"We didn’t have any neighbors in the surrounding spots.
The pool area looks super nice, but it was a little to chilly for us to spend any time in the pool."
". 😢 The sites are huge and along the lake where I camped, they are angled so that you don’t really see much of your neighbors."

ScoutShort takes:
• Better to camp here during the cooler weather
• If you don’t have a yearly beach- access pass, it’s expensive
• Very crowded during warm weather
• Make sure to air-down.
• Don’t forget bug spray
Camping here can be very hit-or-miss, depending on the time of year. I would recommend only during the cooler months. Feb-March, Sept-Nov. That’s about the only time you can hope to avoid a chaotic, party scene.
I camped here in March and had a great time. Daytime beachgoers were mainly fishing, walking their dogs, shelling, etc. There were half a dozen other campers, everyone was friendly and quiet.
My trip in late April didn’t go as well. The first morning I awoke to the sound of a dozen children from the site next to me playing in the surf, shrieking and screaming at 5:30 am. Saturday the beach was packed with day-trippers with a line of trucks parked at the crest of the beach from one end to the other. Constant vehicle traffic up and down the beach. Lots of young kids running around, not paying attention to their surroundings, people walking on the dunes. Many vehicles got stuck in the sand because they didn’t air down. Lots of competing, loud music.
The next night, there was a family of 20+ people in the next site who warned us they were a loud group. At that point, we packed up and left. I wasn’t expecting that kind of scene until Memorial Day.
Erosion continues to eat away at the beach and it probably won’t be long before camping is prohibited due to lack of room. The beach used to be much wider.
TravelerThe campground is well located if you want to visit Ocean Isle, Sunset, or Calabash. It’s clean and reasonably well maintained.
ScoutBeautiful landscape reasonable pricing
LegendVery nice size sites. Nice clean bathrooms. A cabin rental. Horse shoe pit and corn hole. Fishing dock. Sandy fairly level sites. Bike and Canoe rentals.
RangerMyrtel Beach State Park The Myrtle Beach State Park has a nice Campground tucked away behind the beach. Some sites are a little further away, but still close enough to get to the beach by foot. Bath Houses are typical State Park style. Most of the sites are at a 90 degree angle to the road with makes it difficult to get into with a larger RV.
ScoutWhen we got to Myrtle Beach State Park.they were very friendly. We pitched a tent made campfire,took a shower ate and roasted marshmallows..great time
TravelerLots and lots of trees. Need to drive very slowly to campsite. All sites sand based. Lots of trees on some of the camping sites one would need to navigate around. Our site was on a corner, level and easy to get into - 34 ft class A with toad. Lots of room to park our car. Sites have picnic table and fire ring. At first we were thinking “ we wouldn’t come back” as the park has a bit of a worn down, overgrown with trees, shrubbery look. However, we adjusted to that and decided it was a good stop.Lots and lots of dogs. We travel with a dog and lots of places, trails to walk. Off season so, our dog enjoyed a run on the beach everyday. It’s noisy during the day with planes flying over (nearby airport) &barking dogs. Especially over the weekend. Much quieter during the week. Fishing pier, two stores, easy walk from campground to beach. Full hookup sites. We would definitely come back.
ScoutI talked to Mr. Levy to inquire about camping on his property last Oct (2024) and was informed that the property was not open for camping because of needed repairs and improvements. No timeframe given as to when or if the site would reopen.
ScoutI've been here at different times of the year. I really enjoy camping here in December and January. Less people and the park is so nice.
