The best lakeside camping near Edgefield

·

Edgefield packs over 900 lake camping options, with sites that put you right on the water’s edge. Expect a mix of wooded banks, wide-open views, and easy access to fishing, swimming, and wildlife-watching. Nightly rates average around $40, but you’ll spot spots dipping as low as $25 if you plan ahead. Showers, toilets, and pet-friendly policies are common, so you won’t have to rough it. Local favorites include Big Creek RV Park of Saluda SC (131 reviews), Camp Clatworthy (126 reviews), and Prices Bridge Inn & Campgrounds (49 reviews). You’ll find plenty of spots where the only thing between your tent and the lake is a few steps of soft grass or packed sand. Bring bug spray, a solid cooler, and your fishing rod—the bass here don’t mess around.

Me, my wife, and three kids live and work on a 20 acre forest nestled in the backwaters of Lake Murray. Behind Prices Bridge, we have what nature lovers refer to "OH MY GAWD"... Our land forms a peninsula, which is very private, secluded, and SAFE. If you want to refresh, recharge or spend quality time with family or friends, we'd love to host you. *Prices Bridge being a low bridge also means if you bring a large boat you may need to use the marina or any of the free boat launches within a mile of our site... kayaks, canoes, john boats all fit under. :-)
