We stayed a week using KOA Anderson's "Hot Deal". The experience was positive right from the check-in. The owners are enthusiastic about the day-to-day operation and this was reflected in their workamper couple. Everything was clean, neat and in good repair. The CG is convenient to shopping and restaurants. We had family staying here, too and the time spent with them was great. All in all this is a campground that not only offers a lot, but delivers as promised. We will go back. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
They have a very congenial hostess. The WiFi seems to be much better than spring of 2008. There is some traffic noise. There is easy access and fairly level. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Very nice, clean and well maintained campground. Restrooms and showers very clean. Staff friendly and able to give information about the local area. Price very reasonable. Good location. Easy on/off interstate. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
The biggest positive for this park is the friendly staff. They are especially helpful and considerate. The park is heavily shaded with fairly level sites. As previous reviews mentioned, the sites are small and close together. A few are gravel, but most are sandy and very messy when it rains. The roads in the park are fairly narrow and some of the turns are sharp. The cable and WiFi are good. It’s a safe, secure setting not far from the Interstate. We didn’t look at the pool, but the miniature golf course was in some disrepair. We would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Although this is a fairly small park for big rigs, it has great people running it, and has become a favorite place for us to stay while visiting family in that neck of the woods. Always clean, with friendly folks all around (mostly Clemson fans). Pet friendly with containers and baggies in case you forget yours. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Sites are clean and fairly level. Management is nice. Sites need gravel. When it rains mud is a problem, and it is hard to keep it out of your RV. We have stayed in much worse and a few better. With gravel on the sites I would have no complaints. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Great spot for an overnight stay. Sites are small and limited number of long pull thrus. Owners are obviously trying to make it better. Pool not open when we were there because of heavy rains in prior days. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Other KOA's could take a lesson from this campground. New gravel on roads and most sites providing good driving surface and level sites. Most sites are very wide and spacious with plenty of trees for shade. Not friendly to rooftop satellite, but the park has a very large selection of cable TV. Convenient to Lake Hartwell, Anderson, Clemson and surrounding area. We would definitely return to this park. Our rate is based on a 1-week stay. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Restrooms/showers were new and were very nice with both in a private room, laundry was also nice and large, would have rated it higher but roads needed grading due to rain run off. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very convenient location to I-85. Staff is very friendly and accommodating. Sites are standard sized, but adequate for most units. Bath house is clean and equipped. Some permanent residents live in tents and walk around in various stages of undress. One site, on the top of the hill, had small children playing and a permanent male tent resident appeared only in see through pajama bottoms. No extra charge. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Rustic but clean park full of trees. Many fairly large pull through sites, paved in dirt or gravel. Our site was fairly level but others looked like they may not be level. Cable and Wi-Fi worked OK People are very friendly and helpful. Woman took us to the site and made sure that everything was OK before leaving. I would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This KOA was very clean, as well as the Restrooms extremely clean. The owners went out of their way to assist us upon arrival. She escorted us to our site, and made sure it would accommodate us for the Night! We will go back again, we will recommend this park to friends. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Clean well kept park. The only drawback is the $2.00 per day extra for cable, but offset by free wifi. Restrooms extremely clean, Pool is small, but easily accessible. Lots of permanent residents, some getting out of control with yard debris and tarp covers over the roof. Will go back again and recommend park to friends. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very nice campground. Well off the interstate so there was no traffic noise. Office staff very helpful and friendly. We were led to our site by an escort and she checked to make sure the power and water were working. Nice roads and wooded lots. I highly recommend this campground. It is what camping should be. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Okay campground for overnight stay which is what we did as we were just passing thru. The other campground we stopped before this one was a dump and we didn't feel like driving too much further as it had been a long day as it was, so we paid the $30 rate and stayed at this KOA. Don't feel it was worth the price and would try to find someplace else if passing thru again, but it was okay in a pinch. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This was a great stopping off overnight park, close to interstate. The owners were friendly, the park attractive and clean. It was close to the lake as well. We camped in December. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This campground is very clean and in a great location on Lake Hartwell. However, the sites have little to no privacy because they are about 20 foot apart. We were barely able to fit our 28 foot travel trailer in our designated spot. On a positive, you can reserve individual spots which is something that I wish the Georgia parks will start doing eventually. There were no playgrounds or common areas that were in the campgrounds which is a deal breaker for us. The check-in is a little tricky as well. We will not return to this park. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Nice large, level site close to the beach, bathhouse, and playground. Easy access to the boat ramp, and you can bring your boat without an additional fee. Nice park personnel; they let me drive through the day before and choose a site. You can't take your pet to the beach or playground due to state laws, but the ranger who told us was nice about it. Will stay again in a few weeks. Love it and the beautiful setting! We camped here in a Tent.
Like most COE parks this one is beautiful. Roads are asphalt and sites are hard packed gravel, level, wide, have 30/50 amps, water, fire rings, BBQ equipment for cooking, tons of trees, and well keep. On lake Harwell. Lake level is way down due to no rain in long time now. Very quit. Lots of playground for kids. Staff was very nice at check in. Bathhouse look new and were spotless as well. Gate was locked at night. Dump station was super size and you can dump on way in or out with no problems. DTV will pick up number of good channels. Verizon cell phone worked well here. Price was on Golden Age Pass. We will return anytime. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is so close to everything yet feels tucked away from the world. We had a sight that was quiet, private, and quite large. Okay, it was huge. I have never seen sites so big! Hartwell Lake is down and muddy, but that's not the fault of the campground. The staff was friendly, and the facilities are relatively new. I felt comfortable enough to walk by myself at dusk, and sighting two large beautiful deer only feet from us was breath-taking. We had a massive ant problem on our site, but we're in the South in the summer in the woods. That's nothing unusual. We would definitely stay again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Have stayed before and enjoy campground. This time we had trouble with ants. Had to go out and get ant powder, and even had park maintenance come spray site. Didn't help. Campground host said they had been fighting this problem all summer. Noticed several sites had powder down for ants too. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Nice COE campground on Lake Hartwell. Sites are spacious and level. Lake is very low at this time. Similar to other COEs in the area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Clean good large spaces.Quiet well-protected for children.Good playgrounds with sand base.All bathrooms and showers are cleaned and stocked daily.We have enjoyed this camground for the last 3 years and always enjoy our stay no matter what time we go. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Another great COE park in SC. Stayed for the weekend and wanted to stay longer. Had a site on lake with a great view. Park was very clean with cleaning crew coming through every day. Would give a 10 if they were open year round. Will go back. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We love this campground. We spent several weeks here in the summer of 2006 and plan to camp here again this summer. The sites are large, many are on the water. Lots of wildlife, deer, geese, ducks, heron, etc. are seen in the park. This is a Corp of Engineer Park. Lots of ants so be prepared for that. Wish it was open year round and we'd stay here even more often. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This was a very nice park if you like old-time camping. Very rustic, big trees, mulched roadways. It was very quiet with a beautiful view of the lake with the marina directly across the lake. One of the best sunsets over a lake I've ever seen. We camped here in a Motorhome.
