      Mistletoe State Park Campground

      Gorgeous and Tranquil in the Woods

      This place was so perfect and our first camping experience with our new 40 foot RV! Check-in was easy and they even let us change to a pull-through site last minute. The grounds were sooooo gorgeous! Trees everywhere. Walking trails. And of course the lake. We went during fall colors so it was really magical.

      PROS: Clean restrooms, spacious RV sites (they felt very private), many bathhouses within walking distance, friendly staff, nice gift shop 

      CONS: wet firewood and of course you had to buy from them, playground very small- made more for toddlers/preschool age, less than 5 years old, long walk to the dumpsters

      Petersburg - J Strom Thurmond Lake

      Beautiful campsites

      This campground has magnificent views, spacious sites, picnic tables, firepits, power (30 and 50 amp) and water hookups, dump station, bathrooms, and groomed swimming area.

      The site (21) was very easy to pull through and had a wonderful view of the lake. I had to try to see my neighbors at the next site because the foliage separated the sites well. I saw a grounds person actively maintaining the empty sites which explains how well kept this campground is. The access roads are well kept.

      Winfield - J Strom Thurmond Lake

      Very nice place !

      This place has some great sites. Our site was #25. It was a pull through with 30 and 50 amp plugs. It’s a level lot with a grill, fire ring, picnic table and another small table. It’s right on the lake. There is a retaining wall at the water so it’s about a 3” step to the water. We plan to bring a sep ladder next time. Beautiful place to spend your time camping.

      Hamilton Branch State Park Campground

      Great spacious site on the water, lots of privacy

      We arrived at last light, and I am glad that we had daylight while we backed in. Lovely site, spacious. Sites 98 & 99  T off the connector road. Layout it such that your RV is parallel to the road, overlooking the water which is 80- 100 feet away. Your neighbors are a fair distance away, but your head and tail of the RV points to them- so once inside you're not even aware of them. We are 30 foot fifth wheel with F250, and i imagine the back-in would have been more challenging if 99 was occupied.  Nice family oriented park. Water and electric all good, dump station on way out. 

      Did not use facilities, but apparently showers and toilets are a little drive away.

      Wood: We drove out of the park, turned left and found an honor-system wood kiosk on parallel road - just over the railroad tracks. $5 for a small bundle, but it was worth it to us.

      Leveling was not an issue.

      Hosts keep site nice and clean,

      Data: Visible worked great (25 mbs up & down, so no need to break out hotspots, Starlink etc

      Boss RV Park

      A very nice campground

      The sites are mostly gravel with areas of dirt, but mine was level. I was near the bath house and laundry which were both clean and well maintained. The population looks like a mix of mostly long-term residents, with a few mid to short-term. It is a full hookup facility, and all my connections worked well.

      Aiken State Park Campground

      Amazing Find!

      We stayed over on our way to Charleston, SC. We booked it online. We had no hookeups, but water and a dump station is available. There are hiking trails, canoeing, and fishing. The ranger was super friendly and they are pet friendly. We had to switch sites when we arrived due to a space issue. We have a 32’ RV and the site stated a max of 35’ but there was a tent pad that would have interfered with us being level. We were allowed to switch with no issues.

      Petersburg - J Strom Thurmond Lake

      Another great COE campground We love this place

      This time we’re in site 7-first time in this loop. Backing in took a few minutes, not the simplest but achievable for our 30 ft fifth wheel. Campsite excellent- electric & water, plenty big site-fire ring and picnic table

      Also love trail from here to dam wall - did a bit of bush trail cycling. Awesome


    Guide to Jackson

    Jackson, South Carolina, sits in the upper coastal plain region with elevations around 400 feet above sea level. The area experiences hot, humid summers with temperatures frequently exceeding 90°F and mild winters where freezing temperatures are uncommon. RV camping near Jackson provides access to the Savannah River watershed, with several campgrounds offering year-round availability due to the moderate climate.

    What to do

    Explore nearby waterways: Lake Thurmond is accessible from Plum Branch RV Park, providing opportunities for fishing and boating. "This campground is very quiet and right near the water. I enjoyed it and would stay again," notes reviewer Robin.

    Visit military sites: The area offers access to military attractions including Fort Gordon. At Pointes West Army Resort, "we were able to park our 44 ft. Fifth wheel with ease with little assistance from a park host," shares Judy W., making it convenient for exploring regional military history.

    Shop at local markets: The Barnyard Flea Market sits adjacent to Barnyard RV Park, giving campers easy access to vendor shopping. "They have a large flea market next door," confirms Scott M., noting its convenient location.

    What campers like

    Clean facilities: Campers consistently mention facility maintenance as a highlight. At Made in the Shade RV Park, guests appreciate the "immaculate grounds and facilities" with one reviewer noting, "Bathrooms are very clean, loads of hot water and private. A separate laundry room is available."

    Cell service and connectivity: Unlike some rural camping areas, several Jackson-area campgrounds offer solid connectivity. Jan W. reports from Made in the Shade: "Wifi was excellent and we could stream Netflix and Hulu. Great Verizon cell service."

    Pet-friendly environments: Many RV parks welcome pets with dedicated areas for exercise. Made in the Shade offers "plenty of room to run for the dogs," making it suitable for travelers with four-legged companions.

    What you should know

    Site surfaces vary: Many campgrounds feature gravel or sand sites rather than paved pads. At Heritage RV Park, "our driveway was gravel/sand but the patio was paved with a picnic table," according to one reviewer.

    Restrictions on activities: Unlike state parks, some private RV parks have limitations on common camping activities. Heritage RV Park specifies "there are no fire pits and campfires allowed," which may disappoint traditional campers.

    Long-term residents: Several RV parks maintain a mix of transient and permanent sites. At Boss RV Park, one camper observed the "park is made up of mostly permanent RVs and are packed in pretty tight," though they still found it "great for overnight stay at $35."

    Tips for camping with families

    Look for parks with play areas: Some campgrounds offer recreational facilities specifically for children. Kelley M. notes that Made in the Shade has a "nice playground and horseshoes area," providing entertainment options for younger campers.

    Choose waterfront sites when available: Water access can provide natural entertainment for families. At Pointes West Army Resort, one camper shared, "Our dogs loved the water, and the view during sunset was great," making it suitable for family outings.

    Consider noise levels during holidays: Holiday periods can bring increased activity to campgrounds. Bobby J. reported from Pointes West: "Camp grounds weren't too terribly over crowded when we arrived. However, throughout the day people showed up by the carloads to just hang out and party."

    Tips from RVers

    Site selection for larger rigs: Not all parks accommodate bigger motorhomes. Carolina Hill Mobile Home and RV Park offers "large sites" with one reviewer noting, "Kimberly Clark is six minutes away... Zero road noise, large sites, shade trees and laundry room."

    Navigational challenges: Some parks have difficult layouts for large vehicles. One camper at Made in the Shade described the confusion: "We have a 42' 5th wheel and dragging this thing behind us around the campground was quite the adventure... it took us a while to spin the monster around."

    Hookup configurations: Pay attention to utility placements when setting up. At Plum Branch RV Park, a camper noted "sewer pipes stick out a good 6 or 8 inches" and "electric posts are new but have a meter right below plugs, so surge suppressor gets to hang sideways."
