Nice PARK

Really nice office staff. They were also very nice at returning your call after leaving a message. Quick note: look for the red tin roof on the right Palmetto Shores. Make a right into that drive way. We had a nice escort. Please drive slow as there children playing. Don't forget to get a tag for your vehicle, no tag, no fun. Did not experience all the extras but it looked very clean. Lots of trees. Picnic table and BBQ grill. It appears to be very quiet right now.

We did some driving around and think #1 & #2 on this “Park” app are combined. Palmetto Shores and Big Water Santee are just ONE Park? It’s very confusing because there is another park #3 which has a “Santee” name but is under NEW KOA management? All three are nice, lol.

New name is Palmetto Shores RV resort. This was our first camping trip so i don't really have much to compare to. The pool/lazy river area was great. The putt putt course could use some repairs but it wasn't terrible. I thought it was pretty clean. We did not really use the bath house so i can not comment much on that. I do believe the restaurant is open now and i have heard the food is great. The playground for the kids is awesome! Forget the wifi, it's impossible to use. We will visit again as this is not far from home for us. Staff was very very friendly. We really enjoyed our stay!

Now Palmetto Shores

Could be under new management. They are painting the pools and equipment. Looks great. The restaurant is closed for renovation but opening soon. The park is clean and the staff seemed friendly. Guide took us to our site. This park is big! They have a few cabins and the pool is way more than just a pool...more like a lazy river thing. The is a dock and beach. Too early in the season for swimming and park was only 20% occupied. We don't need shower houses so didn't visit them but outside was freshly painted and neat.

Name Change: Palmetto Shores Resort

This campground has so much potential to become great. However at present it is not. Way understaffed for its size. It seems to be a locals campground. Dogs running free overflowing dumpsters, dead fish on the beach and not so clean comfort station. I think the 2 best things about the place were that the pool was kid friendly and Carley our check in person was great.
