Golf cart escorts guide newcomers to their sites at this lakefront KOA positioned on Lake Marion's eastern shore. Staff members lead RVs through the campground's layout, helping navigate tighter spots that can challenge larger rigs approaching 37 feet.
The campground sits on dirt sites that generate dust during dry periods, though many campers appreciate the direct lake access and fishing dock. Several sites offer water views, while others require short walks to reach the shoreline. Site leveling varies considerably across the property, with some spots requiring significant adjustments and others manageable by auto-levelers alone. "Plenty of water pressure, will definitely want a pressure regulator," advises Thomas H..
Hunt Brothers pizza orders arrive by golf cart delivery, a service that extends to firewood and other supplies. The on-site pool draws families, though some reviews note maintenance concerns during peak periods. A small beach area provides lake swimming when weather permits, complete with wooden chairs for sunset viewing. The playground runs along the shoreline, and Santee Lakes Campground sits adjacent to the property.
Full hookups serve most sites, with electric, water, and sewer connections available. A dump station handles sites without sewer access. The campground maintains year-round operations with reservation availability. "Campsite, pool and laundry area was kept clean," notes Georgia R.. WiFi reaches throughout the property, and 24 channels of over-the-air HD television provide backup entertainment.
Interstate 95 travelers find this location convenient for overnight stops, with easy access despite some tight turns within the campground. Daily trash pickup and clean restroom facilities support extended stays for those wanting to explore Lake Marion's fishing and boating opportunities.
