on some sites.
ScoutSuper cheap hidden gem for tent campers in Myrtle beach area! The pool is amazing. Campground is huge, no neighbors but still friendly faces around. Staff is very helpful and welcome. Quick 5 minute walk to the beach. They also rent golf carts for getting around town!
ScoutIt was quiet and plenty shaded with all the trees. A little stagnant with not a lot of breeze, though. The roads are also pretty narrow and they could cut back some of the trees to make it easier to back in the campers. It's tight in some spots!
LegendIf you're looking for a rustic RV depot on the water's edge with limited amenities, but an absolutely pristine view of Lake Marion, Harry's Fish Camp is a great spot, as long as your expectations are managed, as this is more of an outdoor fishing paradise than it is a polished RV resort. So if your idea of the perfect camping trip starts with launching the boat before sunrise, spending the day chasing trophy catfish and striped bass on the legendary Lake Marion and returning to camp for a fresh seafood dinner overlooking the water, you'll feel right at home. Tucked away in the quiet community of Pineville, Harry's is one of those classic Santee Cooper fish camps that has earned its reputation through generations of anglers rather than flashy marketing. The atmosphere is relaxed, authentic and refreshingly unpretentious.
The campground caters to both RV campers and anglers, offering full-hookup RV sites, bathhouse facilities, showers, laundry, a dump station and pet-friendly accommodations. The real stars, however, are the waterfront amenities: two boat ramps, four fishing piers, a fish-cleaning station with running water and electricity, a well-stocked tackle shop and convenient boat storage. There's also a sandy swimming beach nearby with a designated swimming area for families looking to cool off after a day on the water. While the campground isn't luxurious, it delivers exactly what its guests come for: easy access to some of the best freshwater fishing in the Southeast.
Harry's location places you in the heart of the famed Santee Cooper lake system, encompassing more than 170,000 acres of world-class fishing and boating opportunities. Whether you're targeting largemouth bass, catfish, crappie or striped bass, you're launching directly into one of the country's premier freshwater fisheries. Birdwatchers and paddlers will also appreciate the surrounding cypress swamps and quiet backwaters. If you need supplies, Billy's General Store is just a short drive away for fuel, groceries and last-minute essentials, while Harry's own restaurant is well known locally for its fried catfish and traditional Southern cooking.
Insider's tips? Here's a handful: (1) Arrive early if you're planning to launch a boat during peak fishing weekends as this place turns into a 'traffic jam' on the water from 8am onwards; (2) If available, request one of the waterfront campsites for easy access to the marina and beautiful sunrise views; (3) Bring plenty of bug spray during the warmer months as mosquitoes can be incredibly active around the marshes; (4) Don't leave without trying the fried catfish dinner at Harry's restaurant ... trust me, it's part of the whole experience while staying here; (5) If you're bringing your own boat, take advantage of the on-site fish-cleaning station before heading home; and (6) If you're visiting for several days, consider hiring one of the area's experienced fishing guides to learn the seasonal patterns of the Santee Cooper lakes.
Happy Camping!
TravelerWe stayed 5 nights in a two room camping cabin with our two dachshunds. This campground has been around for a long time and it shows. They do an excellent job at keeping the campground neat and clean, but some of the little things are falling apart and they haven’t made any updates in a while. This koa offers a free service - a shuttle down to the beach. At the time we visited there, the city was dredging the beach and had the public access that the koa drops people off at blocked off. Instead of dropping off at the access that was open, they took you to the one that was blocked off and made you walk to the next public access which was several blocks away. We were disappointed in this since we’re older. Myrtle Beach koa has been a favorite campground of ours and we’ve stayed there many times, but each time we go, we feel like there’s no attention to detail and things are starting to get run down.
TravelerBeautiful park with lots of trails and beach access! Well stocked Camp store, laundry facilities, bath houses, fire rings and picnic tables at each site. What else could you asked for?
ScoutReally great campground Convenient to Surfside beach and Myrtle Beach. Beware of the airport though. That’s why I don’t give it 5*. The first planes fly out around 6-630am. It’s fun to watch but really loud consistently all day. The park is so nice and convenient that the planes are worth it. Just beware the sites in the 200/300 range are far more private
ScoutI’ve been coming to this campground since I was about 5. My grandparents camped here, my parents now own a permanent place here, and we just purchased a camper to vacation here. It’s a wonderful community feel! There’s activities for all ages and the grounds are well kept.
ScoutHelpful staff, very clean site. Good amenities, nice store. Easy to get too from Myrtle beach.

"The beautiful beach is just at your doorstep and nature on the other site. We loved the combo," notes one Huntington Beach visitor.
Wildlife viewing: Morning hours optimal for spotting local fauna in the wetland areas. "Do not miss saying hi to the wildlife on your way in. The egrets, herons, and gators are a beautiful sight heading to the camp sites and beaches," recommends a regular visitor.
Historic sites: 3-mile drive from many Georgetown accommodations to downtown historic district with buildings dating to the 1700s. Mount Pleasant campers can access nearby plantations via scheduled transportation. "They also had a free wagon ride to a nearby plantation a couple of times a week," explains a visitor at Mount Pleasant-Charleston KOA.

Protected natural areas: 16,000+ acres of coastal ecosystems at Huntington Beach State Park. "Very sizable campground with great beach access, trails and marsh area. Bring your bikes to truly enjoy the environment," advises one camper.
Evening entertainment: Golf cart parades are popular at larger oceanfront campgrounds from 9-11pm. "Rent a golf cart and ride around. Make sure to decorate it because there is a cart parade every night from 9-11," suggests a visitor at Pirateland Family Camping Resort.
Quieter alternatives: Francis Marion National Forest offers significantly less crowded camping experiences. "My buddies and drove our trucks off the normal road to find ultimate privacy. We didn't stay on a set camp ground, with no cell service and no one bothering us we got to simply relax," reports a forest camper.
Family-friendly environments: Planned activities for children at larger resorts. "The lifeguards in the splash pad area had a game of walking tag going on with all the kids. This helped break the ice between all the kids and my kids met a lot of friends," shares a family at Ocean Lakes Family Campground.
Site variations: Premium vs. standard locations within the same campground can differ dramatically. "We had a campsite with a concrete pad and full hookups. The concrete pad was very nice to have because the sand was hard to keep up with," explains an Ocean Lakes visitor.
Water quality concerns: Test before consumption at some facilities. "The water smells like rotten eggs or rotten meat on any given day. I would not recommend drinking," cautions a visitor. Many campers bring drinking water supplies.
Booking windows: Reserve 4-6 months ahead for prime summer weekends at popular coastal campgrounds. "Fills fast, so make reservations well in advance," advises a regular at Huntington Beach.
Traffic patterns: Golf cart congestion common at larger oceanfront resorts during peak season. "There is actually golf cart traffic at night because there are so many golf carts. Really! People sit in traffic and high five each other as they go by," reports one camper.
Water activities: Multiple options available within single resorts. "They have a HUGE water park and countless other amenities. The best part is that it's on the ocean in an area where the beach isn't crowded," notes a visitor at Carolina Pines RV Resort.

Safety precautions: Lock valuables at larger campgrounds. "When you check in they give you a paper saying to lock your stuff up like coolers and bikes. We never had any issue with anyone messing with our stuff," mentions a Pirateland visitor.
Proximity planning: Consider location within large resorts. "Our site was very close to the lake and we had a great view. We were also right beside the pool and playground area so it was convenient to walk over," explains a family at Mount Pleasant-Charleston KOA.
Site selection: Request detailed information about pad construction and hookup locations. "Level sites with full hook-ups, some paved. Sites are reasonably spaced and the campground is next to the beach," notes a camper at Myrtle Beach Travel Park.
Seasonal considerations: Winter camping provides significantly more space and quieter atmosphere. "We camped here this weekend. Rain finally stopped and Sat and Sun were sunny and cool. We love this park to walk the beach, watch the birds and just relax," shares a winter visitor.
Access roads: Some campgrounds have unpaved entrances that become difficult after rain. "The road in is rough. Not paved. About a mile long. Hold on," warns one visitor about accessing certain marina-based campgrounds.

It was a wonderful experience with the staff providing activities, especially on the weekends," explains a long-term visitor.
