This park is our least favorite of those we have tried in the area.There were lots of biting insects that covered our camper and invaded our space at night.The rules of no dogs running loose is not enforced and dogs bothered our children while playing.The bathrooms are not cleaned on a regular basis.The floors are dirty most of the time.People drive fast through the park and children are all around.We only camp here when we cannot get another place. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Like all COE campgrounds on Hartwell, sites are spacious and mostly level. Most are directly on waterfront. Few amenities, just the great outdoors at its finest! We camped here in a Motorhome.
Campground is huge! Large sites, with lots of room between sites. We had 50 amp back in near the lake. We were there on opening day (May 1st) with very few other campers. Park started to fill up for the weekend, but remained very quiet in the evenings. Campground hosts were very friendly and had local maps and knowledge. Beautiful area to visit and a great place to stay. I would give it a 10 if they had sewer hookups available at your site. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Roads into park and inside park are on the small side. Roads inside park are blacktop and sites are level with good gravel. Non-primitive sites have 20/30/50 amp power with water. Playground equipment in four places for kids. Lake here is very large due to Hartwell dam. Price per night was on Golden Age card. Park has very heavy trees every place. Park has two beachs for swimming. Keep an eye on road signs that take you into park. Good Sam book was all wrong. Site we had was over 200 feet long and very wide. Sites are set 45 degs. to road. One handicapped site # 29. No noise in park at night. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Not a very well kept or equipped campground. The road were hilly and very rutted and without 4wd it may have been difficult pulling into our site. Very basic facilities that really need upgrading. If your only interest is being outdoors with access to the lake then it's a great place. If you want a few more frills then this is definately not the right venue. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Older campground that could use a lot more work yet. Most sites are on side of a hill, all sites are rock and gravel. Part of the roads were asphalt ,and rest were rock and gravel, and need more work. Sites were close to level and sit in heavy stand of pine trees. WiFi was free but only works close to office (small linksys). Sat TV is a trick here due to the trees, but will work in places. Rest rooms, showers, and laundry were spotless and all new, also a long way from most sites. Rates were on Passport; park also is Good Sams. This park is OK for the smaller units, large units should not come here. We are 36 feet and could get in and out of site. Trees are everyplace and you could hit one. New owner is working to update this park and you can see changes. Lots of people come here to be in the woods and fish. Power and water were OK. Camp fires OK here. No noise here. Lake is down around 20 feet at this time due to no rain. It was not a bad place to spent some time in. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Old park. Tight Spaces. Not suitable for large (over 38') RVs. Bad "feel". We paid, did not like the park, and requested a refund within 10 minutes of arriving. Owner refused. We moved on. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I was told I would have a site where I could get Dish satelite and wifi at the site. This was not the case. There are only 4 or 5 sites where satelite could be gotten, and no wifi at my site, which was close to where the lady said the booster antenna was (inside a building). I asked why it wasnt outside, She said they didnt have a pole to put it on. The sites are very rough, and the roads leading to the sites are uphill and very rough. The owners are rather new and they were working on the campground and some of the buildings. Maybe they will improve some of the campground. This seems more like a "fish camp" then a family oriented vacation campground. I would not camp here again. After I stayed one night (after paying for 7) i asked if I could stay the second night and leave for I was dissatifed, but the answer was NO! This is a Passport America campground - is the reason for the $13.00 per day. I dont see how they could charge $26.00 for this kind of campground. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We didn't actually stay at this campground because we drove in and they took us to our site and it was awful. We had to use 4-wheel drive to get up road to site and there were so many trees that is was very hard to manuever with a 37' 5th wheel. The ruts were at least 12" deep along side the road and there wasn't anyway the trailer could have been leveled. It was like staying on the side of a hill! It was undoubtedly the worst campground we have been to yet. Don't be fooled by their website description as it is not at all like it appears. After some manuevering to get our rig out of the site, we left and stayed further down the road. It was definitely a dump in my opinion. Should be rated in the negatives.
