Private Riverfront Retreat on the Scenic Waccamaw
Escape to your own private getaway on the beautiful Waccamaw River in Conway, South Carolina. Tucked beside the peaceful Shaftesbury Glen Golf & Fish Club—but well outside the golf community—this 2.2-acre property offers unmatched privacy and tranquility. Enjoy exclusive access to over 350 feet of serene riverfront, shaded by towering hardwoods and pines.
This quiet retreat feels a world away from the hustle and bustle, yet it’s ideally located for exploring the area. Historic downtown Conway, with its charming shops, restaurants, and scenic Riverwalk, is just 10 miles away via Hwy 905. If you're craving sand and surf, the north end of Myrtle Beach is only 15.5 miles away via Hwy 22, with quick connections to Hwy 31 for easy travel to North Myrtle Beach, Surfside, Garden City, Murrells Inlet, and the rest of the Grand Strand.
Whether you're looking to relax in nature, paddle along the river, or explore the nearby coastal towns, this peaceful haven offers the perfect basecamp.
*We now have a commercial portable toilet for your convenience. The toilet is serviced and cleaned weekly by the contractor*
***For your information*** There are two security cameras on site, one watches the entrance to the property (for obvious reasons), and the other is pointed at the river in the center of the property (this is because I need to know the height of the river at times, especially this time of year with hurricane season). Neither of these cameras look towards the interior of the property, or towards the "beach/kayak launch" where you can walk to the water. I have included photos in the listing where you can see screen shots of what these cameras' fixed viewpoints are. Rest assured, your privacy is not compromised.***
FOR TRASH DISPOSAL, there is an Horry County Recycling Center convieniently located 6 miles from the campsite, on Hwy 905. Here's the address: 7554 Highway 905, Conway 29526.
Here's their days/hours of operation from the Horry County website:

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!

Andrew was very responsive and helpful with answering all of our questions.
Place was a riverfront and really well organized with tables, fire pit, swing and most importantly toilet. Camping area was clean of all of the debris and stuff. We had great time overall.
Few things I would like to share with fellow campers and I don't think it should affect our 5 star rating.
The spot was quite dusty for us. We could see dust particles in air all the time and our cars and stuff were covered with dust after few hours.
Our fault we did not take advantage of the river front. But it would have been really nice if we brought our fishing grear of had kayaks. You could splash kayaks there.
But the downside of the river was fishermen and we even had folks came at night with bright light probably doing night fishing which made our stay not as private as we hoped to. Traffic in general was not that bad.
We wish Andrew the best of luck with his business.

Where to go
Myrtle Beach State Park
Myrtle Beach State Park is located right in town, offering a family-friendly campground with both RV and tent campsites. While not quite oceanfront, Myrtle Beach Campground is minutes from the beach. Follow Sculptured Oak Nature Trail and Yaupon Nature Trail to look for loggerhead sea turtles before returning to wifi-connected campsites with access to washrooms, bathhouses, and laundry facilities. Campers can also try crabbing or fishing for flounder, Spanish mackerel, and whiting using fishing rods available for rent from the pier gift shop.
Huntington Beach State Park
About 20 miles south of Myrtle Beach along Long Bay, Huntington Beach State Park offers surf fishing, boating, and birding opportunities. Campers also get the chance to swim in the Atlantic Ocean next to a secluded beach. For wildlife viewing, including alligators, explore the many boardwalks that extend into the freshwater lagoon and salt marsh. For a taste of history, visit Atalaya Castle, a masonry structure built in the 1930s without drawn plans. Campers will find beachfront camping opportunities at Huntington Beach State Park, including pet-friendly RV campsites with electricity, water, and sewer hookups. There is also complimentary wifi throughout the campground.
Francis Marion National Forest
For a camping experience near Myrtle Beach that’s more forested, consider dispersed, primitive camping at Francis Marion National Forest. Stretching over 250,000 acres, the forest spans diverse ecosystems with unique opportunities to view and hunt local wildlife. Hiking trails are relatively flat, but be prepared for swampy areas with ankle-deep water—especially in the eastern section of the park after spring and summer rains. Elmwood Recreation Area is popular during deer and turkey hunting seasons. And Buck Hall Recreation Area offers easy access to Bulls Bay for excellent shrimp baiting.
When to go
Summer is the most popular time of year for vacation rentals and camping in RVs around Myrtle Beach. Loads of sunshine and soaring temperatures are terrific for beach activities, swimming in the ocean, watersports, and mini-golf. Bugs are also at their peak during warm summer months. For fewer mosquitoes and thinning crowds, fall is a great option for camping in the area. The weather is cooler and less humid, plus it’s the perfect time of year to watch migratory birds and enjoy fall foliage.
