Weekend Trip to Serenity on the Saluda

The setup was perfect. I was a little worried about making it down to the site with my travel trailer (27 ft) but it was doable. Plenty of space to spread out and had plenty of privacy. We would definitely stay again.

Weekend Trip to Big Creek RV Park of Saluda SC

Camp site was amazing. Jame's was very accommodating allowing me to switch sites when I realized there was no power on the site I originally booked. Location is beautiful. No light polution, can see tons of stars at night. Bathroom and shower are small but heated and air conditioned with plenty of hot water. Easy access trails to the restroom/shower. Had a lovely time.

Weekend Trip to Serenity on the Saluda

I loved this site! Super beautiful with the trees and river. There's ample room for 2 vehicles and 2 tents. No picnic table which would've been nice, but we brought our own and it was ok. The fire pit was nice as well. The river bank was steep so not easy to get in and out of, but I think there's a boat ramp somewhere. I would definitely love to stay here again, overall a really nice spot

We enjoyed our time there. They we making improvements to the property while we were there... it will only get better with time. We were there for a disc golf tournament... the course is amazing!

Weekend Trip to Serenity on the Saluda

The Hideaway was the PERFECT spot for my pup’s first camping trip! This campsite had the perfect amount of seclusion so she didn’t run into other campsites to make “new friends,” it was right next to an open field for her get her zoomies out, and the river was still super close. John was an incredibly kind and generous host! I met him in the driveway on the way in and mentioned that I forgot a fire starter. He graciously brought a lighter, paper, and extra wood to the Hideway within minutes. On a scale of 1-5 Tents (stars) with 5 Tents being the best… I give Serenity on the Saluda a whopping 10 Tent🏕️ rating!

This Property was purchased by Grandfather in the 70s and then was passed to my Mother. In 2013 I decided to live life differently and start from the ground up building with natural materials and found materials. At that time I was fortunate enough to have the land passed to me and I started building a home for myself and to be close to my mothers home nearby. After achieving the basics I decided that the best use of this beautiful land was to create a place for people to relax and enjoy, a park like environment dedicated to preserving natural beauty and amplifying it through a permaculture lifestyle. 8 years later I am blown away at how far the dream has become a reality and love sharing my space with people from all over the country.

The best camping in Lake Greenwood State Park, SC guide

Overview

About

The 11,400-acre reservoir is the main draw of Lake Greenwood State Park, a placid waterfront retreat in the heart of South Carolina’s Piedmont region. Embark on thrilling boating adventures (two boat ramps provide access) to Lake Greenwood’s sparkling waters filled with largemouth bass, bream, black crappie, stripers, perch, channel catfish, and more. Or spend your days exploring the lovely trails, have lunch at one of the picnic shelters next to the lake, and then go camping under the starry skies. Many of the campsites (for both tents and RVs) actually sit right on the shore.

Notable campgrounds

Best for privacy: Diana’s Loop offers one RV site in a private, wooded area.
Best for paddlers: Big Creek RV Park has several sites with waterfront access.
Best for boaters: Eagles Landing has a private beach and boat ramp.

Tips for snagging a campsite

You can reserve the park's 125 campsites in advance via the South Carolina State Parks website. Reservations are available all year round.
Most campsite reservations require at least a 2-night stay, and some locations and dates may require longer stays.
Reservations open 13 months in advance. Reservations requested less than one day before check-in must be made directly through the park.
Campsites can book up as fast, especially on summer and holiday weekends. So book your campsite as early as possible to ensure availability.

When to go

Roaring River State Park welcomes visitors year-round. However, the optimal times to visit the region are during the warm spring weather and longer days (or September to October) or early fall due to mild temperatures and the stunning foliage (March to October). Fishing is enjoyable during all four seasons at Lake Greenwood State Park. Still, summer draws the most visitors as the swimming pool is open and colorful wildflowers adorn the riverbanks.

Know before you go

Lake Greenwood State Park has an admission fee for day-use visitors, while camping fees apply separately.
Park amenities include picnic shelters, playgrounds, and a swimming area for additional recreational opportunities.
Check-in time for camping is 2pm, and check out is at noon.
Between April 1 and August 31, campers can stay a maximum of 14 nights at Lake Greenwood. After the 14th night, they must vacate the park for seven consecutive nights before returning.
