Alston Trailhead
It was very nice! My fiance and I and our kitty stopped for the night, had burgers and went on a little hike in the morning with a gorgeous view. It’s very quiet, well kept. Has 2 porta-potty’s as well. Would definitely come back.
11 campgrounds with availability this weekend
Several RV campgrounds serve the McConnells area with varying levels of amenities. Crown Cove RV Park in Fort Mill provides full hookups with 50-amp electric service, water, and sewer connections for motorhome travelers. Sites at Kings Mountain RV Resort accommodate larger rigs across its 116 sites, while Wateree Lake RV Park & Marina offers boat access alongside traditional drive-in RV sites with full hookups. Kings Mountain State Park provides RV camping options though several visitors have noted uneven terrain at many sites. "Many camping sites are very much in need of leveling. Sites slope from left to right, front to back, and some slope in both ways," according to one visitor.
Throughout the region, campground roads present challenges for larger motorhomes in several locations. The approach to Kings Mountain features narrow access roads where RVs may need to back up if meeting oncoming traffic. Most parks maintain dump stations, with Wateree Lake RV Park and Crown Cove offering on-site sanitary dump facilities. Despite proximity to urban areas, cell service remains reliable across most campgrounds. Charlotte-Fort Mill KOA provides convenient interstate access with pull-through sites, though one camper noted: "There are no fire rings but it claims on their site that you can build one in the gravel." Pet policies vary between facilities, with most allowing pets but enforcing leash requirements and designated pet areas.
"Great for long term camp sites! Very easy to deal with the workers as they are friendly and will take care of you! Pet friendly also. This is a great safe campground."
"We were on a “hill” but since we were close to all the trees i didn’t mind it."
from $68 - $98 / night
"This new park is located at 241 Battleground Road in Grover, NC, just off I-85 at exit 2(Hwy. 216 S)."
from $55 - $65 / night
from $50 / night
"This is a park on the East side of Lake Wateree. Not far off l-77. Has what you need. Full hookups picnic table and a fire pit. The owners are trying hard to improve the park."
"The wifi was great. The beach area is super nice to spend a day on the water with your family. Price is a little higher then the state park but so worth it!!"
from $45 - $55 / night
"I lived here for two years on a long term spot. If short term you will be In a small gravel lot. There are no amenities, no shower houses. No frills."
"Sky's the sinery all just gerogous"
"Breezy's Lake has great fishing access with Electric & Water hookups, even an onsite dump station for longer stays. Check it out and share a review on the Dyrt!"

"Family Friendly and good for people with boats"
"There seemed to be quite a few long term campers but the place was clean. The grass is very nice instead of dirt or gravel pad next to you.
No picnic tables and the WiFi was just useable."
"You often see the owner themselves doing a lot of the maintenance. Plus they check on people, see if everything is going good."
from $40 - $50 / night

When 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.
It’s a small, clean campground but we are next to a busy road (site 28) and also the entrance to the public access of Moss Lake. It’s a tight squeeze for us as a 33’ fifth wheel.
If you ever plan on visiting Shelby / Broad River KOA Holiday Campground and have women or kids in your party, and y'all rent a unit from them, I'd rethink it or keep the door locked at all times. Our visit was wonderful up until the point a maintenance worker walks straight up in here on us.
Tight fit, we stayed here with our 20ft trailer and it is a little tight. The site was at a slight angle and I noticed a lot of sites are the same way. Plus side is there is a security gate with code entry. Easy access to lake. Good clean boathouse and nice full hookups.
I had avoided KOA in the past as I heard not great things about it, but I have to rethink my position after this visit. The staff really seemed to care about the facilities and take great care of them.!
Easy access and nice pool as well as little camp store.
When I moved here in October 2025 Tom and Jen were helpful. The lot however hadn’t been cleaned in quite some time. The dead leaves and pine needles were at least 2 inches thick and I was left to clean them by myself. The amenities are far below substandard and barely work. If you need to shower at the office pray the hot water is working before going. It doesn’t work more than it works. There are always campground wide water and electric issues. The mail carrier delivers all mail to the office and they distribute to mailboxes when they feel like it unless Jen has something against you then she brags to other people in the campground how she is shredding your mail. I moved out in July 2026 and had paid my rent a week early but found a place to move the day after paying and they refused to reimburse the rent. They also raised the 6 times as well as forced all residents to pay for WiFi that was very inadequate to watch tv with so you pay for their WiFi as well as a second WiFi that actually works. I am not telling you to not move or camp here just want you to be informed of what you’ll be dealing with.
I have stayed at brickhouse multiple times, and will stay again in the future. It’s always quiet, and relaxing! No potable water, so make sure you bring plenty with you, no bath houses, only privy toilets.

Shade coverage: Tree cover provides relief during hot summer months at select campgrounds. "Riverside is heavily wooded which provides a ton of shade on the hot summer days. Taylor Creek is newer with less trees providing lots of open space and great for Solar regeneration," notes Chad L. about Wateree Lake RV Park & Marina.

Construction impacts: Facility upgrades sometimes limit amenities. "Park itself has considerable construction going on with no water access. However the campground was open and sites are nice and spacious," notes Kevin A. about temporary conditions at Ebenezer Park.
