South Carolina’s waterside campsites cover everything from tidal creeks to quiet lakes, with over 4,600 places to pitch a tent or park up by the water. Expect average nightly prices around $45, though you’ll spot options down to $12 if you move quick. Top picks by fellow campers include Hanscombe Point Plantation (449 reviews), Chattooga Belle Farm Lakeside (374 reviews), and Friendly Fowl Farm (257 reviews). You’ll find sites where campfires are allowed, pets can tag along, and showers are on tap. Hiking trails hug riverbanks, wildlife-watching is a given, and horseback riding pops up at more than a few spots. Local tip: Bring bug spray and a good torch—nights get dark and the frogs don’t quit singing.

Great camping spot close to the lake! The campground was clean, great conditions, and had picnic tables and fire pits for use. There was plenty of room for setup and parking.

Weekend Trip to Camp@Castaway/Lake Hartwell 410&412

We just needed a place to park our camper and sleep for a couple of nights and this was perfect for our needs! We arrived after dark and there weren’t any numbers marking the campsites but we quickly figured it out. Would definitely stay again!

Great Location and close to highway. Easy set-up with electric. Pretty view of woods. Some nearby neighbors are visable but not an issue. We would book again.
