Greenville is our favorite campground! It's well maintained and beautiful. Great biking and walking trails. Full hookups at each site. It really is the perfect campground. I truly wish the COE would reconsider shortening the camping season next year. They're closing the campground during our favorite camping time. What a shame. We're possibly going farther south so we can enjoy camping in March and November. Bad call guys!

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.

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.
