            5 ⭐️ Hospitality— Great RV Park

            We called with very short notice looking for an overnight site. Though the campground was booked, the owners so graciously allowed us to park in the overflow parking which included water & electric. We even arrived at 10pm, and they were waiting at the gate for us! We were so pleased with the owner’s generosity and hospitality. We will definitely be back to take advantage of the swimming pond, paddle boats, fishing & playground!

            "roughing it" in a small secluded campground.

            I spent a great couple of days here mid-week in mid-June. There was one other occupied campsite (out of 9) the first night and I had the whole place to myself the second. No showers, no wi-fi or cell sevice, no dump station, no electricity, and a common water spigot-just what I wanted. No reservations either. 

            There were people who came to fish in the pond (more of a pond than a lake) and I had a nice swim.. There are two trails. A short one (about a mile) around the pond and a longer 5.6 mile loop. Great trail.

            Be sure to check the website for problems beforehand.   The water was out when I was there (actually it was restored just as I pulled out!!!).

            So all in all, I great place if you want a rough campsite with few others around.

            Great camp site!

            We stayed here for our son’s first birthday, in campsite 30! It was beautiful and we felt like we had plenty of privacy. Our site had a trail attached to the back of it which was really nice for hiking and it was perfect distance from the bathroom! On the topic of the bathroom, the toilets were CLEAN! And I mean we were there for 24 hours and the bathroom was cleaned at least twice. Really nice, they might look a little scary on the outside though but don’t mind that any bit.

            For people that love hammocks, site 29 (right next to ours) has a bunch of perfect hammock trees. If we go again we will try to stay in that spot! Great place to stay.

            Needed a quick stop and contacted them last minute. They had a pull thru spot and were great at accommodating us. Shower, bathroom and laundry. Wow!

            Nice free spot

            We enjoyed this free trailhead parking. No bathroom, and the train only woke us up once in the night. Only one other van there with us, so very quiet and peaceful. Lovely walk on the Palmetto trail in the morning. There are also “walk-in” campsites right behind the trailhead signs in the trees.

            Super great spot!

            Very flat wide open lot within minutes to the Aiken horse park and downtown. My only recommendation is to have it better marked so guests know exactly where it is upon arrival. Maybe a tiny little sign?

            Small and peaceful under the pines

            We stopped heading south and north along I-95 to and from Florida.  Very easy off and on I-95.  Plenty of available spaces in off-season.  The campground is small and quiet.  Camp Host was very helpful. Sites were spaced reasonably far apart but there is no privacy between.  Not all sites have a water view, but most appeared fairly level. Not all sites have sewer access.  Our only complaint was lots of smoke from campfires and grills. Would stay again.

            Peaceful, good trails

            We were at site 46, which is near the entrance and the camp host. Short walk to the bathhouse directly behind. Site has good trees for a hammock and near a path down to the lake for fishing/picnic/swimming. Beware there is a sharp drop off across from the site, so make sure whoever is backing in has a spotter out front.

            Amazing site, minus the train

            This site is awesome. The scenery is beautiful and it is super easy to access. You can hear coyotes howling at night.

            The only problem is the train. It woke us up at least 4 times last night. You can see the train from your campsite.

            Everything else was perfect for us though!

            Ok for overnight stop but wouldn't be a travel destination. Most sites seem to be long term or permanent sites. Very close to neighbor site, with fire pit being extremely close. Water, Sewer, Power, WiFi

            Black Pearl Farms

            Rustic

            CAUTION:  The directions provided by The Dyrt to this location are incorrect.  It is not located on Sand Hill.  So please use Google Maps to find the location or you will be down a long dirt road with no place to turn around.

            Black Pearl Farms fit most of our expectations.  However, I did make some poor assumptions regarding the information.  We were in spot 3 which had "access to power and water".  Which was true, but not what I assumed.  The site was a few yards away from a wash area to get water from and there was a 12 volt power cord outside to plug into.

            Our dog loved having the space to roam around and the camping spots were in a wooded area behind the farm.  We stayed in number 3, but if we return our preference would be for number 2.

            Anyway, it was a nice spot once we arrived.

            Nice quiet site close to town

            Site and hosts were nice. It was easily accessible(made it in a lowered mustang). The site was pretty clean and had firewood cut and ready to go for is.

            Not far from the roadway so not quiet and isolated if that’s what you were looking for. We weren’t and the quick in and out was perfect.

            Honest review

            This review is neither negative or positive. Just how it is, so you know before you go. The park is clean and nearly every camp spot is shaded. All roads and camp spots are paved and have fire pits. Some have water and power (30 and 50 amp), some have sewer. There are a few ADA compliant. Restroom/bath houses are never far off, and we're clean, with 2 shower stalls each. Almost every camper there had big pull behinds, so they have their own showers, leaving the bath houses mostly private. Lots of families with children. A site without sewer cost us $46. It felt like a safe park to camp in.

            Cute park convenient to Columbia

            We stayed in loop 2 at site 48 for 2 nights at the end of April. Chose this campground because we had an event in Columbia that we had to attend on our way back from a trip to Florida so we needed a place to stay for a few nights. The site was level with a gravel drive and parking area. Lots of pines all around but the site was clear enough for easy parking. No sewer hookups. There was water but we had some trouble getting the pressure just right. Really good tv signal since the campground is right outside of the city. Only a 20-30 minute drive down the highway. The part of town you go through to get there is a bit rundown (not bad by any means but you wouldn’t know there was a park nearby). The park itself it quite lovely. There’s a small lake that rents paddle boats and kayaks. A nice camp store. Cute park and splash pad. I actually wish we could have stayed longer. We have family nearby and will probably stay here next time we visit. I would recommend visiting if you want a quiet low key getaway.

            Nice spot would return for sure

            I was passing thru SC on the SCAR headed down to the Palmetto Rally and stopped here to camp. It was a very nice campground with level pads, picnic table and fire ring (bring your own wood). As well there were several vault toilets and there was even a water faucet. It was a good campground and I would stay here again. It is not reservable so first come first served. There was some cell coverage as well. I tent camped so can not comment on RV as the others in the campground were tent camping as well.
