Jamestown

The Best Camping Near Jamestown, South Carolina

There are quite a few campgrounds in the area to choose from and this is among the best. I've camped here, swam here, explored the beach here, worked here, gotten to know many of the staff, and even hosted a triathlon here.
You just can't beat Pirateland in summer or winter. If you don't want to camp in a tent, they have quite a few trailers and cabins for rent that are pretty nice. If you don't have a bike, you can even rent a golf cart and roll your way around. 
If you bring a kayak, there are some great salt marsh areas to check out as well.

One of the Best in the Area!

This is such a great place, with multiple pools, a lazy river, cabins and golf carts to rent, right on the ocean, what more can you ask for?  There is an arcade as well as so many activities AND an ice cream shop (this is the first time I had Moose tracks Ice cream).  Yum!

Fantastic place for a Pirate!

Of all the campground choices in the southern tip of Myrtle Beach, this is one of the least family friendly.  There are by far more parties that go on here than any other campground.  The sites are ok, and while there are plenty of activities for the family, the main areas are not as nicely maintained than other area campgrounds.

Other private campgrounds right down the highway have more security presence and enforce family friendliness.  We didn't experience that here during a couple of stays.

Party city

I camped here several times when I was younger as a boy scout. It is situated right next to the beach. There is an indoor pool and a big splash park on the grounds. There is a big shower house, laundry facility, and an arcade club house. We were given special permission to tent camp as a boy scout troop. It is mainly for big campers, but they allow tents on site with campers. They have man made water canal that snakes through the campsite where you can rent canoes and paddle boats. The entrance to Pirate land is situated right on the myrtle strip where there are the beach stores and restaurants. Your only ten minutes from the skyward and family kingdom. Overall Pirate land is a family oriented grounds that also has an onsite grocery store for your basic foods and essentials.

Pirate Land campground Myrtle Beach SC

The kids pool and lazy river are great. Store is well stocked and not too expensive. Beach is close.

Great for the kids

Nice campground and nice size RVillage spaces with easy access

Great campground with tons of stuff to do including easy beach access. The pool with lazy river is to die for. Only downfall is the sites are a little close.

Nuce bathrooms, great restaurant and store!

Favorite place in SC

Oceanfront lots look to be the best spots “if” you can get one. We were on Schooner and to say it was tight getting into our spot is an UNDERSTATEMENT!! Thankfully, campers are very helpful people ( they also can park your camper/trailer for you if needed) Not a lot of water pressure in the bathhouse showers but clean! Would’ve just liked a bit more breathing room.

Pirateland 

Our family has loved coming here for many years. It's such a fun experience walking out of your camper and right onto the beach. The campground is very well maintained and they have some amazing amenities. The pool is absolutely gorgeous and we love the lazy river. We also love the golf cart rentals and the "golf cart parades" they have each night. Highly, highly, highly recommend this place!

Beautiful beachside camping

close to all the fun places but gated and safe to let the kids loose. water park in center of campground. I advise spending the extra money for a site on the beach!!! worth it. they have cabins too. 

Family fun

Family oriented location is good, full hookups, newly renovated bathhouse

Family oriented, plenty of activities! Great location 

beach was clean, kids on golf carts -dangerous.  pool and lazy river close and convenient. 

This is a big beautiful campground with sites right up to the dunes with the beautiful Atlantic on the other side. Lots of activities, golf cart rental is reasonably priced and a really cute store. Check out the pirate themed dinner theatre in Dolly Parton theatre, and horse back riding at inlet plantation. Great trip!

Fun family oriented campground

This was a really fun campground. Lots of activities. Golf cart rentals were so reasonably priced. The staff was really great. We will definitely come back. The waterpark on the grounds was perfect and safe, you can sit in the shade and your children can splash and play. The lazy river was great too! Off grounds Inlet plantation offered really great horseback riding, Dolly Partons dinner theatre pirate themed show was fabulous.

Family friendly and right on the coast

Had a great time. 4th of July parade was great, kids stayed busy with things to do. Wonderful vacation

Vacation

It’s great how they pick up the trash.

What I didn’t like,

ANYWAY THEY CAN MAKE MONEY OFF THEY WILL, including YOUR VISITORS, $3per day time, if they wanna stay $5.

Mini golf costs.

One load of laundry will cost you $2, dryer $.25 for 6 minutes.

If you need to get a taxi, forget about it NO ONE is allowed on grounds without a pass.

Excessive barking of your puppy means your dog might bark for three minutes at the time. Leaving your dog in a fenced in area, while you have to use the facilities for number one( so what? About 2 minutes) is considered leaving your animal unsupervised.

Lawn WILL BE MOWED ON SUNDAYS, NO(!!!!!!!!) exceptions.

Pool is great, so is the lazy river.

Besides that the ground is old, it’s clean. Access to the Atlantic is great.

Mail will not be delivered, you have to sieve through your initials entire mail.

Quiet hours are enforced UNLESS someone starts packing up at 5.00 AM which will set your dog off and no matter that it is inside your trailer, it’s a reason to threaten you with eviction.

Best you get rid of the dog before you enter Pirateland.

Kids friendly. Youngsters seem to have fun at the splash pool. Playground seems to be deserted all the time.

Staff, cleaning and grounds keeping, is very friendly, while office won’t let you finish your sentences after paying up, nor are they willing to answer questions why breaking down a camp next to you at 5 AM loudly is okay.

Don’t attach Republican bumper stickers to your car, they’ll fall of the car at night.

The internet sucks, cable has moments when overloaded, but cell is great, so one may use personal hot spot as compensation.

Trailers also arrive at 21.00\. No one can get setting up done in an hour until quiet time starts, but remember dogs aren’t allowed to bark if they hear ruckus outside.

If you ask me about my feelings, I felt like a prisoner, not being able to sleep in Monday’s, because I had to drive hubby to airport at 4 AM, due to his business trips and cabs can’t puck him up, I’m confined to the RV due to my dog barking, which had to be stopped even in your own trailer immediately.and yes, we were threatened with eviction.

Get rid of your furried kids before entering!

Not a ton for kids to do off season. But we still had a good experience from front desk to check out. 

Good experience

Ggrass sites  some concrete pads cable not very good

Full hook up and beach front

This a a busy campground that is fun for the whole family. They have food trucks that serve really good BBQ. Pools indoors an out. Beach access mini golf. Ice cream shop. You can rent golf carts. They have great fishing ponds. I do wish they could get the sand spurs on the sites under control. Bathhouses are new and clean. We like going here in the off season when it’s not so crowded. 

Fun campground for kids 

Friendly staff, clean and relaxed enviroment, easy beach access. Amazing trip, already booked out next trip.

Amazing

We had a great time here at the beach and fishing the lazy river was a plus!!!!

Awesome beach campground

The place is very nice. We go every summer for a week but it seems like each year it falls a little more and more. The security are very serious about their job and almost had to show proof to a security guard that we were in the right spot while trying to back in. Sites are close but to be expected on the beach. Nice pool features with the pirate ship and lazy river. The beach is full but never packed. Lots of extras to do. 

Very nice 

Our go to place! Have been there all seasons and it never disappoints. Right on the beach. If you stay 6 they have you 7th day free. 

Awesome

Lots of amenities- once you’re set up you’d never need to leave. Beautiful pool, clean climate controlled bath houses, beautiful beach access!

Great stay

Pros- Friendly and helpful staff everywhere. Our sand and grass lot was level. We had nice neighbors all around us. Our family loved the pool and the kiddos couldn’t get enough of the pirate themed water park and lazy river. They have a well stocked store. A restaurant and game room. A food truck was also available daily. Easy access to the beach. The bathhouse was clean, well stocked and climate controlled.

Cons- We were all packed in snug like sardines. Traffic is busy always. 

Pros and cons 

Stayed during off season, great price and not crowded 

Family camping

Young or old, you and your family will stay occupied here but boy are these sites tight. We have stayed here twice, once in Fall and in Spring, on opposite sides of the grounds. Our first site was awful! Not level, roots everywhere, extremely poor placement of water and sewer, and very tight parking through trees.
The second site was a lot better but muddy and far away from the main center, pool, etc. 

Only a few miles away from the heart of Myrtle Beach and beautiful Murrells Inlet. 

Fun but Tight

We stayed here for many many years, we have seen the campground grow and lose it’s quaint family charm. Sadly it is falling prey to commercialism. Still has some nice spots and they used to not allow motorcycles. Not sure if that is still the case. 

Family History

Stayed for a week and it was a lot of fun. Rent a golf cart and ride around. Make sure to decorate it because there is a cart parade every night from 9-11. It sits right on the beach and has a nice pool and a lazy river. Some sites are kinda cramped while others are very spacious. When you check in they give you a paper saying to lock your stuff up like coolers and bikes. We never had any issue with anyone messing with our stuff. 

Let’s of fun

Great place for your family to have a great weekend or week at the beach. Lots of kid things to do close to shopping centers and eight in the beach. 

Place for family 

This place was great but unfortunately we only got to stay 2 days before being evacuated for a hurricane. The campground did give us a voucher to come back at a later time. The bath houses were clean and they had several activities going on at the pool

Family oriented 

This place is awesome especially if you have kids. Bath houses are nice and clean, splash pool is top notch, putt putt, food, and the beach here is really nice. Only negative is the roofs over the little picnic tables are weirdly low. I hit my head multiple times daily.  

We love it

We stayed here the end of October. The park was about 70% full. They had putt putt, arcade, splash park, pool and great beach access. Wi-Fi was almost unusable. Some site had concrete and some did not, this was not notated on the map so if that’s important to you make sure you ask. Lots of kids and pets. Golf cart was $30 for 24hr’s. Lots of laundry equipment. The staff were great. Cell signal was great.  We paid about $50 per night

Great Family Park

Huge resort. Lazy river,pool,cafe,ice cream, game room and steps to ocean.shopping close by.when busy there are tons of golf carts so you need to be careful. Sites can get muddy.nice pavillions at some sites.

We had a great spot; right on the beach. The park was huge, seemed like a thousand spaces. Would be very overwhelming in the summer time. There were also permanent homes. Each campsite had decent room and a pavilion with the picnic table. The laundry situation was pretty great. There was plenty of room and enough machines for everyone. 

Big! Fun! Clean!

Met some friends here for the weekend. Had such a great time. We did the beach, peddle boats, pools and all. The staff is super friendly and helpful. We chose shaded spots and even tho this place is huge, there is plenty of room on the sites. Dogs enjoyed their long walks as well.

Something for everyone

This place earned my simpaty ! HS everything and behind! Has a store and restaurant inside.  You can rent a electrical cart  and much more. Did I mention is right on the beach.  Yep !

Excellent  

Had a ton of fun with our small family reunion at Pirateland! Not all of us had campers, so the fact that the campground offered cabins next to campsites was a big plus for us! Activities are tons of fun! Our crew really enjoyed candy bar bingo and karaoke! All is family friendly! Campground is busy! Be prepared for the sites to be close together and golf carts galore! However it was a ton of fun to rent a golf cart and I highly recommend it, not only
to ride to the beach but the glow parade is a ton of fun as well! Truly my only complaint is that cell phone signal sucks, I have Verizon and my data never worked. Pirateland does have Wifi but it rarely worked for me and barely streamed Netflix. But hey, it’s vacation right? I never had any issues making calls or sending texts! Overall great vacation, just not 5 stars because of how close the sites are together and the wifi, however I would recommend! Great family fun.

Fun Family Reunion!

Clean, beach is beautiful a lot of fun. Pulling on and off sites is challenging because they are so tight. Campground is so large you need a rental golf cart(expensive) to enjoy all they have to offer,

Fun place

The campground is huge and you can easily get lost. There are lots of things to do with the family but it can get expensive quickly. Visitors even if they are local will get charged to stop in even for the day. 

Large resort style campground

The one thing that really bothered me was that they had dozens of people just riding around drinking beer and driving all day. Then they would just Cruz around drinking and driving at night? With dogs and babies ?

Either way: 

Bathrooms: 5/5 clean &amp; air-conditioning in all of them. 

Sites: 3/5 just average/fine

Pools: 5/5 full on kids water park + Olympic pool + lazy river. 

Food: 3/5 loads of options. Nothing good. They don't let Uber eats or DD come deliver and you have to meet them at the gate.

Closeness to other sites: 1/5 you are up each other's buttcracks

Dog rating: 4/5 no problem but also SO dog friendly we had to be very mindful of others not having their dogs on leash. 


 


Good for off season locals

We loved this place! Its beautiful and right on the beach! We were inland and rented a golf cart to travel around. Lots of stuff for kiddos and everyone is super friendly! Will defiantly return!

Beach Wonderland!

I would like to give 5 stars but unable to. Campground is very large, easy beach access and clean. Issues you may experience are the sites are small in width and each rv is very close. When you have loud neighbors that don't know to be aware of this or don't care of anyone around them it makes for a non relaxing time. The sewer hookups are non threaded pipes so if you do not bring some sort of weight to put on the sewer inlet and empty your black tank you will have a stinky mess everywhere. Golf carts are everywhere here and kids run around on them all night with radios blaring. If you don't mind to be curtious or your neighbors then this is for you.

Pirateland tight sites

We came here for summer vacation with the entire family. It was the best vacation ever. We were so close to the beach and the pool that everyone did their own thing. Sites are a little tight but thats to be expected. Plenty of things to do outside the campground. We didn’t leave often.

BEST VACATION

We had a great time staying at site 726 on the beach. So convenient to everything. Bath houses were clean. Plenty of family fun activities. Kids on bicycles and scooters did scare me a bit riding around with all the traffic. All in all id recommend

Awesome family fun campground

Very nice park! We had ocean front spot site 695. Spot was sandy and looked a little sketchy to back into, looks as if someone got stuck. We ended up backing up just fine with no problems and pulled out just fine as well. Bathrooms were close and very clean, great water pressure. They pick your trash right at your spot every morning. Had a minor electrical problem, called and they were right there vey quick and fixed the issue. Lots of things to do, Pool, lazy river, splash pad, and kayak/peddle boats. Putt putt cost money but it’s available. Gulf cart rentals as well. The ocean beach is so beautiful and it was not busy. Just a perfect spot. 
I recommend going to Broadway on the beach for things to do in the area. 

We did how ever have family fly in and rented a cabin. Sharon from the office was not so friendly she only deals with cabin rentals so if your here to camp in campground it’s a great place! 

Perfect ocean front spot 

We spent the last week of July 2022 here, last year for mustang week. As anyone should suspect, it was busy. Golf carts are everywhere, as expected, and they seemed to have a golf cart parade almost every night. Despite that, when we were at our campsite (site 788), it wasn’t so bad.

They have 3 different food trailers that come there at different times throughout the week. We ate from the BBQ one and it was pretty good, you get a good hefty portion. We really enjoyed the funnel cake trailer, though we didn’t get a funnel cake lol. I got their deep-fried Oreos, and they were great. Most I’ve had have a ton of batter on them and sometimes isn’t cooked all the way through. I got these three times during our stay and each time they were just right, just enough batter to cover them and fried to perfection in my opinion. My wife got deep fried cheesecake and loved it, said it was rich in flavor. She also got the deep-fried banana pudding and enjoyed that as well.

We used the laundry facility once during our stay. We didn’t have any problems but there were a few washers giving a customer some problems, but a maintenance guy was there quickly and fixed the problem. There isn’t any hot water washing which wasn’t a concern for us. The campground store was sufficient. We used the restrooms a couple times while we were out walking, and they were decent considering how many people are there.

The lazy river and pool are very nice, and we enjoyed those. While there are a lot of people in there during the day, it really wasn’t all that bad, still plenty of room to move around and not feel like your over capacity in an elevator. They have a kid’s sections that looks cool as well.

Our site, 788, was large and easy to get into. FHUs and all worked fine. Did need some minor leveling, it’s sand. Plenty of room for parking. There isn’t a fire pit because fires aren’t allowed. Easy access to the beach.

The staff was very friendly and professional. They have staff on patrol riding around on golf carts. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would come back.

Enjoyed our stay

Old campgrounds but have full hook-ups. Beach side has sandy lots with waist hi weeds around electric poles and water spouts. Clean new bathrooms. The golf cart parade every night is an accident waiting to happen with children driving them and Zero street lights at best and people can't cross from the beach to get back. Pools were nice and Food trucks every night were excellent 👌.

Beech trip for the 4th

Super friendly staff. Great spots but no indoor pool. Sooooo that stinks 

We love it here but they no longer have an indoor pool and that’s a big bummer for us soooo

If you like party vibes, making friends with your neighbors, and staying up late for a drink, this campground rules.

We had a basic inland site with full hookups and a picnic table. The area where inland sites are located has a bunch of trees, we loved the shade and it was perfect for our 22 ft trailer, but I can see a big rig having some trouble navigating.

There’s a pool and a lazy river for when you want to switch it up from the beach, and a general store with camper equipment, souvenirs, and stocked with a lot of things you may have forgotten at home. Decent prices too, not slammin’ deals but didn’t feel like there was a huge mark up on anything. Though we have a shower/toilet in our trailer, the bath houses were a clean and air conditioned alternative. They all had outdoor showers and foot rinsing stations, which were super convenient when cleaning up after the beach.

The beach was beautiful, shallows for a couple hundred yards when the tide was out, and relatively clean for a busy beach. We brought our dog with us, so we could take him to the beach before 10AM and after 5PM. You’re supposed to have them on a leash all of the time, but we found a spot devoid of others and we’re able to let him go to play frisbee in the water. Very dog friendly campground, by the way.

Overall, we loved our time there and are even planning on coming back next year! Again, an awesome campground for outgoing folks looking for a beach party vibe. I would steer clear if you’re looking for something quiet and private.

Fun beach party campground!

❗️Never get site 947. There is a tree directly in the middle of it❗️

My family enjoyed this campground. The sites are pretty nice for the most part, with a good amount of room. The roads however are pretty tight and a bigger rig could be tough to back in. Our site had very little grass due to the shade which made for a pretty sandy mess, but we have an outdoor rug that helped. The trees kept everything very cool so it was a small inconvenience for how nice that was. The pool, lazy river and splash pad were all very nice and well kept and big enough that we were never super crowded. The lazy river does stay full, but it is pretty good size. The bath house near our site was in good condition and pretty clean. The laundry mat had plenty of washers and dryers and the store had about anything you could need. We didn't do the arcade because it required a game card, but it seemed to have a few games in it. The campground is large enough that a good cart is almost a necessity. We were in the middle of the pool and beach, but really was a walk to either of them. Golf carts run about $330 for the week, but are worth it. The only complaints I have for the campground is the lack of enforcement of golf cart drivers underage. Also, the amount of golf carts on the road can make it difficult to navigate when pulling in and leaving. It was crazy how many people were going crazy on the things. Anyway, not a deal breaker on staying there, just be aware! I think we will be back next year. It's worth the drive from SEKY for a nice place to stay and enjoy the beach for a week!

Great Campground

Friendly, fun for the family, food all over for any appetite,  beach clean and fun, golf cart parades at night, karaoke, an app to help navigate your fun. Arcade, pizza, funnel cake stand, Golf carts, mini golf. Fishing.
