Very nice people, and they seem to really care about the park. We were just there for two nights, but we enjoyed it. Good satellite reception. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Typical KOA. Cable did not work well. Site was clean and level. Freeway noise is 24/7. You are guided to your site by a person who acts like he'd rather be somewhere else. Orders you left, then right, stop, go, etc. You get the picture. I got the feeling he didn't approve of women drivers, even the ones who'd traversed the US 5 or 6 times, and really do know what they are doing. Anyway, after putting up with him we settled in for the evening of freeway noise, but otherwise it's an ok park. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a typical KOA with the standard amenities, above average road noise, and high priced camp sites. Roads are combination of paved/gravel and need some work. Sites are all pull thrus on SC fine sand, but they are level. The noise from the adjacent interstate is 24/7. This is a convenient stopping place for north and south traveling snowbird traffic so also expect noise from the early risers who just pulled in for one night. Picnic tables at each site and a few fire rings scattered thru out. Water and voltage was good. Wi-Fi is a free, third party system. Signals were excellent thru out the CG. Plenty of washer/dryers in the laundry. Most sites have trees which may interfere with satellite signals unless an external dish is used. Cell phone reception is good. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We found the campground welcoming, reasonably attractive and generally more than adequate. The cable TV selection was extremely limited, a big disappointment for those who want a reasonable choice of channels. Seems to me a campground should not advertise cable if it includes only a few unappealing channels. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We were there for 1 month and the WiFi never worked. We have a bus conversion and after we paid, the owner stated he doesn't allow conversions. He later stated we could stay one month and then came back and stated KOA does not allow bus conversions at all. I called Corporate and found that what they allow is up to the individual owners, not Corporate. The sites are too close together, leaves and tree limbs are not cleaned in a timely fashion, dryers barely put out heat, dogs run without leashes with managements knowledge. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stopped here one night in our fifth wheel. Check in was good, friendly and we were escorted to our site. We asked for a fairly level site, full hookups. There were about 30 empty sites in the area we were taken to and we were put next to a long term old rv that was "ratty" looking. And there was a huge paving dump truck parked there the entire time we were there. Not exactly good scenery for a KOA (mostly the truck - it could have been moved to another area of the park. One reason we stayed there because they advertised wireless at your site. Well, it didn't work at the site. Worked fine in the office and 2 out of 3 people said it is sometimes "iffy to work" and they are "having problems in that area". Well, tell us first, not before we get all set up. There were no other problems until it was check out time. The owner/manager was kind of upset that we asked for some credit of not having the internet available at our site as advertised but he did give us some credit. Don't advertise it if you don't have it! I wish I could have posted the photos of the dump truck. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We had mechanical problems on the way to Florida and had to stop in Florence overnight. Staff at campground helped to call mobile mechanic and were very helpful. WiFi worked fine on my site and so did my satellite. Good stop overnight near Route 95 and has a small lake between Route 95 & campground. Noise not too bad from highway. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Stayed here overnight during our trip to Florida. It is a very nice campground and the staff were great. Had problems getting the WIFI to work that night. We camped here in a Motor Home. Will probably stay here again on my way to or from Florida. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We really try to avoid KOA's if we can. Unfortunately we were not able to stay anywhere else that night. I called ahead to ask if our 45' motorhome & trailer would fit in a pull-thru. They assured me that if we could accept a 30 amp site, we would fit. The access road was ok, but the campground is obviously an older one not made for larger motorhomes & 5th wheels. Our site was very close to 2 neighbors (including barking dog) inside their motorhome. The breakers kept tripping. We will try not to stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very conveniently located at I-95 exit, get some highway noise as well. The internet access is free, the speed is 11.0Mbps. The path way was very dark when returning from town after dinner. The bathroom and restroom are clean. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This KOA has seen better days. There were more than a few rusted and older RV's and the toilets and showers were certainly out of date. Not much in the store either. Don't remember seeing much of a playground either. I'll admit that the pool was nice and clean, thus, IMHO; this leaves this campground in the "overnight here if you have to" column. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Stayed here overnight during our trip to Florida. It is a very nice campground and the staff were great. Had problems getting the WIFI to work that night and I heard others talking about it. It was up and running when I logged on the next morning. Made reservations to stay here overnight again on our return trip home. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is the second time that we used this campground as a one night stopover on the way to Florida. It is very convenient to I95. It is an older campground but we found the facilities very clean and the staff very friendly. We would visit here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Decent overnight stop on the way south. A little pricey. We arrived late and were pointed to our site, unfortunately it was practically in the parking lot. Sites are close together. Pretty pond and good playground for the kids. Don't let the distance listed in the books fool you - you can clearly see the traffic on I-95 from the campground. It would have been noisy if we had the windows open. It had clean showers and bathrooms and a well stocked store. We will probably stay at Camp Pedro instead for the quick overnight next time as it is almost half the price and better. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice campground. Clean, quiet. Large enough sites. We didn't feel crammed in next to a neighbor. Friendly staff, with a well stocked store, and the laundry room is set up really well, to allow more than a couple of people at a time to do laundry if needed. It was spotless. They take the time to follow up your visit with a thank you email, as well as confirm they have received your reservation if you use the KOA on line reservation system. We would recommend this campground, and stay there again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Nice friendly campground. Easy in easy out sites. Very quiet with mostly shaded sites. Friendly staff and well stocked store. We enjoyed fishing in the catch and release ponds. The signage getting into the park is very poorly positioned. Our overnight stay was relaxing and given the chance we would stay there again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We stopped here on the way home from Florida. Easy access, very nice, friendly helpful staff. Nice wide, shady, level site. When we stayed there it was not too crowded but I understand it can be quite busy when there are races at Darlington. The water melon social at 8pm was a big plus after a day of driving. While close to I95 highway, noise was not an issue. They are in the process of upgrading service to a number of sites but this did not cause any problems getting in or out. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We stayed here for one night on the way to disney. The staff could not have been nicer, went out of their way to make us as comfy as possible, it seemed like a well run place. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
An excellent campground. Spotless showers, bathrooms, and laundry room. Good gravel interior roads, with easy pull-through access. Within a mile or so of I-95, but no highway noise. Very friendly staff. The owners hosted a free watermelon get-together for everybody. We'll definitely stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
A great stopover park. Easy off and on I95. Sites were level and pull-thru. The pool was covered and heated for use in colder months. Staff was very friendly. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Stopped in Florence while traveling north to Williamsburg, VA. Enjoyed the facilities and personel so much that I changed my returning plans so that I stayed there again. On my second visit I had some hitch "issues" to deal with and found the staff very helpful. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We stayed coming & going to Orlando from NJ. The staff was very helpful, even with the odd hours the office & store are open. When I needed propane a phone call was made & the gent came right out to help. They also have a air line for filling tires. On the trip back home we arrived 10:30PM and was warmly greeted by the night manager. Forget going cheap & staying in a parking lot or truck stop. This place was quiet, safe with a nice park for the kids to run around & get tired. The store was well stocked with food & goodies for you & your RV. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This was a nice, neat campground. The sites were level and the small lake on the property was kind of pretty and home to some ducks that helped you wake up in the morning. It is close to I-95 and there was a moderate amount of road noise, but nothing that would interfere with sleep. Not many long term campers. It is what I would expect from a nice "one night stay" type campground. We would stay again. We camped here in a camper.
Good spot to stop overnight when traveling on Interstate 95, easy off & on. Most sites are in an open area, few trees. There is a pool & a nice restaurant and bar at the hotel next to the campground that is affiliated with them. Food was good and reasonable. The rate I paid was a Passport America rate. Bathrooms were heated & clean and there is a small store in the office with limited supplies. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Unfortunately, there was flooding in the area when we were there, so the site selection was limited. All we could get was 30 amp electric and water. The sites, though, were large, reasonably level, and pleasantly treed. They were having a free Thanksgiving dinner the night we were there. Extremely gracious hosts. The Passport America rate made it even more attractive. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Not a destination site for most, but a number of campers were there to play golf in the area. A short walk from the campground is a partner-hotel with pool and hot-tub which are available to the campers. Hotel has restaurant with buffet for those too tired to cook. Campground is very close to I-95 but noise was not a factor. If heading North/South and need a place to spend the night, this is an excellent choice. It is PPA so rates make it perfect, and better than a Walmart lot. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Not a horrible place for a quick overnight, but not terrific, either. It is located right off the I-95 freeway, so there was significant road noise. In winter, it was bearable. It's not meant to be a vacation hot spot, simply a place to get off the road, have hookups, and rest. Clean, level sites with pull-thru's, full privileges at adjacent motel's swimming pool -- we've seen a lot worse for the money. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a small privately run campground. We ran away there from a hurricane that hit Myrtle
Beach in August 04. It was well run and clean. Not a place I'd go to spend a week, but a fine place to stay for a night or a few nights. I recommend it. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
