RangerWhen I’m traveling through the area, I do my best to stay here. It is a peaceful and well kept campground. It is an adult and a kid friendly environment. It’s one of the few places you can feel safe. I highly recommend this place.
Traveler***BEDBUGS BEDBUGS BEDBUGS!!!! Went to bed at 10:30pm, woke up with my arms and shoulders burning from being bit an hour later. We checked the mattress when we arrived at 8:00 and didn’t see anything. They are CLIMBING OUT OF THE WALLS. We called and spoke to the park ranger on site after leaving 2 voicemails already with no call back, she acted and responded with no concern or with no intent to have the problem corrected before the next family comes in to stay. As far as bringing your camper, little pee Dee is amazing. We rented the cabin on site for 9/18/26-9/20/26. We brought our own linens, brand new in the package. Completely useless now. With all of our clothing and towels also.

GuideThis is a lovely park but construction in progress at campground during our stay so heavy equipment running during weekdays
GuideCute little park we really enjoyed it!
TravelerThis well known roadside attraction, South of the Border, has a hidden gem of a campground! They have a lot of sites, from back-ins to pull-throughs, full hook-ups, nightly rates from about $49 including tax (with discounts, and they offer a few). Nice sites with picnic tables and grills, we saw three bathhouses (clean!), and a coin-operated laundry. Entire campground is gated with security, and there are restaurants, shops, and gas stations. Quiet, fun, just off I-95 at the SC/NC border.
TravelerWe stayed at Standing Pines RV Park in Hartsville, South Carolina and were really impressed. This is a newer park, but you can tell the owners put a lot of care into the property. The grounds are clean, quiet, and surrounded by tall trees, which creates a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere while still being close to town. The sites are level, spacious, and easy to back into. Full hookups worked perfectly. Cell service was strong enough for remote work and streaming. The park roads are wide and well maintained, which makes everything simple when arriving or setting up. The overall vibe is calm, safe, and welcoming. The owners are helpful and available without being intrusive. It already feels like a comfortable home base and it is clear the park is being built the right way. If you are passing through Hartsville, working in the area, or looking for a quiet place to stay for a while, Standing Pines RV Park is a great choice. Very clean, very relaxing, and we will definitely return.
RangerThis campground is one of my regular stops. It is well kept.
Cabins near Hartsville, South Carolina range from lakeside accommodations to wooded retreats, typically located within state parks or private campgrounds. Winter temperatures in this area average between 35-60°F while summer months can reach 90°F with high humidity. Sandy soil conditions throughout the region create well-draining campsites but require proper tent stakes and ground cover.
Fishing opportunities: Little Pee Dee State Park offers excellent fishing in Lake Norton where local anglers regularly catch bass and bream. "My family and I did a hike everyday that we stayed here, for a total of 3 hikes. The scenery is gorgeous, especially the hikes that over look the lake," notes one visitor about the park's combination of water activities and trails.
Miniature golf access: Cane Creek Park provides free mini-golf for campers, an uncommon amenity for campgrounds in the area. "The mini golf is free and a blast. The swim area is only open on Saturdays or you can drive to the day use side and be over there," explains a frequent visitor who stays for week-long trips.
Winter stargazing: The lack of light pollution around Cheraw State Park creates excellent astronomy conditions during winter months. "We were lucky enough to catch a great view of Jupiter merging with Saturn last night. Super cheap. We stayed four nights for under $100," reports one off-season camper who visited in December.
Birding hotspots: The region hosts multiple bird sanctuaries with documented sightings of warblers, woodpeckers, and waterfowl. "Wonderful campground located minutes from the beach! Bird sanctuary so birders will LOVE this campground! There is also a really nice museum type of visitor's center," shares a Cheraw visitor who appreciated the wildlife viewing opportunities.
Quiet weekday camping: Most cabin rentals and campsites around Hartsville experience significantly lower occupancy Sunday through Thursday. "We stayed in the camp juniper group area this time, but have camped in the regular campground in the past. The regular sites are usually full, and very close, but the lake front sites are gorgeous and worth being close to neighbors," explains a Cheraw State Park camper.
Seasonal swimming: Several parks offer designated swimming areas with seasonal availability. "The lake is beautiful. Awesome walking trail that takes you to the other side of the lake where there is a playground. Lots of swings and benches and picnic tables around," notes a winter visitor to Cheraw who appreciated the walkable access to recreation areas.
Trail variety: Poinsett State Park features multiple trail systems for hikers and mountain bikers with varying difficulty levels. "Poinsett State Park has some of the best hiking and biking trails in the Palmetto State. You could spend multiple days camping here and have a chance to hike different trails every day," states a reviewer who valued the trail diversity.
Affordable lakeside locations: Waterfront cabin accommodations near Hartsville typically cost $20-40 less per night than similar properties at coastal parks. "I have stayed here multiple times. I really love setting up on the water sites and having my kayak and fishing gear ready to go. The golf course is excellent and price friendly," shares a Cheraw visitor about the value of lakeside sites.
Seasonal mosquito conditions: The wetland areas surrounding many cabin sites require proper preparation with repellent from May through September. "We camped in the camp juniper group area this time... the only drawback to the group area is that it's not directly on the lake, and there are no bathrooms," explains a Girl Scout leader at Cheraw.
Limited grocery access: Most cabin-equipped campgrounds require 15-20 minute drives to reach grocery stores. "There aren't any stores around, so get your food and supplies before you arrive. It was only about half full when we camped," advises a Little Pee Dee visitor who appreciated the quiet but noted the isolation.
Road quality concerns: Several parks have access roads that present challenges for larger vehicles. "Wow! Road to campground is horrible! Very narrow, trees hanging over it, dirt, but huge holes! Obviously needs to be graded," warns a Little Pee Dee State Park visitor who drove a 38-foot coach but eventually found a suitable site.
Varied bathroom conditions: Restroom facilities range from recently renovated to basic across different parks. "Bathroom clean, but Grade C. Great walking trails. Just too crowded with sites, especially the inner loop, on top of each other," notes a Little Pee Dee camper who stayed in a camper van at site 34.
Off-peak value: Winter and spring weekday reservations often provide the best combination of value and campsite selection for family cabins. "We loved it here. Barely anyone here in December, so it feels so nice to be out of our house but not needing masks constantly. When it isn't off season they have cheap boat rentals," shares a Cheraw visitor.
Playground proximity: When booking cabins with children, request sites near playgrounds to maximize recreation access. "The camping spots were clean and well kept... It felt very private even though there were people all around. The bathrooms and showers were amazingly clean and they had a giant heater you can turn on over the showers when it's cold outside!" explains a Swamp Fox Campground visitor who appreciated the family-friendly facilities.
Activity programming: Several parks offer scheduled weekend activities for families during summer months. "Holidays usually have some activities for kids. The mini golf is free and a blast," notes a Cane Creek visitor who regularly books week-long stays with children.
Wildlife education: Multiple campgrounds provide junior ranger programs and wildlife viewing opportunities. "We enjoyed the variety of hiking options here. It would be great if the state parks service could direct some funding to repairing and widening the roads and repairing some of the trails that were damaged in the 2015 flood," suggests a Poinsett visitor.
Site selection strategy: For larger RVs over 30 feet, book pull-through sites when available as many parks have tight turns. "The park road is very narrow and uneven with lots of large pot holes. The road to the campground is a little better, but also very narrow. It would be difficult to pull off to let another vehicle pass without fear of ending up off the road or hitting a tree," warns a Poinsett visitor with a larger rig.
Security considerations: Several campgrounds offer fenced perimeters with controlled access. "We stopped here for an overnight and were thrilled by the facility. It's perfect for an overnight or a day. Plenty of paved pull though sites. Fenced in and safe," notes a visitor to Pedro's Campground who appreciated the security features.
WiFi availability: Connectivity varies significantly between parks, with some offering rental hotspots. "There is no WiFi here, and cellular internet is spotty. There isn't a camp store, but the Ranger Station does have ice, firewood, and a small number of souvenirs for sale," reports a Military Park Shaw AFB Wateree Recreation Area visitor describing the limited connectivity.
