Quiet. On the lake. Diamond in the rough...though more of a piece of coal than a diamond but that is okay, not into fancy and all the amenities, we camp to get away from society. 

Hidden getaway 

Fantastic owners, great rates, lakefront property, private boat dock, next door to a boat ramp, lake vibe restaurant with live bands, (seasonal), mere minutes from nearly anything one could want, delivery apps and pizza shops deliver here (drivers get a bit lost in the campground though).  

Stayed here for a bit in my 36’ class A.  The campground has been around for a while, (but so have we)… ;)

My family and I had a fantastic time.  Tiger Cove is a lock for us when we travel through next. 

Not a KOA, (but not a KOA)… ;)

My Husband, Niece, Nephew &amp; I just got back from spending a wonderful weekend @ The Point! Such a great carefree, quiet and peaceful place to stay!! Before I continue with this 5\* Review I will say prior to even turning into the campground I started having flashbacks of the area when my husband &amp; I had visited once before over a year ago(we did not stay, we just toured the property) &amp; my anxiety kicked in real bad! The campground was under a different name/ownership &amp; it was an absolute "DUMP" to say the least! So as we were driving up the road leading to the campground this weekend my husband was like "this area looks familiar &amp; I know you haven't booked us @ that raggedy campground we looked @ a year ago", I was like "OMG, I've booked the wrong place" However when we turned in I immediately noticed the new &amp; improved changes to the campground! They have a new name/new owners &amp; they have done some major improvements &amp; you can tell they care about the property! The grounds have been cleaned up, the basketball/tennis court area can now actually be used. The new pool area is under construction &amp; you can tell it's going to be great! The office/campground store is stocked with plenty of essentials you may need for your stay! They even have prepackaged Smores kits for you to purchase. The clubhouse area was nice. They had Karaoke&amp; Potluck night while we were there! The laundry/bathhouse area was also nice/clean! As far as the actual campsites there are not any concrete pads but you can tell they have tried their best to make the sites level&amp; better accessible by clearing up the area&amp; removing some of the trees. We were in site G4(which was considered a larger site, we have a 38ft 5th wheel), my nephew was in site F5&amp; both sites were easy to get into with no issues. They offer tent sites, tiny cabins &amp; a few waterfront sites. We had our boat, they offer a decent area for boat parking &amp; the boat ramp/dock to access beautiful Lake Hartwell was ok! The ramp/dock area could use a little facelift but it was still decent &amp; I'm sure they probably have plans to upgrade it in the future! Overall Kim, Mike, Angie and the other staff were absolutely amazing &amp; very accommodating! We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves &amp; will definitely return to The Point &amp; recommend to our friends/family!

Amazing Stay!

Stayed over 4th of July weekend.  Couldn’t believe how quiet it was for a holiday. There isn’t anything around at all. They offer a pool but no other activities (they did have some 4th activities but it was all seasonal). It backs to the lake so if you have a boat it’s nice. But when we went on the lake we saw many other campgrounds that looked nicer. There is one dumpster that we had to walk to to throw trash away. No pick up or closer locations. Not level sites. Mostly seasonal which is fine but not a great place or easy to get in/out of if transient. Other campgrounds closer to Clemson. No town nearby at all. 

Quiet but lacking

Eenjoyed staying there, staff was awesome and really did a great job keeping the guest happy. The 4th of July events was awesome and was a full day of contest and ended with a DJ kicking the tunes. Recommend to all to give them a try!
