Edisto Island Vacation Rental RV is a fully hooked up new model RV with all the conveniences of home. Located in a beautiful shaded natural forest. Your site backs up to the Edisto Beach State Park where there are miles of amazing hiking and biking trails running through the maritime forest, and while on the trails you can visit the State Park's Environmental Learning Center to take part in their incredible interactive exhibits and learn about the natural history of the island and it's sea life. You will definitely want to spend time exploring or just relaxing on the beautiful beaches teaming with seashells. If you have a boat, feel free to bring it with you when you come, we are very close to the Live Oak Landing boat ramp where I took the picture of the sunset. As the day winds down to an end you can relax by a campfire or just head inside and kick back and watch a movie from the library of dvd's that are available. The bed is a queen and the dining table area can turn into a full bed. I look forward to having you here to make Edisto Island your next playground.

The farm was once a portion of the McTureus Plantation. Tony's family members were once enslaved on the plantation. Upon Emancipation a family member bought land and it remained in the family. Tony is a descendant of those family members whose foresight allowed us to be here today. Tony's parents entrusted the care and preservation of the property to us and we are doing our best to be good stewards and teach the value of this property to our children and young grandchildren.

We live at the end of a cul-de-sac in an old neighborhood west of the Ashley River in Charleston, South Carolina. Access to downtown Charleston is 20 minutes away and Folly beach is a 30 to 45 minute drive. We have full hook ups in our second driveway available for rent. We live at the end of a cul-de-sac and a quiet neighborhood with great neighbors. We homeschool our three boys, but we will keep them quiet between 9 PM and 8 AM! There is not much room to have your awning extended. Also, make sure you have approx. 50 feet of water & sewer hose, as the electric and water are on one side, but the sewer service is in the other. Also, anything over 30' in length might be difficult to fit due to the incline of the driveway.

The site was spotlessly cleaned. We loved the metal roofed weather cover. The location was central. Loved the full hook up, including wifi and garbage. The fire pit was awesome and the fact that some of the area was stoned for easy sitting and relaxing in the sun. Would definitely book again. Price was extremely fair.

We spent 6 nights during spring break with our 2 sons (6 and 15) and 4 dogs. It was a fun and interesting place to stay!
The campsite itself is large and private, despite its proximity to the main house. It’s separated from the other campsites, and the large live oaks with Spanish moss enhance the feeling of privacy.
The site was as described with power and water connections. There is no sewer or garbage, but we paid a nominal fee for trash and to dump our black/gray tanks at the campground on Hunting Island. There was a toilet tent and a solar, gravity shower tent just for our site. The toilet was a porta-potty type, but placed over a pit within the tent. It was clean and worked out fine for our stay. We used the shower in our camper, not the solar shower so I cannot review it.
Belinda and Tony were amazing hosts with fast response times and accommodated all our requests. My younger son loved all the free roaming animals. Belinda allowed him to interact with the animals as long as they came to our area of the property. These animals are not “pets” to be petted or picked up, but they are curious. My son would sit until the animals came to him so he could talk to them and he loved it. The fresh eggs were delicious too!
The location is great for Hunting Island, Port Royal, and Beaufort. We spent a lot of time on Hunting Island at the beach and the pier. We found shark teeth at Sands Beach and had a wonderful dinner in Beaufort.
This was a perfect base camp for our trip!

We had a great time! The host was very kind and helped us out with all the amenities. The campsite is tucked in the woods and is peaceful and private, only a 7 minute drive from the gorgeous beach state park. We loved seeing the farm animals, and the eggs that we bought were delicious. I would highly recommend this hipcamp and we will likely come back :)

Thank you to Liz & Kacey for sharing their beautiful property with us. We loved the wide open space for only our RV. Fantastic area to walk our two dogs. Hosts are wonderful folks and truly make you feel at ease. Even though close to a road, we wouldn't have known it, lots of trees that buffer the area.

What a gorgeous farm! The pigs and fowl were so sweet, and the nanny goat seemed to like us! Emily and I were so so happy and honored to find such a special place! We would love to come back again when we can spend more time and learn about the farm’s history and actually meet you all. Thank you for setting everything up. It was perfect.

Liz and her partner Casey are the best! It was my first time using Hipcamp, first time staying and hooking up my camper, and it was such a great experience. Liz’s place is close enough to everything that your only a few minute drive to the necessities but quite and secluded that I had great privacy. The spot was easy to find, convenient hookups and overall clean and efficient. I wasn’t stressed out and was able to work and relax. The WiFi worked great as well! Highly recommend staying here!

Liz's property is very clean and well maintained. The beautiful landscape consists of a lean-to with a rocking chair and a very nice fire pit. It was surround by trees and bamboo. The area was not as quiet as expected as the site is close to the road. It may have been because of the holidays, but there were a lot of sirens, dogs barking and gun shots. We're from the country, so used to the noises, but not expecting such heavy traffic noise. We were unsure of the property lines, so didn't roam very far out with our two dogs. There were also other driveways from the property, so we were not sure which trashcan we were to use. We brought our trash home with us to dispose of properly. The instructions indicate there is no road sign, but there was a new sign up to help navigate us to the proper site. The location is very easy to find.
We had to buy an extended hose for our black tank. There was one available at the property, but unfortunately, it did not fit the ones we have. We used 3 total as the septic is further away from the electrical and water hookups. We were perfectly centralized between Charleston and Savannah and the live oak trees with the Spanish moss were absolutely gorgeous throughout the area. Beaufort is a cute little town and the people seemed very friendly.
We would definitely visit Liz again. She has a beautiful set up for a short term stay while visiting the area.

My family stayed two nights at the magnolia site. The site was clean and tent safe, we didn't need a tarp to protect the bottom from small brush or rocks. There was a nice camping toilet that was clean and right on site. Only interacted with host to buy eggs for breakfast but that was our choice, the host was friendly and I'm sure wouldn't mind more interaction if a camper needed it. Love the fact that they are a small farm providing non commercial goods to their community. We felt safe and secure in this site. Remember that this is a working farm and there will be farm noises. Thank you for hosting us.
