Standing Pines is an upscale, family-focused campground and RV resort near Hartsville, South Carolina, designed as a wildly comfortable basecamp for your next adventure. With 104 spacious sites across 88 acres, guests enjoy full-hookup RV sites, cozy cabins, and tent camping supported by modern infrastructure, fast internet, and plenty of room for today’s big rigs.
The property sits beside a 3-acre fishing lake and serves as the exclusive private park gateway to roughly 100,000 acres of nearby public parks and recreation areas. Standing Pines is an ideal launch point for hiking, paddling, and exploring the Pee Dee region.
Families love the thoughtful details throughout Standing Pines, from forest trails and fenced dog parks to playgrounds, disc golf, and signature “Oasis Showers” that make cleaning up after a day outside feel like part of the experience—not a chore. Kids can meet original Forest Friends characters and dive into immersive themed activities created by campground founder Amy Bashor, an experienced camping author who built the resort around storytelling and memory-making.
Pets are welcome, and wide, easy-to-navigate roads plus generously sized sites help every arrival feel calm and stress-free, even for new RVers towing or driving larger rigs.
Standing Pines consistently earns around 4.9-star reviews, with guests praising the welcoming owners, clean facilities, and the balance of peaceful woods with convenient amenities. As a first-mover upscale family resort in the area, it offers a rare mix of resort-style comfort and authentic campground charm—campfires under the stars at night, forest breezes through the pines, and clear, honest communication about what’s on property as new features continue to come online.
Whether you’re planning a weekend getaway, a longer RV stay, or a multi-family gathering, Standing Pines is designed to help you create memories together and return year after year.
