South Carolina's coastal RV campgrounds offer extensive amenities for large motorhomes. Myrtle Beach State Park Campground provides full hookups including electric, water, and sewer connections, while Huntington Beach State Park Campground accommodates big rigs with drive-in access and complete hookup services. The Campground at James Island County Park features fifty-amp service, propane fill, and laundry facilities, making it suitable for extended stays. Ocean Lakes Family Campground and Pirateland Family Camping Resort both maintain year-round operations with alcohol permitted and fire rings at each site. Most coastal parks have concrete pads that can accommodate larger Class A motorhomes with slide-outs. "Sites are very well kept and not stacked on top of each other. Nice pool and kids pool, fishing pier to main waterway and fishing pond."
Reservations become essential during peak summer months when oceanfront RV sites fill quickly. Pull-through spaces are limited at many state park campgrounds, while private resorts typically offer more generous site dimensions. Several campgrounds along the Grand Strand maintain dedicated big rig sections with 50+ foot concrete pads and ample turning radius for larger vehicles. While most coastal parks provide reliable cell service and Wi-Fi, mountain region campgrounds may have more limited connectivity. Devil's Fork State Park Campground maintains full hookup capability despite its more remote location. Dump stations are available at all listed parks, though some older facilities may have tight approach angles requiring careful maneuvering. One camper noted that "roads are wide and sites spacious and level. Internet, cable, and cell phone service all good" at Hideaway RV Park, which features waterfront sites along the Intracoastal Waterway.

ScoutGreat sites with full hook ups and tons of amenities in the park! Never mind that it's right on the water with gorgeous sunrises and sunsets and an awesome restaurant! Have stayed here before, but realized this year that it's the same price that I pay for a KOA in many other locations - no comparison!
ScoutHunting camp with good level camping spots. Vault bathrooms and potable water. We still used filter. Dirt road and trails to hike. Ranger stops by daily which makes it safe
ScoutGreat location. Great facilities
GuideSites are not level. Thousand trails is currently not investing. Any money in improving the sites. Half of the sites in the park are going back to nature. The roads are falling apart and the inclines are not big rig friendly.
GuideI spent one night here 10-18-26 as I was passing through. The area is a open field with no designated sites. Milo and I were the only ones there. Nice and quite. Beautiful place if you have water and electric. In the morning some boaters were launching as I was packing up. No issues.
I would definitely stay again if passing through.
TravelerIt was very nice! My fiance and I and our kitty stopped for the night, had burgers and went on a little hike in the morning with a gorgeous view. It’s very quiet, well kept. Has 2 porta-potty’s as well. Would definitely come back.
ScoutWhen I got here I was told that it was all private property
ScoutGreat resort for RV travelers. The staff was amazing, friendly, and helpful throughout our stay. We’ll definitely be back the next time we visit the Myrtle Beach area.
