Greenville is one of our favorite places to camp. It’s just a nice campground with full hookups and the price is right especially if you have the America the Beautiful pass. The sites are very spacious and level. There are trails that you can either walk or ride your bike. It’s a great place for families.

We had a great time. Campground was crowded, but very clean. This is a very good place to camp.

The campground is very nice and well kept up. The bike trails are nice and an easy ride or walk. If you are into history there is a lot of information on the trails about the original town of Greenville, the Trail of Tears and Civil War skirmishes in the area. The only drawback we had was our camp site #48 had over 2 inches of water across the concrete pad after each rain. No other camp sites had this much water after it rained. If the drainage is fixed on this site, it will be very nice.

Quiet campground with level sites. Bike trail is great. Downside is cell service is terrible. Better have starlink if you want to watch TV or use internet

Despite the wind, storms, and hail damage, always a great time with great camp hosts and neighbor campers. Planning on returning in the fall.

Greenville is almost always a win and never disappoints. My only two beef’s I have with this trip were that the dumpsters were mounded up for several days. Also the host in the little yellow dodge Dakota would patrol the lot and constantly rev his engine and cause noise with his exhaust. He also would drive in the grass to change out the post tickets rather than just get out and do it. Come on man!! But honestly, this campground is the GOAT!

Very nice campground with clean restrooms. My only complaint was it was a noisy campground. Quiet time is 10pm but there were children screeming & playing, cars honking their horns, people talking loudly, car alarms going off, and the smell of skunks wafting thru my tent? lol

For these reasons, customers should consider an alternate date or location in the event a closure is necessary. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. |
