3.8mi from Murrells Inlet · 4 sites · Tents, RVs
3.5 acre property, last remaining part of old inlet horse farm, with plenty of natural buffers from the few neighbors in our vicinity and between our camp sites, as well as the road. So close to everything the inlet area has to offer. Beaches, tidal inlet with boat ramps, Waccamaw River with boat ramps, restaurants, shops, bars, State Parks, nature preserves, fun attractions and much, much more, all just moments away. We are set up as a “primitive” camping experience, the property is kept very natural, unmanicured for the most part, little to no herbicides or insecticides used here. It’s a work in progress, is difficult for me to tackle chores due to physical disabilities, so some private areas are disorganized at this time. I live here full time, with two cats & 5 chickens whom are all free range.
I live here in a double wide by myself, two outdoor cats. Deer, fox, rabbits, hawks and the like are common visitors. This is brand new to me, lots of improvements to be made in the future to make a guests stay even better, so for right now it’s bare bones. Can accommodate tents or certain campers. No pump out, no electricity or running water for “sites” yet, if ever, but running water is here and available for free.
Additions to come soon: outdoor shower, available compost toilet available for rent while here, fresh herbs, vegetables, fresh local eggs, firewood, and covered gathering/ cooking area (not built yet) and much more, I’m really excited. Open to idea’s and options. No fireworks/ gunfire allowed at anytime, no “parties”, but gatherings, campfires, games and fun always welcome.
I prefer meeting guests apon arrival to answer any questions and help all feel comfortable. I do have medical conditions that may prohibit it at times though.

I really enjoyed my stay here. Scott is a wonderful host. The site was easy to get into, very well taken care of, and private. The location is central & convenient to everything nearby. It is truly a haven for camping in an area that has otherwise been gentrified & built up. Thank you for the hospitality, Scott! Looking forward to another stay.

I came here in early November and wound up extending my stay twice because we enjoyed it so much. Connie and Jeff have a beautiful well maintained piece of property with plenty of level ground for the camper. There were several trails I explored with my pets and plenty of wood for fires at night. Plus only a 15 minute drive to the beach. It felt very private and safe the whole time I was there. I hope to be back someday!

We loved camping at scott’s spot!!
he was extremely considerate from the moment we pulled in, he even had treats and a ball ready for our pups
the spot is tucked behind on his land and could adjust to small/big families and had everything we needed for tent camping (plus more) and he even surprised us with eggs from his chicken to cook for breakfast.
the area is both away from the hustle and bustle but also close enough to the beach and food.
overall, super generous man who we can tell loves company, we could have sat and talked to him for hours but unfortunately we were short on time, thanks for everything you did for us, scott!!

Camp is great and well kept. Lots of space and very private but still close to anything and everything you could want. It's close to the beach so of course it's going to be hot and humid with mosquitos so be prepared if you have a tent in the hot months!

Scott was very hospitable, despite us checking in very late due to bad weather on the road he was there to greet us and show us the spot.
He kindly offered for BBQ, and even surprised us with some fresh watermelon.
The campsite is very close to town, Walmart, gas stations, the beach, though being in a secluded spot.
**Make sure to bring mosquito repellent.

We loved tent camping on Scott's property! The area was very private and included a private campfire ring, bbq, compost toilet, and picnic table—and a shared space including an outdoor shower. Scott was SO helpful and kind! He brought us tiki torches to put up near our tent and even flowers since we were celebrating a birthday. Extra fun perks were the chickens and cat running around on occasion! (don't forget your bug-spray!!)

I was quite skeptical using this app for the first time. This camp site was the first we tried out! We had absolutely NO issues with anything. It was very secluded and we even added shower bags and wood to our reservation. It was SO worth the extra $5 a piece! We weren’t at the site much due to exploring the shops and beaches. We did see Connie only one time and she was extremely nice when we did. I liked that she actually checks on the campground, seeing if anyone needed anything. They even have a toy box full of badminton kits and other toys to play with friends. I would most definitely recommend coming to this site if you’re going to the Ocean Isle area!
