    Brick House Campground (Sc) — Francis Marion And Sumter National Forests

    Nice for almost free camping

    We stayed here for three nights in space number 17. Surprisingly it was quite level. The whole time we were there there was only usually about three or four other campers in the 21 spaces. Beware of the giant pothole when turning off the 66 onto the Brickhouse Road. We hit it and it jarred the trailer so much it broke our back window. This is totally dry camping and there are two sets of vault toilets. Nearest town was Whitmire about 7 miles away. Minimal facilities. Clinton and Newberry are both about 15 miles away and they both have plenty of shopping facilities. Hikes in the forest noted several downed trees, most likely due to the hurricane that occurred last year. Some of the trails were impassable.

    Ash Grove Mountain Cabins & Camping

    Very Nice camping near Dupont National Forest

    If you want close access to Dupont and Pisga NF you're within minutes! The owners Mark & Esther are wonderful. We call him SouthSide Mark ( hails from South Africa). Some sites are a little tight, but fine. If you have a big rig call ahead. The cabin was wonderful. The bathhouse is older but very clean. You can tell the owners love their campers and property. The site is tree covered and hilly. We will come again, guaranteed! Watch your step. Wood Spirits are Everywhere!

    Springfield - Hartwell Lake

    Gorgeous view

    I believe every site is lake front. The view of the lake is amazing and perfect. Some sites have little beaches for access to the water. Others have rocks if you want to make your way down those. Mine had rocks covered with wire thats been cut or broken so wasn’t taking my chances there. This place is huge! There is no sewer at sites but water and electric up to 50amp

    Croft State Park Campground

    Outdoor adventure awaits

    37 ft pull behind and we stayed at the upper campground (not the lakeside) close to the trail that takes you down to the creek for a swim. Lots of hiking and biking to be done which is always a great time.

    Solitude Pointe Cabins & RV Park

    Quiet & Great Location

    A wonderful campground run by friendly people. The sites are on level cement pads which makes set up easy. It is on a steep hill, but the camp hosts escort you to the site and help navigate your camper in if needed. We are new to camping so this was helpful. Sites back up to the woods. They also have a great camp store for any little things you forgot or keepsakes. Highly recommend this campground and will return!

Camping sites near Woodruff, South Carolina include several established campgrounds within a 30-minute drive. The region sits in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains at approximately 800 feet elevation, creating varied terrain for camping experiences. Winter temperatures typically range from 30-55°F while summer brings 70-90°F days, making spring and fall the most comfortable camping seasons.

What to do

Horseback riding trails: At Croft State Park Campground, equestrian visitors can access extensive riding trails and facilities. "Perfect for equestrian as most of the trails are horse friendly and there is a large arena free to use. The barn is clean as well and provides stall shavings for a small fee," notes Maddi P., who frequently visits the park.

Fishing in mountain lakes: The region offers multiple lake fishing opportunities with diverse catches. "Nice and lake veiw," reports Greg H. about Croft State Park, while another visitor mentions seeing "turtles while paddling, and there were frogs and lots of fireflies near our campsite."

Mountain biking: Paris Mountain State Park Campground offers dedicated biking trails on weekends. According to Maddi P., "Paris mountain is a personal favorite of mine and take any chance to go. This is a great dog friendly park with clean trails, plenty of parking, and friendly staff."

Hiking forest trails: Explore trails that connect to larger systems. The Brick House Campground connects to regional hiking networks. One camper notes, "There are several loop trails you can take that are really close, and the palmetto trail runs right through there, so longer options are available."

What campers like

Clean facilities: Campers frequently mention facility cleanliness as a standout feature at campgrounds near Woodruff. At Pine Ridge Campground, Mary C. reports, "Beautiful restrooms kept clean and had a combination lock on them." Another visitor adds it has the "cleanest bathhouse I've ever seen."

Kid-friendly amenities: Family activities keep younger campers engaged. "Our family had a great time! Lots of stuff for the kids to do! Bath house clean and laundry facility great!" shares Erica C. about Pine Ridge Campground. Another camper describes "an acre of catch and release pond, a playground and jump pad for kids, a pool, some trails, several things to do."

Wildlife viewing: Many sites offer natural encounters with local wildlife. At Croft State Park, one camper enjoyed "seeing the equestrian visitors" along with observing pond life. Another visitor at Paris Mountain appreciates fall visits when "it is less crowded and the leaves are changing color."

Affordable options: Several camping areas near Woodruff offer economical stays. Brick House Campground provides basic camping for just $5 per night. "Affordable SC camping," writes Bill M., noting "sites are large and spread out. No facilities except for very clean pit toilets."

What you should know

Site leveling challenges: Many campgrounds in this hilly region have uneven sites. At Paris Mountain State Park, Cindy R. warns: "Small, pretty area. Unlevel sites... Would not stay again because we were so unlevel our refrigerator wouldn't work." Another camper notes some sites "needed a little rehab and weren't very flat."

Seasonal crowding: Busy periods require advance planning. According to richardhoerz at Sedalia Campground: "We like it. It's been quiet the times that we've been there." However, during hunting season, Brick House Campground gets "full of bigger rigs and generators."

Variable cell service: Connectivity ranges widely between campgrounds. At Pine Ridge Campground, one visitor reported adequate service: "I had 2-3 bars of AT&T LTE Wireless signal," while others mention spotty WiFi that "drops out a lot."

Water availability: Some primitive sites lack water access. At Brick House Campground, a camper warns: "There is no running water. The closest water is 5 or 6 miles in either direction, so pack plenty."

Tips for camping with families

Air-conditioned cabins: For families wanting camping without tenting, WyldStay Greenville offers unique accommodations. One visitor describes: "Large tents on a platform, with everything you need to camp and enjoy the campgrounds and pastures. Full bathroom onsite, great ponds to enjoy."

Animal interactions: Several campgrounds offer wildlife experiences for children. At WyldStay, Jerry H. reports: "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."

Swimming options: Look for campgrounds with water access for hot days. Sarah G. mentions Croft State Park has "a short hike to wade in the stream!" Another visitor enjoyed "seeing turtles while paddling" on the park's lake.

Accessible facilities: Some campgrounds offer ADA sites, though quality varies. A Paris Mountain visitor cautions that "the ada site is NOT flat and a trip hazard," suggesting families check accessibility features before booking.

Tips from RVers

Pull-through availability: Several campgrounds accommodate larger rigs. At Brick House Campground, Michael W. notes: "Easy access from I26... Has 21 spots. All have legal gravel pads, fire rings with grill bars... Access for bigger rigs too."

Extended stay options: Some parks cater to longer-term visitors. At Pine Ridge Campground, Georgia G. shares: "We are 5 weeks into full time and it's been a little rough. The owners here took us under their wings and helped whenever needed."

Utility reliability: Check hookup options before arriving. Jacob E. reports about Scuffletown USA RV Park: "Nice quiet spot not far from a big road with any shops you could need on it. Wifi availability for $20 a month. Slow, but gets the job done."

Road access constraints: Some parks have challenging entry roads. A Paris Mountain visitor warns: "The road through the park back to the campground is pretty narrow at some points - we don't know how we would have managed if we had met another RV!"
