What to do

Mountain exploration: The nearby mountains offer recreational options within driving distance of Pauline.

What campers like
Clean facilities: Visitors consistently mention the maintenance standards at campgrounds near Pauline. "Wonderful campground. Very nice management.

What you should know
Site variations: Campgrounds near Pauline offer diverse camping surfaces and layouts. "The roads in the campground are dirt, rutted, and steep. I am glad we unhooked our Jeep before navigating our RV to the site. The RV rocked and rolled quite a bit. The site was level, clean with full hook-ups," reports a visitor at Foothills Family Campground.
Seasonal considerations: While most campgrounds operate year-round, some amenities have limited availability. "Under construction... Park itself has considerable construction going on with no water access. However the campground was open and sites are nice and spacious," notes a camper at Ebenezer Park regarding temporary limitations.
Reservation requirements: Many glamping options in Pauline, South Carolina and surrounding areas require advance booking, especially during peak seasons. "Book these early - we were here in late June and they were already full until October," advises a visitor regarding specialty accommodations at Emberglow Outdoor Resort.
Tips for camping with families
Children's recreation options: Facilities for younger campers vary by location. "Our family had a great time! Lots of stuff for the kids to do! Bath house clean and laundry facility great! We will definitely be back," shares a visitor at Pine Ridge Campground.
Educational opportunities: Some campgrounds offer learning activities. "My wife and I stayed a couple weeks ago and had a blast. We arrived and immediately met Pebbles (My wife's favorite of the Highland cows). She was the sweetest cow and allowed us to pet, take pictures with her and of course feed her," describes a guest who enjoyed the interactive farm experience at WyldStay Greenville.
Safety considerations: Campground facilities include various safety features. "For safety and privacy, it was the type that can be locked so you don't have to worry about strangers being in the bath facility with you," notes a camper appreciating the bathroom design at Travelers Rest-North Greenville KOA.
Tips from RVers
Leveling requirements: Prepare for uneven terrain at some locations. "Needed more leveling than I had, and I have a lot... the fire ring was full of ash and burnt logs. Power connections were so low to the ground had to kneel to see and read breakers," warns an RV camper at Ebenezer Park.
Site selection: RVers should consider access logistics when booking. "The sites have full hook up. We where at site 50 and it was completely shaded," recommends a visitor who appreciated the environmental comfort at Ebenezer Park during warmer weather.
Connectivity considerations: Work-from-road campers can find reliable service. "Cell coverage was great (att & Verizon), so we had no issues working our 9-5s. Love the bubbling creek next to our site, which was so pretty from our back window," shares an RVer who stayed at Travelers Rest-North Greenville KOA.
