Discover a unique camping experience at our 47-site wooded campground, where you can immerse yourself in nature without the hustle and bustle of "parking lot" camping. Situated on 19 acres in the scenic Piedmont region of South Carolina, we are conveniently located less than a mile off Exit 60 on Interstate 26 in Kinards (pronounced "Ky"-nerds). During your stay, take advantage of the many outdoor activities available nearby. Enjoy fishing in the serene waters of Lake Murray, explore the hiking trails of Sumter National Forest, or catch a performance at the Newberry Opera House, which offers a variety of shows beyond just opera.

Our campground serves as an ideal stopping point for travelers heading to coastal destinations such as Myrtle Beach, Charleston, Hilton Head, and Savannah, or those simply passing through on their way to Florida, Tennessee, and Georgia.

Rosewood Farm and Agripark

Rosewood Farm and Agripark is my home. I honestly had about the most amazing childhood one could have on this very land! We hunted, fished, made mud pies and played outside for hours, as long as we were in shouting distance for supper time! I am so fortunate to be the daughter of two amazing parents, who had a dream to build a working farm from nothing more than a logging trail in the woods. They built a 3 story, 10,000 square foot house by themselves- while raising a family! We have 200 acres of farmland that features rolling hills, multiple ponds, creeks, farm animals, show horses and countless wildlife viewing opportunities. Wild turkey and deer roam free all over the farm, coveys of dove fly out from the pastures and trails, and coyotes howl in the night. Listen to the frogs croaking, crickets chirping and whipporwhills calling every evening under a magical blanket of stars. Take a nature hike through the trails that meander through the woods around the park. Our newest venture is to offer primitive camping and some cabin rentals around our 60 acre Agripark! For those wanting to step it up a notch, we have erected a large concrete floor, covered event barn (for parties, family reunions, weddings, cowboy church, etc..,) and also a huge petting zoo barn with an area behind it for pony rides and 4-h/FFA functions. Also, a greenhouse is being erected next, that will teach people about aquaponics and hydroponics! Many things are on the immediate horizon for this special property. While we are under heavy construction at the moment in some areas of the park, many amenities are currently available. Why not unplug from the daily grind and spend time with those that matter most? My goal is to make this land as magical for your family as it has been for mine!
