Seasonal considerations affect availability throughout the region. Fall and summer months typically require reservations weeks or months in advance, particularly at parks near lakes or scenic areas. Cell service varies significantly across the mountainous terrain, with some parks reporting strong coverage while others have minimal connectivity. Access to several parks involves navigating steep hills and tight turns that may challenge larger rigs. Dump stations are available at Tiger Stripes and Rutledge Lake, though not all parks offer this amenity. Most RV parks in the area remain open year-round, though some mountain facilities close during winter months. Based on reviews from The Dyrt, travelers should be prepared for potentially unlevel sites at some locations, with one camper noting "some sites are very unlevel, there are lots of seasonal sites with built in porches making it very tight to get into the travelers spots."

RangerHaving lived in South Carolina most my life, I haven't seen it all.. but have seen a lot of it. Mile Creek Campground is a string of 3 islands connect by narrow straights and surrounded by water. It's hard to get a spot here without great views of Lake Keowee and the Blueridge Mountains.
The spaces a are a mix of full concrete pads or gravel sites. We've stayed in several sites and while some are very close together (that RV park feeling), there are many which have lots of breathing room, and things feel more natural. The pics in this review are for site 51, which is on the "3rd island," which is the furthest out and offers the best views. This is a very level concrete spot and we only had to use the electric tongue jack on our trailer to level front to back. Got set up in under 5 minutes.
There is one oddity to some of the concrete sites. Because it's concrete, your fire pit is off to the side. And since most of the sites are raised, your fire pit may be level with the concrete pad, but you can't sit next to it as there is too much slope.
It's a county park and is well maintained. Bath houses are clean. With it having a public day use area with a nice boat dock, you can expect almost every morning @ 6am to hear the diehard fishing folks blasting out of the boat launch area.
We have Verizon and our cell signal has always been 4 to 5 bars on the outside third island.
All sites have 30amp electric and water hookups. Dump station at the front of campground entrance up on a hill. BE AWARE, pulling into the dump station is easy, but the steeper exit will have longer RV's and Trailers dragging their bag end on the asphalt.
We've always felt safe and relaxed here. And though we prefer more dispersed camping with less neighbors, this is still one of the best and most affordable ($25 in off season) places in South Carolina to camp.
We rarely give 5-stars, but due to the awesome views, trees between the sites and being well wooded & surrounded by water... it really is a very nice place.
From what I can tell, all but two sites are back in. We had no problem backing in our 23'8" (total length) camper in.
LegendOverall, this is a very nice, clean park conveniently located to the interstate I-85) and attractions in the area. It has all the amenities you would expect to find at a KOA such as a swimming pool, playground, dog park, miniature golf, store, clubhouse, and more (including goats). It is by far the nicest private campground in the area that we have stayed at.
This KOA has 127 sites offering varying degrees of services to accommodate RV's, tents, and those wanting to rent cabins. We chose a 50-amp full hook-up back-in site but were upgraded to a pull-thru so we could be in a sunny location to mitigate the chilly air. How nice of them! Our site (#79) was perfectly level as were most others (but not all). Water, electric, and cable hook-ups were well placed at the site and worked fine. We paid $37/night(with the KOA member discount). Nice, large grassy area for dogs to walk and sniff and there is a decent size dog park. Roads and pads are hard packed gravel with grass in between sites. Some sites are set in a wooded area while some are out in the open with plenty of sun and satellite coverage. The park is big rig friendly and the roads are easily navigable. All sites have a picnic table and some had fire pits but ours did not. Cable is included and offered over 50 channels. Wifi worked well at our site. The laundry was small with three washers and three dryers but very clean and had a decent book exchange. The bathroom and showers were super clean and looked like they were updated recently.
The campground is extremely clean and the owners/employees are super friendly. There is a short hiking trail (less than a mile) through the woods and plenty of green space in front of some of the pull-thrus. playground large swimming pool with large deck putt putt with lots of goat humor.
The only downside would be the closeness of sites but that is pretty much what you expect from private RV parks. Fortunately, we did not have neighbors right next to us which gave us more space. I'm usually not a KOA fan but have to say this one was great for our overnight stay and we would recommend it.

LOCATION
The location is incredible! We enjoyed the accessibility of hiking, biking and fishing right from the campground. ART LOEB trailhead is right outside the campground entrance and is excellent for hiking and mountain biking. Several loops and even sites provide access to the river for fishing. Just outside the campground are endless trails and several beautiful waterfalls that can be accessed within a 5-15 min car ride. Convenient to a few restaurants, grocery stores and even a Walmart (which is slightly dodgy so be warned).
SITE
014 WOAK site is an RV site. It’s spacious and very private. We loved how much room we had to spread out and entertain as we were traveling with several other camping families. Our site was the go to spot! Backing in wasn’t difficult. It was convenient that the pull through site across from us was vacant, this made backing in super easy. There are no hookups on this site. So be sure you have a generator! One bonus on the location of this site is the water access just feet away. We needed to fill up and had forgot to do so when we pulled in to the campground. What a relief to see a water access just steps from the campsite! The only downside was that generator hours are very limited. If you are traveling during warmer months or must have AC, this is not the site for you. We felt that the tree coverage really provided us protection from the heat and did very well without AC in early August.
ACTIVITIES
Slide Rock is a natural water slide that is fun for the whole family. Yes… it’s COLD and honestly worth every moment of chilly suffering.
Hiking is abundant and all levels are accessible within minutes to a few miles of the campsite. Our favorites are: Looking Glass Falls (steps going down make this a breeze), Moore Cove Falls is a MUST and an easy trail that leads to the perfect waterfall for a good photo, Looking Glass Rock is a moderate to difficult hike and worth it. Looking Glass Rock is a long hike so be prepared to go early and bring a rain jacket.
Fishing right within the campground makes it perfect for an early morning or late afternoon activity. The hatchery is nearby and offers some wonderful opportunities to catch and release. Be sure to look in to a guided tour for a hands on experience filled with lots of educational info on local fish.
Biking is a top activity for lots of overnight and day campers. The Art Loeb Trail provides endless miles that proves fun for the whole family.
Ice Cream at Dolly’s should make your list if you love a refreshing treat. This iconic little stop if right by the entrance to the Pisgah Forest and just around the corner from the campground. Also a great spot for a cell signal!
Breweries aren’t hard to find nearby. Small microbreweries are within a few minutes and Sierra Nevada Brewery is 25 minutes away.
DON’T FORGET
ScoutSpacious long-term Resort with bathhouse, laundry facility, dog park, hiking trail, private dock on Lake Hartwell, boat storage, and more. Also allows tiny homes!
GuideThis is a typical Corp of Engineers campground, well kept with a variety of pull through and back-in sites. Sites are 50/30/20 electric with water, picnic table and fire ring. Many sites have a tent pad, are very level packed gravel/sand and well situated with very few having very close neighbors. Shade is at a premium on some sites due to cutting of pine trees a couple of years ago but almost all are waterfront with an excellent view. Some sites have direct access to the water allowing boats right at the site and swimming. The swimming beach is very nice and well maintained as are the playgrounds. Three bath houses are convenient to all loops, well maintained and clean. Cell service is very good as is over the air TV with numerous channels available. The dump station is easy in/out. Sites 10 through 40 have awesome views of Lake Hartwell.

Fishing opportunities: Land of Waterfalls RV Park provides easy access to numerous fishing spots with proximity to both Brevard and Hendersonville. A camper noted it's "located 15 minutes to Brevard and Pisgah National Forest and 20 minutes to Hendersonville. DuPont State Park is nearby as well. Easy access to hiking trails and outdoor activities."
Waterfall exploration: Wilderness Cove Campground serves as a base for waterfall enthusiasts. The area is known for having over 250 waterfalls within driving distance. One guest mentioned, "The drive down the mountain is a little nerve-wracking for a city boy, and my car's low clearance had me scraping my underside on some rocky bumps inside the property, but that's just a heads-up."
Downtown access: Stay at GSP RV Park for quick trips to nearby towns. A reviewer highlighted that "The park is centrally located near downtown Greer (very cute with lots of shops and restaurants) and a short drive from Greenville and Travelers Rest."
Community atmosphere: Blue Ridge Falls RV Resort (formerly Riverbend) offers daily social gatherings. As one camper shared, "Every day, at 5pm, the happy hour bell rings and it's a great chance to meet people and learn tips on the area."
Private settings: Red Gates RV Park features thoughtfully designed layouts. A visitor commented, "Small campground with level sites. Plenty of space and areas to walk our dog. They even have an off lead dog area with water available and poop bags."
Clean facilities: Rutledge Lake RV Resort maintains high standards for bathhouses. One guest was particularly impressed, noting the "bathrooms are very nice, second only to Disney."
Site selection matters: At some campgrounds, certain sites offer significantly better experiences. At Rutledge Lake, "Space 85 is the way to go, that spot is not crowded and backs up to a creek with a private picnic pavilion!"
Seasonal pricing: Winter rates are generally lower, but some amenities may be unavailable. Several parks require minimum stays during peak autumn season when fall colors draw large crowds.
Access challenges: Navigation to mountain campgrounds can be challenging. For Blue Ridge Falls, one camper advised: "Just a word on getting there - don't follow the GPS onto Kim Miller Rd. Stay on Rt 64 and turn onto 281 past firehouse. Much easier!"
Dog-friendly options: Boylston Creek RV Park & Cabins welcomes pets and offers both RV sites and cabin rentals. A recent visitor noted it's a "Great spot, friendly people" with "just opened" facilities.
Waterfront activities: Some parks offer water recreation options for kids. Rutledge Lake features fishing opportunities despite some challenges: "Fishing pond has a lot of ducks and seaweed" but remains popular with families.
Indoor comforts: For families wanting a mix of camping and conveniences, Wilderness Cove offers cottages with unexpected amenities. As one visitor explained: "Moving to the cottage was meant to be easier on my kid, but I didn't expect all the amenities: refrigerator, screened in porch, and very comfy beds."
WiFi reliability: Internet connectivity varies significantly between parks. At Rutledge Lake, one RVer reported: "Overall WiFi was problematic. It took numerous attempts on my computer to connect to the numerous router networks that they have to finally get a connection."
Site leveling: Gatlin Ridge RV Park offers well-maintained sites. A visitor mentioned it has "clean, beautiful landscaping. Full hookups, shady spot on site 4."
Pull-through navigation: Some parks have unique layouts affecting entry. At Land of Waterfalls, "The pull-thrus were actually easier to back in to given the one-way road structure, but it was honestly 50/50 either way."
Winter camping considerations: Several RV parks remain open year-round but with limitations. Land of Waterfalls stays open through winter with one camper noting they "Stayed from November through April" with full hookups available despite colder temperatures.
