The best big rig friendly campgrounds near Hilton Head Island, South Carolina

This island off South Carolina is famous for its unspoiled beaches and easy resort living. Under an hour from Savannah, Hilton Head Island is also a golfing destination. The island has over 30 courses, including Harbour Town, home of PGA's RBC Heritage tour. Hilton Head has more hotels than campgrounds, but several RV resorts let campers unwind in style. These upscale campgrounds are big on amenities, from swimming pools to saunas and tennis courts. Extras like Wi-Fi, cable TV, and full hook-ups are usually included. Tent campers have to trudge back to the mainland to sleep under the stars. The nearby town of Bluffton has private campgrounds with tent camping areas. Big rigs can find roomy sites at RV parks in Hardeeville. Of course, you can still day trip to Hilton Head. Coligny is the most popular beach, with swimming, bike rentals, and restaurants within walking distance. For fewer crowds, look to beaches on the north shore. Islanders Beach is especially low-key on account of the resident-only parking. But you can totally bike or walk over. Or you can look for alligators at the island's nature preserves, including the Audubon Newhall Preserve. If you're determined to pitch a tent on an island, Skidaway Island is only an hour away in Georgia. The state park has tent camping amid live oaks, along with cabins and some full hook-up sites. Hunting Island in South Carolina is another good alternative to Hilton Head for camping.

Why buy a home when you can build a fairy-tale? Hi, I'm Curt. My wife Ani, son Fitch, and I are your average, everyday nonconformists who have been running an experiment. We are trying to figure out if a family can use their own hands and some grit to handcraft a life that you don't need a vacation from. Or better yet, that you would vacation to. Have we done that? You be the judge. Years ago we left our Miami handcrafted furniture business to pursue this new goal. We set out to build an inspiring experience in simple, eco-friendly living that would find a harmony between some of the old fashioned world that we'd found ourselves missing, and the handful of modern advancements that were actually beneficial. All this, while keeping it classy ;-) At Heirloom Hamlet, you will see us designing unique cabins, using solar energy, and composting organics. We're bread baking, pasta making, timber milling, woodworking, clay-forming and metal pounding. The goal is to evolve into a small world of self-reliance and in better harmony with nature. Ani and I are big believers in being mindful and respectful of our environment wherever reasonable. Through good design, our goal is to show just how "normal" small living can feel. To be completely transparent, though, the creative inside us would also like to inspire onlookers. We've personally found it to be super fulfilling to distinguish our real desires and needs, from the ones we've been groomed to pursue. It's invigorating to then customize our path-less-traveled life. How cool it would be to have been a positive memory along another person's journey. Visiting with us, we sure hope our guests don't expect to find a corporate approach to life here, that they can appreciate some of our old-fashioned ways. but our presentation at Heirloom Hamlet has been purposefully designed to be a refreshing hideaway from the norm.

Weekend Trip to Heirloom Hamlet

We had a great experience and highly recommend camping here. Curt was very responsive and helpful, and he sent clear instructions before our arrival. We arrived after dark, and he personally came over to help us get oriented to the property and its amenities. He has done an incredible job. Every detail is not only well executed but truly artistic. Curt clearly cares about the experience and goes above and beyond with his hospitality. For context, I spend over 100 nights a year in my camper van and have stayed in many places, and this was one of the best experiences we’ve had. Final word: great value and well worth the price

Very nice staff, close to I-95. Full hook ups are always good. Our site was close to the road. It wasn’t a bother because we had the windows closed. Next time I’ll request to be away from the road.

Will's property is well setup & thoughtfully planned for all rig lengths. I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived to find full hookup - 50amp/water/sewer. No extra leveling needed - which is a huge plus!! Great property, excellently maintained, safe, quiet and still close to so much!!

Curt and wife have really got the focus on what they enjoy. Back to nature. Building a property that they can really enjoy. The property really shows their background in furniture design and building. Loved the bath house/ toilet he built . The free range chickens and the solar panel areas were a great design feature. Curt clearly has a clear vision of what makes them happy. Good location from I 95.

Weekend Trip to Flying “W” Farm

We wanted a quick, overnight getaway near home with our dogs and Will’s Flying W fit our needs perfectly. We bought fresh eggs and had a campfire. Water, electric and dumping all available. Fortunate for us—we were not in a rush to leave and the space was available through late morning to get to know Will & Mo (and their brand new puppy). This is a great spot to stop while you are traveling through.

Loved this stay, it's a very cute homestead with a peaceful small town vibe. Nice amenities available like a bathhouse with an outdoor shower and a sauna. We enjoyed having the electricity and the water hookup and the space was a pull through. The stars there are beautiful too at night! Thanks Curt.

Weekend Trip to Heirloom Hamlet

Our stay at Heirloom Hamlet was nothing short of picturesque, morning fog coming up through the trees and an incredible old oak at the center. Our timing did not allow us to fully enjoy the property but that tiny bit we saw will definitely have us coming back. The dog has decided that this is her new favorite place and did not want to leave. The Small Bathhouse has some really nice touches that really showcase how much Curt and his family value hosting as well as creating a very eco-concious space that reminds us of the importance of all doing our part. One thing we do know- this may not be right for some folks and that’s ok, but definitely a place that we will visit again.

Weekend Trip to Heirloom Hamlet

We love Heirloom Hamlet and return often. A really nice little spot, close to I-95 for camping with or without hookups. The non-hookup spot is especially private. Firewood is supplied, and the public pinecone fire pit is a real treat! Curt is a very welcoming host!
