I stayed at the campground for roughly a month or longer. The campground itself is well kept and clean. There is not much to do at the campground. Supplies can be picked up roughly 15 to 30 minutes away from the campground.
RangerOffice was very friendly. They take you to your site which we always so appreciate. Hookups are modern, nice dog park, propane tank for easy fill ups. Fresh donuts anytime, pizza and chicken wings (bone in and bone out) til 6. Very clean and well maintained. Site was perfect for our 43’ Motorhome and dolly. Would definitely stay again.

Eenjoyed staying there, staff was awesome and really did a great job keeping the guest happy. The 4th of July events was awesome and was a full day of contest and ended with a DJ kicking the tunes. Recommend to all to give them a try!
TravelerStayed over 4th of July weekend. Couldn’t believe how quiet it was for a holiday. There isn’t anything around at all. They offer a pool but no other activities (they did have some 4th activities but it was all seasonal). It backs to the lake so if you have a boat it’s nice. But when we went on the lake we saw many other campgrounds that looked nicer. There is one dumpster that we had to walk to to throw trash away. No pick up or closer locations. Not level sites. Mostly seasonal which is fine but not a great place or easy to get in/out of if transient. Other campgrounds closer to Clemson. No town nearby at all.

I love this place, with nice wide sites and many with views of three ponds nestled in the woods. The place was squeaky clean and the bathhouse very well designed. There are fun and funky places to visit nearby. The spring wildflowers are starting to bloom and I remember the scent of honeysuckle everywhere. A great blue heron hangs out at the fishing ponds.
Traveler
I did a quick overnight here, as is custom when I travel for work, and it was spectacular. I stayed at Trailside Camp Site #2, which is one of their remote, primitive sites at the North Lake and all I can say is wow. The views were spectacular, and watching the full moon come up over the mountain was something I will never forget.
The site itself was spartan, as is expected in a primitive site but it did have a fire ring and a picnic table. Site 2 is right on the lake, with plenty of dead wood to get a fire going. The hike in is about 2ish miles of moderately difficult trails, with some amazing views along the way, including a walk across the North Lake dam. The hike was well worth it though.
Scout
Foothills was great clean grounds friendly guest great views pleasant atmosphere and privacy when needed I defiantly will be back thanks everyone and staff.
Traveler
Excellent management. Clean park.
RangerThe owners and host are amazing at what they do! They’ve planned so much for this campground that our kids have had 5 days of things to do each day. We’ll definitely return and mark this as a favorite campground.

Jake from the Dyrt here! This campground is new to the Dyrt and open for reservations through the Dyrt!
LegendScenic campground, quiet, nice people. Free firewood was nice with a donation. Though $38 a night and more than the other state parks surrounding south Carolina such as NC, AL, GA, MS. Bathroom was clean and showers were nice. Level campspots!
Guide
Better bring a cart or a bike. It’s a long way to everywhere here. But they have it all. Golf, swimming, axe throwing, archery, skeet shooting. Trails for hiking/biking. Nice sites close to the lake. Shower house is just adequate, barely.
ScoutNice relaxing camping spot. The tent pad on site 24 was kinda small but all the others looked plenty large enough. Was not expecting the campground to be sold out this time of year so I would definitely recommend reserving a spot far in advance. The price was a little expensive but there’s a lot to do in the state park.

TravelerMy Husband, Niece, Nephew & I just got back from spending a wonderful weekend @ The Point! Such a great carefree, quiet and peaceful place to stay!! Before I continue with this 5* Review I will say prior to even turning into the campground I started having flashbacks of the area when my husband & I had visited once before over a year ago(we did not stay, we just toured the property) & my anxiety kicked in real bad! The campground was under a different name/ownership & it was an absolute "DUMP" to say the least! So as we were driving up the road leading to the campground this weekend my husband was like "this area looks familiar & I know you haven't booked us @ that raggedy campground we looked @ a year ago", I was like "OMG, I've booked the wrong place" However when we turned in I immediately noticed the new & improved changes to the campground! They have a new name/new owners & they have done some major improvements & you can tell they care about the property! The grounds have been cleaned up, the basketball/tennis court area can now actually be used. The new pool area is under construction & you can tell it's going to be great! The office/campground store is stocked with plenty of essentials you may need for your stay! They even have prepackaged Smores kits for you to purchase. The clubhouse area was nice. They had Karaoke& Potluck night while we were there! The laundry/bathhouse area was also nice/clean! As far as the actual campsites there are not any concrete pads but you can tell they have tried their best to make the sites level& better accessible by clearing up the area& removing some of the trees. We were in site G4(which was considered a larger site, we have a 38ft 5th wheel), my nephew was in site F5& both sites were easy to get into with no issues. They offer tent sites, tiny cabins & a few waterfront sites. We had our boat, they offer a decent area for boat parking & the boat ramp/dock to access beautiful Lake Hartwell was ok! The ramp/dock area could use a little facelift but it was still decent & I'm sure they probably have plans to upgrade it in the future! Overall Kim, Mike, Angie and the other staff were absolutely amazing & very accommodating! We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves & will definitely return to The Point & recommend to our friends/family!
LegendIf you are looking for a near perfect lakeside camping experience in the 'Low Country' here in South Carolina, than you may have just found the perfect getaway! Tucked away from main roads and a solid 20 minute drive from the nearest traces of civilization (the itty bitty town of McCormick), Hickory Knob State Park, which sits right on the Savannah River / Lake Thurmond and provides the setting for truly one of the most perfect camping escapes I have ever encountered.
There's about 60-70 individual campsites here, but you would be hard pressed to count them all on account that there is so much foliage that separates each individual campsite that despite the # of sites, you are left with a very intimate and secluded feeling. While some of these well-secluded spots can get you just about as close to the lakeshore as possible (without infringing upon the land boundaries itself), most set a decent 10- 15 feet above shoreline and offer a private and simple-to-navigate pathway to the refreshing lollops of the lake's gentle rippling waves.
Each site is apportioned with the basics - long drive-way with corresponding flat base platform (either perfect for RV or very amenable to the largest of tents), fire ring, water spigot and picnic table. While there's a handful of campsites that appear to be close cousins to the one next to it, most sites feel independent from one another and offer up enough space to forget your next-door neighbors. Further, I counted 3 separate loops (or communities, if you will), each with their own facilities.
Apart from the greatest amenity being the lake itself, the park also offers a simple, yet splendid boat jetty with an easy-to-navigate round-about. Unlike many other state parks I have visited in the country, this one offers boaters many easy places to stow away their boats, when not in use on the lake. Further afield, there are plenty of trails to explore the deeper, less frequented side of this overgrown lakeside forested haven.
If there were any drawbacks at all, it would simply be the less than mediocre bathrooms and showers that the state of South Caroline seems intent on not fixing (think back 50 to 60 years ago to what bathrooms might have looked like back then and then come present day to find exactly the same thing, without any repairs (and perhaps any sanitation) being made whatsoever). With all of the tax dollars that the state collects, on top of the fees paid for camping in these amazing state parks, you think the state would be able to afford building and maintaining better and more modern facilities for its overnight guests (what is it that they say about hospitality in the South?!).
In sum, if you are looking for some really good seclusion, right on the lake, don't mind the overgrown nature of this campsite, have a boat, and perhaps older children that don't need playgrounds (and other man-made distractions) and can do without direct access to civilization, then this may very well be a perfect spot for you.
Insider tips? Here's a few: (1) Because the nearest town of McCormick is a bit of a hike to get to (think at least a 20 minute drive on slow moving, winding country roads), be sure to bring everything you need with you, but if you do need any groceries, there's a Food Lion that has just about everything you might need; (2) When you grow tired of trying to conjure up that next meal from the depths of your Cordova cooler, then check out Michelle's, which is one half family restaurant - where I never believe any waitress who answers the question 'What is the best thing on the menu' with the response 'EVERYTHING!', but I will admit, she was absolutely right - we tried the pizza, wings, salad bar and hamburger one night - all were equally amazing - and one half happy hour / karaoke bar that apparently the entirety of McCormick shows up at after 8pm every night, which was pretty cool to experience; (3) When / if you head into the town of McCormick, take note of the Ice ATM machine there - it's fantastic and super cheap, so be sure to stock up on your ice there; and (4) If you are wanting to 'whet your whistle' after a good hard day of kayaking, then head on over to nearby Back Paddle Brewing for some really nice local craft beers.
Happy Camping!
GuideThe campground is well maintained, but the sites are on top of each other. That being said, access to hiking and downtown Greenville is nice. Someone has been burning plastic upwind of us for two days. Not nice!
ScoutVery welcoming when we got to the park, and good directions to get to our site. As others have said, the road is quite twisty, but we did not have any problems pulling our 34 ft travel trailer. Our site, number 36, was level, but a few of the sites appeared to be not so much. Quiet while we were here, and great hiking nearby. We will come again

LegendParis Mountain State Park
Very well maintained, very old CCC built camp near Greenville, SC.
On my way in I thought my gps had taken me astray again! But Paris Mountain Stare Park is literally in the back of a neighborhood in Greenville. Quite a cool little park complete with 4 lakes, back country camping and CCC architecture. The roads are skinny and the campground a bit small. The sites are mixed with pull throughs, back in and tent only. Mostly unlevel, some very unlevel . Surprisingly there are a few sites that will hold a long, big camper. If you pick a middle site you will see your neighbors a lot. Two old , mostly maintained showerhouses.
We arrived on a Thursday, so not that busy this late in the summer/autumn. The campground half filled for the weekend. Could have been due to weather coming in. Lake Placid is the first lake you see when you enter the park. The park office and gift shop are located in the old CCC building. There’s a sand beach, canoe and paddle boats rentals and a very nice bike maintenance station in one of the pavilions.
Lots of trails that are sort of marked. We mostly frequented the trails near the campground and Lake Placid. Watch out for bikers , they use most of the trails.
Overall I will visit again , it’s a quaint , busy State Park, worth the drive.
ScoutThis is our fav state park. It has pull thru and back in sites, and a lot of tent sites. The ada site is NOT flat and a trip hazard. The hiking trails are beautiful. There's mountain biking trails also on the weekend.
ScoutReally nice and comfortable. Very quiet and peaceful considering how close the city is. Lots to do. VERY clean restrooms. Can't wait to go back
ScoutManager was clueless of the requirements for a 32 foot class C with a tow vehicle. Tried to put us in two different campsite that a mini ultra lite would have found adequate. Obviously no camping experience and wasn't qualified for the job. Franchisers will hire people they know rather than qualified folks I guess. He wanted to tell me how hard he was working to find us a suitable site, but I was disgusted after two trips around the campground. Would a third trip work? Dunno and don't care. After such poor service he informed mw there was no way they would refund me for not providing an adequate site. Bad english perhaps, but hard to describe being charged for zero service. We liked this place under the previous management.
Guide
It was super hot when we went, but the park is full of a lot to offer. The beach is nice and was never crowded. We hiked and biked the trails. They are well maintained. There is only one bathhouse for the campers and only 2 showers and 3 potty’s in there for all 28 campsites. Beautiful sunsets! We will def be back, just not in the heat of summer.
ScoutWe are 5 weeks into full time and it’s been a little rough. The owners here took us under their wings and helped whenever needed. Very clean restrooms and laundry room.
ScoutGreat mountain biking in the middle of Greenville County! Several small lakes originally built for Greenville's water supply have awesome stone works. CCC history still in use. Camp Buckhorn feels like a miniature Cades Cove from the Smokies. Also just minutes from Greenville's foodie scene if you get tired of hot dogs and s'mores.
