Stayed 10 days in April. Beautiful site, great beach, clean rest rooms, and friendly staff. Couldn’t ask for anything else.

Weekend Visit On Our Way South
Very nice campground our site 187 was perfect for our Bigfoot 17.5 Travel Trailer. The rest rooms and showers are pretty new and very clean. Staff is very friendly. Beach is beautiful. February is cool but a nice time to visit. Some sites are small and they let you know how big a RV it can accommodate and they are very accurate. Lots of privacy between our site and the neighborhood, although some loops are very open with no privacy.

Incredible
Great beach for exploring. Stayed in site 187, it was very private. The bugs were bad, the weather was hot and muggy, but scenery is unmatched. Hunting Island is a must see, and must explore. Will be back.

Overpriced
While the beach is beautiful the park was flooded (drainage issues) and damaged from a recent storm Not worth the price. I left without even pulling in after my site was flooded, uneven and had a tree stump blocking the back.

Love It
Great place to stay, walk the beach, rest and relax! We got a great spot due to a late cancellation. Park store has anything you forgot, so no problems there. Bring some good bug spray, the mosquitoes are a bit aggressive!

Great RV park. We stayed in site 147 and had a great view of the ocean right from our site!! It is right in front of the dump station but the site is very deep and you really don't notice the visits to the dump from other campers. Bring bug spray, Hunting Island has flies and mosquitoes, but the beaches are a must see!! The lighthouse is great and all of the hikes are easy to moderate! The beach accesses are very close. The ocean is typically mild, great for smaller children!! The rangers are very attentive and friendly!! This park is a great place to visit on the SC coast! Check out Gays Fish Company for fresh seafood!

Nice place! Yes, it’s a little soggy, just remember to pitch your tent so that it isn’t within reach of the swamp! I made the mistake of forgetting that the swamp grows and rises considerably when the tide comes in, luckily my awesome tent kept me safe and dry! I moved it for my second night. Staff is lovely and helpful, the other guests were super welcoming and fun. Bathroom is very clean, nice hot showers (helpful after you spend a whole morning dragging your tent out of a swamp in the middle of February.) The lighthouse is easy to hike to and the view is worth the climb! Lovely beach. The park is recovering from severe hurricane damage so some parts aren’t open and there is lots of downed vegetation, but it’s still beautiful.

Pissed!!!
Camped all over USA, this is the Pitts! Feet from swamp! I mean feet! Al kinds storm damage, elect. Wrong side of camper(reason for so close to swamp) power and water wouldn’t reach shore power. Fire ring less than 6 ft from camper door mud hole at camper door (forecast is down pours rain tonite). Thank god only here for 2 nites, and also thank god for jack daniels! Don’t I repeat DONT stay in site 115! THE WOREST ever!!!!! Oh wait! I believe I see a alligator headed this way! Gotta go!

Tight, damaged but nice beach/lighthouse
Roads and sites are still in rough shape. A couple sites have paved or gravel pads. Some sites are tight to maneuver into or crowded with your neighbor. Utilities are new and the restrooms were nice but a bit sandy. Park staff was friendly upon checkin and checkout. Apparently it's pretty easy to move sites if you're not happy initially. Lots of campers with dogs, some were rude. The beach is the real draw here. Uncrowded and a nice 1.5 mile walk to the lighthouse. Watch the tides though if you go.

Great Area
We stayed for 3 nights. The beaches are fantastic and the area is very nice. The bugs are terrible. The deer and raccoon are willing to come within 10 feet of you. I would go back when it cools down a little more to avoid the bugs. Also bring your own fire wood! They charge 6.25 for a small bag of it. They also give a great military discount.

We were there a day & a half before we had to evacuate for Florence. Love it - beach was quiet, peaceful, and uncrowded - the only way to be at the beach! WiFi’s a little sketchy, try to get front row, beautiful but a shame how much was lost in the past two hurricanes!

Needs Work
The beach was the most peaceful I have ever been on. I could look both ways as far as I could see and could count 15 people on each side. Awesome! 5 stars for beach. The camp sites were submerged and mosquitoes were the worst ever. The staff did an excellent job attempting to pump out the water but the damage done by hurricane Matthew was overwhelming. Hopefully they will get it draining again.

Mosquito Haven!
First of all, the park service has worked very hard to reopen the campground and it shows. The new restrooms are nice. Sites are level and in good shape. They lost all of the ocean front sites. The outermost sites are a haven for mosquitoes, especially those near the marshes. You will need lots of spray, a strong fan, and a tent with netting if you want to enjoy your campsite. Beach is beautiful and never crowded. People are super friendly. Will come back in the non summer months to avoid the mosquitoes.

Beautiful Location
Grounds are a bit crowded, but they're well maintained, level and clean. The location is gorgeous, right on the beach, with lush "jurassic park" looking forest all around. Bring bug spray!
