This is a true ADVENTURE getaway on a private island that is only accessible by boat. Pack light and paddle a half mile down river to the private island to escape all the hustle & bustle of beach life! Over 1,000 sq ft of indoor & outdoor covered space. Paddle to the island in kayaks or be dropped off by pontoon. The River Bend Treehouse is more than a place to stay, it is a destination that you will not soon forget.

Fantastic Experience

Glamping Tent # 1

1st time camping here and it was wonderful. Staff is extremely attentive and nice. Very laid back and unstressful which is really what your looking for on a weekend getaway to recharge from the day to day. The glamping tent we booked was extremely clean and comfortable overlooking the river making it very tranquil. If you bring children, the site has a myriad of events and activities to keep them busy and having fun. The whole facility is extremely well kept and a lot of thought and effort was put in to create the appropriate holiday theme of the season (we were there late Oct and it looked fabulous). We are definitely going to book another stay there especially with all the warm weather activities they have like kayaking and tubing. We might consider one of thier more excluded camping sites that they offer. Very much recommend checking it out whether old or young.

UNPLUGGED!

River Island Glamping Tents

Awesome place. Cherish and Jeff have a beautiful property and go over and above to make you comfortable. We are beach bums so we only kayaked 1x but it was great. We did the s'mores night at the island and met some great folks from Nebraska. We also talked to Jeff and learned how he is living his dream. Cherish and Liv were our guides that evening and made the paddle down and back so enjoyable. If you need to unplug and reset yourself do not hesitate to book a glamping tent here!

Wooded campsites on the Waccamaw

Really enjoyed the stay. Tent camping does put you a decent distance away from the main site - emergency bathroom trips aren’t really possible. The tent site did have a strong urine odor. Everything else was great.

River Island Glamping Tents

As a family we had a great time. The set up made life very easy and the staff were very helpful. Kids were kept busy with fun activities. Shared fridge space and ice was readily available. Provided grill area also (with sink station to clean up dishes etc after) shower area and bathrooms were excellent. The glamping tents were great. Spacious and beds were comfortable. As a family, we stayed on a newly constructed platform that had a tent for us and a separate tent for the kids (right beside each other) which the kids loved and so did we. We can’t wait to return!

Welcoming hosts who communicated well and ensured an enjoyable stay, artfully crafted riverside glamping experience, and plenty to enjoy and explore at the campsite or by kayak and pontoon boat. A visit to the escape island is a must!

Glamping near the beach

River Island Glamping Tents

Awesome camping spots just a few miles from North Myrtle. They have everything you need, glamping tents and camping spots. There is a bathroom and really nice outdoor showers, ice, huge communal fire pit, bbq’s and outdoor kitchen area, corn hole and other outdoor games. We stayed in a glamping tent and the bed was super comfy, they provided a power box to charge our electronics as well as a propane heater which really came in handy the last night when it got cold! There is even a little ice box outside each glamping tent and we were given a complimentary s’more kit. The hosts were very kind and helpful. We went to several different beaches in the area while visiting family. We didn’t have time to try the kayaking but it looked great! We would definitely stay here again.

Quiet getaway, low key, yet close to the ocean and attractions. Campsites are large, spacious, and amazing trees

River Island Glamping Tents

Neat little find. We spent most of our time during the day at the beach, which is conveniently located about 10 min away. Though, we would stay again and like to spend more time at camp. Tons to do there at the site - kayaking, slack line, cooking. All the activities you need are provided right there. We had a great time :)

We had a great time at River Island! The camping spots were private and well maintained, sitting areas were cozy and Jeff was so helpful. Would definitely come back here during the warmer months!

Excellent experience!

River Island Glamping Tents

The glamping tent was a great experience! The space has a comfortable bed, lights, the ability to charge devices if you’d like, and a good roof to keep you dry if it rains. Everything you could possibly want or need is included - firewood, clean bathrooms, games, picnic tables, a cooler and ice, clean water, even a s’mores kit. The kayaks were definitely a highlight. This stay offered the perfect balance of convenience and the ability to unplug and be in nature. The hosts are very kind and offered great recommendations. We had such a good time and hope to come back!

Great weekend getaway! We paddle boarded down the river to the island, played corn hole and relaxed at our private campsite in the woods. Clean amenities, tons of back yard games to keep you entertained and kind hosts. Thank you!
