Angles Glow 6

96% (13)

RV/tent site · Sleeps 6 · Vehicles under 3500 ft

Site 6 is a large pull-in site. According to an experienced RV-er a 35ft fifth-wheel towed with a single rear wheel crew-cab truck will fit. You must back out and there should be 8 to 10ft to back around the camper after getting it situated. The camper will be facing trees and a gully so you can enjoy a natural view. The tributary is straight across the road and Big Creek is about a minute's walk down the road. Bring your walking shoes, a paddle boat, and some gear to make the most of your stay.

Bent Elm Knoll 9

100% (11)

RV/tent site · Sleeps 6 · Vehicles under 44 ft

Bent Elm Knoll is site #9 in Big Creek RV Park of Saluda SC. Elevated about 5 degrees the view is enhanced but smaller rigs will be a lot easier to park. You have your own space, picnic table, fire-ring grill, power, water and sewer hook-up. You can take a quick tour of the walking trail or explore the creek and fringe property about 3 minutes walk from your site. During the '80s a bulldozer was used to make more space for soil beans. The Elm survived but is permanently bent. The Farmers however didn't fare so well.

Tributary View 5

100% (6)

RV/tent site · Sleeps 6 · Vehicles under 40 ft

A large 40ft rig can back in but may find hookups difficult to reach. I'd recommend a tent, camper van or if you can't find anything else you can back in a camper. The portable park shower is on the corner of the site. Come relax and enjoy the day. Take a walk by the creek or paddle all day if you like. Get settled in and extend your stay.

Big Creek RV Park site 4

Tent site · Sleeps 6

Site 4 is named Corner Creek Bend because you're at the corner of the park on the corner of the creek. This would be great for those looking for a little spot close to the water. Pitch a tent here and then slide a kayak into the creek or just fish from the bank.

Big Creek RV Park site 7

Tent site · Sleeps 6

Named Big Cedar Twins because of the 2 large cedars. This site is long. Should be room for a few cars and tents. View of forest, gully, and Big Creek tributary. You're about a minute's walk from Big Creek or the restroom.

Big Creek RV Park site 3

Tent site · Sleeps 6

Site 3 is a level site on a hill facing Big Creek. I named it Mimosa by the Creek because there is a large mimosa tree to the right facing the water. The site would be great for a tent or vehicle. You can probably pull through pulling a small boat. With a large rig, you may need to back in.

A smaller site between the walking trail and site 7. Site 7b named Red Bud Minus has a level grassy surface for a tent. It's a 2-minute walk to Big Creek and a short walk to the restroom.

Tent site · Sleeps 6

Named the Big Oak Plateau. This site makes a nice tent site but I've also had campers stay here too. When time permits this will become full hookup. Enjoy this site was unaffected by storms this year.

Big Creek RV Park is a haven for those who crave tranquility and a well-maintained environment. The sites are spacious and set in a serene wooded area, with the added bonus of a friendly and accommodating host, James. Many visitors highlight the clean facilities, including the shower and restrooms, and the opportunity to explore nature with activities like kayaking and gravel biking. However, one visitor noted a disruptive experience with nearby campers, suggesting that while most find peace, it’s not guaranteed for everyone.

Dogwoods by the Creek 2

We camped for 10 nights. Very quiet other than the birds singing. We enjoyed visiting with our children and grandchildren who all live in the area. Our host, James, was very nice and accommodating. Our campsite was a mix of sun and shade. The kids had a great time kayaking and fishing in Big Creek which borders part of the property. It was like camping in the middle of the woods, but close to the little town of Saluda. Thank you James. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Big Creek RV Park site 4

The campground is great but if youre from out of town... people will run around your site in the middle of the night. I had people constantly running through while I was in my tent. Making noises and messing with things.. to the point where I wasn't sure if they were a threat or not and armed myself with my pistol. If your dogs are barkers.. people will intentionally do things to aggravate your dogs constantly. I never experienced such disrespect from other campers like that before.
