Great campground! The camp host that is there during the fall months is amazing, if you chat with him he will happily provide you with all kinds of neat information about the area. The campground is scheduled for a major face lift, as of September the job has been submitted for bids, expected to begin sometime around the first of the year (2026).

So this is a multi-use recreation area focused on camping, boating, hiking and biking. The camping area appears to be fairly limited but there are bathroom facilities and parking. The bathrooms are minimally maintained and I would certainly recommend shower shoes. Parking is primarily centered around day users for the hiking trails (the loop is roughly 11 miles) which can also be used by mountain bikers. It's mostly single track and some areas of the trail are heavily rooted so keep in mind that all users need to cooperate and cyclists may need to dismount often when encountering hiking groups. The boat launch has a good number of parking spots and accommodates more than one boat at a time.

This review is for the of the Awendaw Passage leg of Palmetto Trail. Stunning views. Word of caution: be very careful on the first bit of boardwalk by the parking lot when it’s wet. It’s deceivingly slippery. If you’re on a bike, I’d probably skip that part and head around the corner to where the dirt trail starts back up the entrance an eighth mile or so.
