3.5 acre property, last remaining part of old inlet horse farm, with plenty of natural buffers from the few neighbors in our vicinity and between our camp sites, as well as the road. So close to everything the inlet area has to offer. Beaches, tidal inlet with boat ramps, Waccamaw River with boat ramps, restaurants, shops, bars, State Parks, nature preserves, fun attractions and much, much more, all just moments away. We are set up as a “primitive” camping experience, the property is kept very natural, unmanicured for the most part, little to no herbicides or insecticides used here. It’s a work in progress, is difficult for me to tackle chores due to physical disabilities, so some private areas are disorganized at this time. I live here full time, with two cats & 5 chickens whom are all free range. I live here in a double wide by myself, two outdoor cats. Deer, fox, rabbits, hawks and the like are common visitors. This is brand new to me, lots of improvements to be made in the future to make a guests stay even better, so for right now it’s bare bones. Can accommodate tents or certain campers. No pump out, no electricity or running water for “sites” yet, if ever, but running water is here and available for free. Additions to come soon: outdoor shower, available compost toilet available for rent while here, fresh herbs, vegetables, fresh local eggs, firewood, and covered gathering/ cooking area (not built yet) and much more, I’m really excited. Open to idea’s and options. No fireworks/ gunfire allowed at anytime, no “parties”, but gatherings, campfires, games and fun always welcome. I prefer meeting guests apon arrival to answer any questions and help all feel comfortable. I do have medical conditions that may prohibit it at times though.

Private Riverfront Retreat on the Scenic Waccamaw Escape to your own private getaway on the beautiful Waccamaw River in Conway, South Carolina. Tucked beside the peaceful Shaftesbury Glen Golf & Fish Club—but well outside the golf community—this 2.2-acre property offers unmatched privacy and tranquility. Enjoy exclusive access to over 350 feet of serene riverfront, shaded by towering hardwoods and pines. This quiet retreat feels a world away from the hustle and bustle, yet it’s ideally located for exploring the area. Historic downtown Conway, with its charming shops, restaurants, and scenic Riverwalk, is just 10 miles away via Hwy 905. If you're craving sand and surf, the north end of Myrtle Beach is only 15.5 miles away via Hwy 22, with quick connections to Hwy 31 for easy travel to North Myrtle Beach, Surfside, Garden City, Murrells Inlet, and the rest of the Grand Strand. Whether you're looking to relax in nature, paddle along the river, or explore the nearby coastal towns, this peaceful haven offers the perfect basecamp. *We now have a commercial portable toilet for your convenience. The toilet is serviced and cleaned weekly by the contractor* ***For your information*** There are two security cameras on site, one watches the entrance to the property (for obvious reasons), and the other is pointed at the river in the center of the property (this is because I need to know the height of the river at times, especially this time of year with hurricane season). Neither of these cameras look towards the interior of the property, or towards the "beach/kayak launch" where you can walk to the water. I have included photos in the listing where you can see screen shots of what these cameras' fixed viewpoints are. Rest assured, your privacy is not compromised.*** FOR TRASH DISPOSAL, there is an Horry County Recycling Center convieniently located 6 miles from the campsite, on Hwy 905. Here's the address: 7554 Highway 905, Conway 29526. Here's their days/hours of operation from the Horry County website: Hours: Monday, Wednesday - Saturday, 7AM - 7PM, Sunday, 1PM - 7PM-CLOSED Tuesday

This is a place to get away and enjoy nature but you aren't too far from a local grocery store, a few restaurants and a local park. If you are here for the beach, the closest beach and also our favorite is Cherry Grove Beach, only a 30 minute drive. There are a few kayak rental companies we can connect you to if you'd like and we know all the local spots for adventure, food and shopping. Pick a hammock and relax listening to the birds, we also have an outdoor kitchen to prepare food and community firepits to gather around. We want this to be a relaxing getaway, to connect with yourself, others and nature.

Weekend Trip to The Rusty Spur

We were only there briefly to work the bugs out of a new travel trailer, as it's close to home, but our short time there was great. Lorie responded quickly every time I reached out & her husband made sure we had everything we needed when I got there. My wife used one of the showers behind our trailer & said it was nice & clean. I have nothing but good to say about the Rusty Spur, but Hipcamp needs to revamp their rescheduling policy. I wanted to reschedule due to a tropical storm & Hipcamp wanted to charge me double. Luckily Lorie worked with me & let us come the following weekend, which was very nice of her.

We absolutely loved our stay here! The campsite was wonderful and surrounded by so much beautiful wildlife. It was honestly such a special experience getting to enjoy nature. Right above the wooden picnic table was a squirrel nest, and every day we got to watch five little baby squirrels come out to play! Every evening, four deer would run across the property, and we loved sitting back and watching them peacefully graze. At night, the whole place was so quiet and relaxing, with the sounds of owls in the distance. It was the perfect little nature escape! But what really made our stay extra special was our host, Andrew. When my car battery died, he went out of his way to help us jump-start it. I truly appreciated his kindness and willingness to help us when we needed it. Andrew is a wonderful person, and having a host like him makes an already great camping experience even better. If you're looking for a peaceful campsite where you can enjoy wildlife, unplug from the busy world, and feel welcomed by a genuinely kind host, I absolutely recommend staying here. We would happily come back again! Thank you, Andrew, for such a wonderful stay and for going above and beyond to help us! ❤️

Myrtle Beach State Park camping guide

Overview

About

With its sandy shores, fishing pier, and fringe of forest, Myrtle Beach State Park is a highlight of South Carolina’s Grand Strand coastline. Hit the mile-long beach to swim, sunbathe, and surf fish, or cast your line from the pier and fish for king mackerel, trout, and flounder. Away from the coast, the scenic nature trails are open to hikers, bike riders, and equestrians, and Myrtle Beach Campground is just a short stroll from the beach. Ample space exists for RVs and tents, with a mix of electric and full hook-up sites.

Tips for snagging a campsite

You can reserve one of 336 campsites and six cabins via the South Carolina State Parks website. Online reservations must be made a minimum of one day in advance for camping or three days for cabins.
Campsite reservations open 13 months in advance. A minimum two-night stay is required for all campsites, while cabins are only bookable by the week.
The campground can fill up, especially on summer and holiday weekends. Book a minimum of three months in advance to avoid disappointment, especially if you have a specific site in mind.

When to go

Crowds flock to Myrtle Beach in summer, and the best time for swimming is from May through mid-September. Parking and picnic spots fill quickly on summer and holiday weekends, when wait times can be up to 45 minutes between 10am to 2pm. Camping is possible year-round, but the overflow site is only open from Easter through Labor Day.

Know before you go

Myrtle Beach State Park is in Myrtle Beach, 90 miles northeast of Charleston or about a 2-hour drive.
There is a per-person admission fee to visit the park, and tickets can also be used for the same-day entrance to nearby Huntington Beach State Park. Pier fishing and camping reservation fees also apply.
Facilities include an activity center and nature center, a gift shop, picnic shelters, restrooms, and playgrounds. Free wifi can be found at the campground and ranger station.
Lifeguards patrol the north side of the beach from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Umbrellas and beach chair rentals are available from the lifeguard station.
Accessible campsites, restrooms, and picnic areas are available. A beach wheelchair can be rented on a first-come, first-served basis from the gift shop.
