With a lake for walking trails and activities like gold panning and giant chess, Point South KOA provides a recreational base just off Interstate 95 in Yemassee. The campground features full hookup sites accommodating RVs up to 60 feet, plus unique caboose rentals and traditional cabins scattered among the trees.
Campers consistently note the well-maintained gravel roads and level sites, with staff promptly re-leveling areas after checkout. Most sites offer shade, and several reviewers highlight sites 52 and 16 as particularly desirable for their privacy and amenities. The Tophams appreciated their site's "deck with bench, table and chairs, gas fire pit" along with the included grill setup. The small dog park features agility equipment, though the adjacent lake trail provides more space for longer walks.
The on-site Mermaid Coffee bar serves as a social hub, offering wine and beer tastings alongside Hunt Brothers pizza cooked fresh in a pizza oven. A lending library housed in an old phone booth adds character to the grounds. The pool operates year-round with scheduled time slots and thorough cleaning between groups. Evening activities vary seasonally, and the camp store stocks basic supplies.
Access from Exit 33 keeps the campground convenient for I-95 travelers while maintaining separation from highway noise. Cell service reports vary by carrier, with T-Mobile users noting strong signals. Staff provides site guidance during check-in, particularly helpful for larger rigs navigating the gravel roads. Reservations are recommended, especially during Parris Island graduation periods when the campground fills quickly.
For a different experience, Thousand Trails The Oaks at Point South sits just half a mile east with membership-based camping options.
