Welcome to Camp Moondog! Camp Moondog is a 36-acre forested retreat in beautiful Greenville, South Carolina, featuring two private campsites thoughtfully tucked into the woods. Flanked on both sides by the Saluda River—with nearly half a mile of river frontage—our property is a must-book for nature lovers, adventure seekers, and anyone craving a peaceful getaway filled with woods, water, and fresh air. Just across the river (or a quick 5-minute drive) is Dolly Cooper Park, a favorite for disc-golf enthusiasts and families exploring the local trails. Even better, Camp Moondog sits only 10 minutes from world-renowned Downtown Greenville—famous for its incredible restaurants, festivals, boutique shopping, and lively social scene. Here, you can enjoy an “off-the-grid” experience without giving up convenience: food delivery is still just a tap away, and last-minute essentials are an easy drive. At Camp Moondog, our philosophy is simple: provide a carefree, clean, and natural environment for a relaxing camping experience. If we’re available, we’re happy to use our ATVs to help transport your gear to any of the campsites—just give us at least a day’s notice so we can plan to meet you. Because the property naturally offers ample deadfall for firewood, we do not provide or sell pre-packaged bundles. Please keep this in mind if there has been recent rainfall, as the downed wood may be damp. We look forward to welcoming you to Camp Moondog. Happy Trails! ~ Mike & Kelly

The best camping in Paris Mountain State Park, SC guide

Overview

About

Escape from the bustling city to 1,540 acres of parkland near downtown Greenville. This state park was one of 16 built in SC by the Civilian Conservation Corps during the Great Depression. The heritage is beautifully preserved through exhibits in the renovated bathhouse, a.k.a. Park Center.

Four lakes and canoe, kayak and pedal boat rentals ensure easy water access. Find prime catfish and bass fishing at the 8-acre Lake Placid. Hike in 2 miles to savor the remote 15-acre Reservoir #3 lake. A designated swimming area offers cool refreshment in sultry summer months.

The 15-mile trail system at Paris Mountain includes popular multi-use and hiking-only trails. Campers find five trailside campsites around the North Lake Trail Loop.

39 paved campsites, 13 of which offer tent pads, offer water and electrical hookups. Some sites accommodate RVs, and all sites are close to restrooms with blissfully hot showers.

Notable campgrounds

  • Paved Campsites: Equipped with modern conveniences, these sites offer a comfortable camping experience amid the park's scenic beauty.
  • Tent Pads: For the traditional camper, these 13 designated pads provide a perfect spot to pitch a tent and enjoy the stars.
  • Trailside Camping: Adventure into the wild with 5 trailside campsites, offering a more secluded and immersive nature experience.

Tips for snagging a campsite

  • Book early to secure your spot, as Paris Mountain State Park is a popular destination with limited camping availability.
  • Consider visiting during the weekdays for better chances of finding an available campsite.
  • Keep an eye on cancellations, as last-minute openings can provide unexpected opportunities.
  • Explore nearby camping options to ensure you have a backup plan in case the park is fully booked.

When to go

The best time to visit Paris Mountain State Park is during the spring and fall when the weather is mild and the natural scenery is at its peak. Summer offers a cool swimming area, but be prepared for higher temperatures. Winters are quieter but can be chilly, so pack accordingly.

Know before you go

  • Check the park hours, open from 8am to 6pm daily, and plan your visit within this timeframe.
  • Admission fees apply: $6 for adults, $3.75 for SC seniors, and $3.50 for children aged 6-15.
  • Pets are welcome in most outdoor areas, but must be kept on a leash no longer than six feet.
  • wifi is available, ensuring you stay connected even while enjoying the great outdoors.
  • EV charging stations are provided, catering to environmentally conscious travelers.
