Several state parks and private campgrounds near Hollywood, South Carolina offer cabin camping with varying amenities, from rustic one-room structures to furnished, air-conditioned units near the beach or river. Edisto Beach State Park Campground offers furnished cabins with air conditioning, some positioned near the beach while others are on the marsh side. Colleton State Park features cabins with AC that are particularly suitable for families with young children, positioned near fishing spots along the Edisto River. Mount Pleasant-Charleston KOA provides camping cabins with clean bathrooms and waterfront views. "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," notes Julie L., a KOA visitor. Most cabins include basic furnishings like beds, tables, and chairs, with outdoor fire rings or grills for cooking.
Rustic cabins and deluxe units are both available throughout the region, with advance reservations strongly recommended, especially during summer months. Point South KOA offers pet-friendly cabin options with enclosed dog areas and well-maintained grounds. James Island County Park provides cottage rentals with access to extensive recreational facilities including a water park, fishing areas, and hiking trails. Camelot Farms Equestrian Center features cabin camping with the unique option of horseback riding lessons and beach trail rides. Most locations operate year-round, though peak season runs from late spring through early fall when temperatures are ideal for outdoor activities. Cabin sizes range from small one-room structures suitable for couples to larger multi-room options that accommodate families.
Most cabin rentals provide beds with mattresses but require guests to bring their own linens, pillows, and towels. Kitchen facilities vary significantly between locations, with some offering only outdoor cooking options while others include microwaves, small refrigerators, and basic cookware. The Mount Pleasant-Charleston KOA maintains a well-stocked camp store for forgotten items, while Edisto Beach State Park has a grocery store at the park entrance. Visitors staying at Colleton State Park cabins should note the proximity to Lee's, a burger restaurant about three miles from the park. For longer stays, bringing additional supplies is recommended as on-site stores typically stock only essentials and may have limited hours during off-season periods.

TravelerFriendliest and most helpful hosts I've ever met. Stayed 1 night on a return trip from FL to ME. Ordered pizza that was delivered to our site (delicious) eating leftovers all the way home. I was at the dump station finishing up and ready to go when one of the crew asked if that was my water filter still at the site. Saved me the cost of filter, regulator, and quick disconnects. One more minute and I'd have been gone. Thanks for chasing me down.
ScoutThis campgrounds has an abundance of camp spots that are well spaced. About 1/4 of the spots appear to be occupied by long term guests.
It has an old swing set for kids and a large/life-size chess set near the pavilion. They also have a pool that closed Oct. 1st.
Some camp spots have a concrete slab, while others are only grass. The water faucet is old but functions and the whole place is just tired…like they are doing enough to get by.
The staff were polite enough but not overly helpful. They’ll answer questions, but if you need them to actually do something…they might get around to it but don’t hold your breath.
They have strict dog rules but yet have a few cats roaming freely. One cat perched itself on our steps, repeatedly meowing and wanting in. We shooed it away, but it kept returning. We talked to a few different staff about it and each said the cats were for the mice and dismissed our concern.
This place was priced higher than the other nearby places, but we gave it a chance because of higher reviews and supposed to be closer to Charleston. But the traffic is horrible on hwy 17, the place is rundown/tired, the staff lean on the side of indifferent and we’re still a good 45 minutes from most attractions.
I wouldn’t recommend staying here…there are better options.
ScoutGreat location. Great facilities
GuideWe love the Live oaks campground in Edisto Beach State Park. Level sites with plenty of privacy. We are in site 120 this trip and we have stayed in sites 118 and 122 on previous trips. these sites back onto the salt marsh which gives you some incredible scenery just behind the site
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.
GuideWe stayed here while attending the Highwater Music Festival. We brought our bikes, but it’s not safe to ride out if the campground to the festival or the beach, so we drove them to a spot outside of the grounds and then ride from there.
So much to do inside this campground and park! It was very busy, but we didn’t feel it was too loud - still plenty of opportunity to enjoy nature.
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!
GuideThis is our absolute favorite campsite of all time! It is very private and secluded, but right around the corner from the beach. It is for tents and small campers only, as we barely had enough room to get our pop up backed up in the site with the truck. The site slopes up, evens out, and then slopes right back down to the fire ring and picnic table. Our pop up is a 10-foot box and it was just enough room to get it on the level spot without sloping one way or the other. It was also just wide enough for our awning to be set out with a little room to walk around. Once situated, there is plenty of room at the picnic table and fire ring to sit around and park bikes, etc.
There is plenty of shade and you can hear the waves crashing on the beach. The site also has water and electric hookups, but we try to bring our own water since you can still taste the salt. It is so relaxing!
This is on the Beach Campground and the only problem we noticed it is that the outdoor shower for washing off sand from the beach has low visibility because it is on the road side of the bathhouse and not the beach side. The result is people clogging up the showers with sand because they don't even see the outdoor shower in some cases.
The park has some amazing nature trails to bike and hike as well as a nice educational nature center.
We always enjoy our stay here and will definitely continue to book here as long as we can.
ScoutIt's been an amazing trip. Got to see a alligator for the first time in my life. It was awesome. The staff was awesome,had a great time enjoying the beauty of nature
Cabin rentals near Hollywood, South Carolina provide comfortable shelter for visitors exploring the region's natural areas and waterways.

Overnight accommodations serve as a convenient base for exploring both inland attractions and coastal destinations, with most cabin options concentrated at established parks and campgrounds.
Fishing opportunities: At Colleton State Park Campground, cabins provide direct access to the Edisto River fishing spots. "Great place to launch your kayak. Very clean and up-kept campground," notes Cheryl H. The riverside cabin sites offer excellent views, with one reviewer pointing out: "Site 11 was riverside and had a great view! If we could pick any site, we would probably pick Site 9 as it had a slightly better view."
Outdoor adventure activities: Mount Pleasant-Charleston KOA cabin rentals include access to a variety of water activities. "The park offered fishing, kayak/canoe/paddle boat and paddle board rentals. They also had a free wagon ride to a nearby plantation a couple of times a week," says Ashley W. The property features an outdoor adventure area with multiple options for families seeking activities beyond beach visits.
Horseback riding experiences: Cabin lodging at Camelot Farms Equestrian Center offers unique equestrian activities. "The highlight for us was the ability to ride horses. They provided us with two names of instructors, one of whom graciously squeezed us into her schedule and gave our girls a two-hour riding lesson in their covered arena. They also have trail rides to the beach available," notes a reviewer from The School for Y.
Lake access and boat rentals: Cabin guests at Mount Pleasant-Charleston KOA appreciate the waterfront amenities. "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," shares Ashley W. The lakeside setting provides fishing opportunities and water recreation without leaving the property.
Beach proximity: Edisto Beach State Park Campground cabins offer easy beach access, a major draw for visitors. "We had a magical time at Edisto. The Beach campground was just steps from the ocean. Opt for sites 1-12 or 50-75. Shelling was incredible-especially if you walk towards the inlet around low tide," recommends Katie F. The park features cabins on both the beach and marsh sides.
Park-wide amenities: Cabin rentals at James Island County Park include access to extensive recreational facilities. "Should you need to stock up on any supplies while here, there is the county park store over in the RV Campground, but for anything more substantial, just about 5 minutes south of this CG you'll find a Walmart Supercenter," advises Stuart K. The park features "a 50 foot climbing wall, obstacle challenge course, 1K sq ft bouldering wall and slackline" according to the same reviewer.
Reservation timing matters: For cabin rentals around Hollywood, advance booking is essential. At Point South KOA, cabins fill quickly during peak periods. "We stayed here overnight on our trip home from Florida. Checked in at dark and was guided to our site by staff," notes Robert L., highlighting the helpful guidance even for late arrivals.
Cabin quality varies significantly: Some parks maintain cabins better than others. "I would not recommend the cabins. They are not clean or updated. Which is a shame because they could be really cool," warns Wendolyn P. about James Island County Park, contrasting with their positive review of the RV camping areas.
Seasonal conditions affect comfort: Summer heat impacts cabin stays in the region. "Can be really hot in the summer with little breeze," notes Tracy F. about Givhans Ferry State Park. Mosquitoes can be problematic, particularly near water areas, with Sandy M. reporting "Huge mosquitoes" at Edisto Beach State Park.
Playground access: Point South KOA cabin rentals offer family-friendly amenities. "Our kids loved the gem mining and playground," shares Christa C. The campground features activities specifically designed for children, making it a good option for families seeking structured recreation.
Water activities for children: James Island County Park provides water-based recreation beyond standard swimming. "Situated just north of where your RV is anchored is the Outdoor Zone featuring a 50 foot climbing wall, obstacle challenge course, 1K sq ft bouldering wall and slackline that will have you and your brood enjoying these backwoods in no time," notes Stuart K.

Some cabin rentals include designated pet areas, though specific pet policies vary by location.
Kitchen provisions: Cabin kitchenettes typically have limited equipment. "Most sites have a lot of debris still on them. Dump station inconveniently located," notes Sandy M. about Edisto Beach State Park Campground. Bringing essential cooking supplies is recommended as on-site stores may stock limited items.
