Lake Wateree State Park Campground

The park is impeccable! This has set a new standard and all future state campgrounds across the USA will be compared to here. The bathrooms as well as the entire is exceptionally clean. Playgrounds and soccer field (soccer balls provided) Hiking/biking trails. Our camp hosts Kermit and Anita were phenomenal. If I had find one negative it would be the state is really proud of their firewood, I thought it was overpriced especially since I’m from out of state and was at their mercy.

This is one of our favorite spots! We can boat, fish, ride our golf cart, hang out by the fire and just enjoy the moment. It also has wonderful handicap accommodations. Hands down one of our favorites!

Nice campground right on the lake. The nicest shower house I have ever seen. This is the standard we base all other campgrounds. Staff and everyone around were super nice

I love Wateree State Park. Clean and friendly staff.

Site #1 on the lake. Level paved drive way lots of shade. Great campground.

Great park with water front sites.Plenty of fishing areas.Not much near the site for supplies so bring your supplies if possible.Park can get a little noisy on weekends with festive groups so expect that at times.Overall a nice place to go.Staff is very courteous as well.

First time here. Camped 3 nights and loved it. Nice, level( and plentiful) sites. Great facilities. Only downside is it's difficult in most areas to access the lake with your kayak. We certainly will return!

Great time with family at the new Taylor Creek Sites! Concrete pads are great and almost all sites have a lake view! Will be back again!

Wow, this place is nice!  Beautiful setting up on Lake Wateree,  Plenty of Campsites and very reasonable.  So Much to do here, They have a swimming area, Fishing area and a dock for boating.  Great Place to meet new Friends.

The bathroom/Shower house is always clean!  I love Wateree State Park.

Good views and boat access. It is relatively small and reservations are difficult to get.

We love state park campgrounds and Lake Wateree State Park is a great one. Sites are right on the lake, paved, spacious, clean, well maintained with fire pits, water, electric and picnic tables. It is mid-way between Charlotte and Columbia. Quiet, relaxing and just nice place to getaway from the hustle and bustle.

I can see why this is a busy campground. Bathhouses were clean. Many lakefront sites have posts to tie up your boat to if you have one. Beach area by the store. No WiFi and rarely did we have cell service but that’s not a bad thing! Large sites with some pull through. We had site 39 and there was nothing but woods behind us which was perfect for us. Only negative was I that I was bitten up by mosquitoes and I used bug spray ( obviously I need a better kind) and citronella buckets. Even with a packed campground for the holiday weekend it was relatively quiet especially by 11. This campground tends to be booked solid on weekends so important to make reservations. Also not much for stores close by so pack well. Oh and no alcohol sales on Sunday’s in the county.

We stayed here for 3 nights and really enjoyed it. A few friends came with us, and between us we had 8 kids. Despite being there during the hottest part of the year, we stayed comfortable and had a great time. The swimming area is by the office/shop. There is a really lovely strip of shaded picnic tables where we spent the hottest hours of the day. The water is pretty shallow, so the littlest ones had plenty of space to play and swim without us having to worry. We caught a ton of muscles and ate them. Several in our group enjoyed them very much. Bathrooms were well kept and nice and cool. The hiking trail is beautiful. The park is about 25 minutes from any stores, but they keep their shop extremely well stocked. The ladies there were great with helping us find our way when we did need directions to Walmart, and then later to the hwy to head home. There is no wifi until you're about 15 minutes from the park.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying here and recommend it!

nice campground, trails were good sites to close for us. very busy campground. long line for dump station.

We have been camping here for years snd we love the camp ground. bathrooms are all remideled snd super clean. the grounds are fairly flat so bike riding is great. the Lake is souch fun. all the staff are great. i just cant say enough. we still go to other camp grounds but this is our favorite!

The views of the lake are awesome, but no campsites with view. Great boat docks. Friendly rangers. Very quiet and relaxing place. Mainly water activities.

While there are a few hiking trails, if you don’t have a boat or canoe you will be missing out on most of the appeal of this park. The campgrounds were quiet despite being pretty busy, and accommodate RVs and a tent-only site, plus there is a store. Sites are very shady and every site is surrounded by trees, so you don’t feel very close to the other campers. None of the sites have lake views but are all a short walk away.
