1 night at The Goodson Forest Estate

Great, easy spot. Had everything we needed for a night's rest close to Congaree.

1 night at Leach Homestead campground

I highly recommend Victor place. My family went there on a daddy daughter camping trip.The property is beautiful.The fishing is great and he was very helpful. My daughter said it was the best camping trip ever! Only issue we had was using the directions from this app, they were off a little. Found out through him that he also offers twenty dollar day fishing and will absolutely be taking him up on that. We will definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to Leach Homestead campground

Great spot! No other campers around. Bathroom and shower was huge bonus! So was owner's dog "Blue"

Weekend Trip to Camping on Pipers Pond

This place was fantastic. Well kept, easy to find, and friendly hosts. This was the perfect place for a small group of us to call home base while we paddled in the nearby Congaree National Park. Their dogs were very friendly. The outhouse was well taken care of. Overall great option.

7 nights at Big Creek RV Park of Saluda SC

I loved the site and campgrounds. Easy in and out. Very clean. The camp host was very helpful and friendly.

Weekend Trip to Camping on Pipers Pond

as advertised, nice quiet place. It's been years since I have heard a Bullfrog.

Weekend Trip to Leach Homestead campground

This was by far the best hip camp ive ever been to. We are so happy we found Victor’s little slice of heaven. I believe every camper and angler should experience this place!! There are so many things to see or do on this property. We asked where the fish sit in the lake and he told us “wherever you can cast” and he was not lying!! We caught SO many fish this weekend and even cooked up some bream on the fire for dinner. The road was no problem, you couldnt hear it that much from our tent anyways. Even if you feel like it is the property is so big theres a spot somewhere for everyone. Victor even let us borrow a table and an extra chair. The shower and toilet was such a great addition as well. Victor was extremely nice and helpful, and came and checked to see if we were catching fish. He was an awesome host and we will 100% be back ASAP!!

Weekend Trip to Lakeshore Family Campground

Very well kept campground, peaceful part of the lake. Neighbors behind us were loud until 11:40 pm, right outside our bedroom window, but that wasn’t the host’s fault at all. Besides that, it was amazing! I’d definitely come back.

4 nights at Big Creek RV Park of Saluda SC

We absolutely loved our stay. The park is in immaculate shape. As tent campers, It was wonderful having access to the shower house and bathroom. We would definitely stay here again if we’re in the area.

1 night at Private Oasis In The Forest

We loved it! Amazing spot for our dog to roam, lovely but short trail around the lake, a little row boat we didn't use but would have been a fun little adventure - we set our tent up inside because the windows are wide open so just to keep bugs off us though we didn't notice many the night we were there - great experience especially for the price! We were tenting and it was calling for a thunderstorm and we couldn't have asked for a better spot to watch watch the rain come down and listen to it on the tin roof!

Weekend Trip to The Goodson Forest Estate

Great location with an easy jaunt into town and easy drive to Congaree National Park. There were 2 other RVs on the property however we did not see a soul. Parking on grass and mostly level but the dirt path to get into your spot was a bit rough..can’t imagine if it had rained. Hookups were convenient although we didn’t use them. No other amentities on the property so it was kind of pricey for what you got. I was happy paying for the convenience of getting to Congaree. Property is situated on corner of a busy intersection (for being out of town) so constant road noise and fire station nearby so sirens can wake ya up in the middle of the night. Host had good communication through the booking process. Allowed us to stay in 40’ although online says max is 35’.

3 nights at Camping on Pipers Pond

As always.... an amazing place. Highly recommend. Great relaxing place and great fishing 🎣. The hosts are awesome and make sure you have everything you need.

3 nights at Camping on Pipers Pond

We love this place. Beautiful, peaceful, and awesome fishing. The water hose and ext cord came in handy also. We will be coming back again. Thank you.

Weekend Trip to Camping on Pipers Pond

Very relaxing and fun time and a very fun fishing spot

1 night at The Goodson Forest Estate

We appreciate how close it was to Conagree National Park. The site was full hookup with electric, water, and sewage dump. We can see he is trying to improve the site with newly planted trees as a wind and sound break. Host was friendly and responsive!

Weekend Trip to Camping on Pipers Pond

Absolutely Amazing Hosts, they check in with you at the start and then leave you too it. Incredible sunrises over the site, good facilities. Women I was with kept insisting the compost toilet was fantastic. Brilliant spot for relaxed fishing out the stocked pond.

Weekend Trip to Camping on Pipers Pond

We loved camping here! It was a beautiful spot!! As soon as we pulled in an osprey dove down to try to get a fish! 3 sets of mallards waddled over & spent some time there. We got to meet their friendly dogs also. It was very peaceful & beautiful! Dargan checked in with us when she got home from work, which was very nice. And both my husband & I were amazed at how clean and non-smelly the outhouse was! Best system ever!

5 nights at Big Creek RV Park of Saluda SC

Superbe site bien entretenu Le host a plein de belle « histoires » sur la région 😉 Je recommande pour la grosse paix

2 nights at Camping on Pipers Pond

This was our first time using Hipcamp and now I’m a little worried it ruined Hipcamp for us since this was such a wonderful experience. We camped here since it was only about 20 minutes from Congaree National Park and seemed nicer than the Congaree campground. Dargan, her husband, and their two dogs Piper and Pearl are very pleasant and their property is incredible. Piper’s Pond is a beautiful wildlife pond that they created that we had the pleasure to camp next to. We enjoyed seeing the fish and ducks feed from their feeders and watching the large variety of birds around the pond. Piper and Pearl would come keep us company, and they’re great, well-behaved dogs, and Dargan is very accommodating if one wouldn’t want them around. The campsite itself is excellent, with wonderful seating and firepits, and the outhouse is clean and has everything one needs. Overall, we were super happy we found this place, and would definitely return!

4 nights at Big Creek RV Park of Saluda SC

James was very accommodating around my plans to arrive changing multiple times due to distance, crazy weather and other delays. The camp sites are very well kept up, very tidy. James delivered hardwood to my site while I was away and included some pine for starting the fire. I look forward to checking out Big Creek RV Park when I’m in the Greenville SC area again. 5 stars!
