Old Greenville has become our favorite campground destination. The campground is easily accessible from US67 and constantly monitored by the COE. Well kept and fully functional sites allow us to enjoy every moment there. Paved bike and walking trails are scattered throughout the campground and enjoyed by all ages.

Such a fantastic campground. It is clean and quiet. The spots are far apart and all are full hookups. The campground is flat, so easy to bike and walk. There are 2 trails right off the campground. It has a cemetery that is amazing and the history of the town is so interesting.

grounds were very well kept & the shower house was also one of the cleanliest we ever used. That was important since our water heater was not working.

This was our first of hopefully many camping trips to Old Greenville. The campground was wonderful. The bicycle trails are both beautiful and challenging at times. The entire family loved the entire experience. 5 stars. We will definitely be back.

If you are looking for privacy in a campsite, look elsewhere. Sites are not wooded or secluded. Otherwise, every campsite has electric, water, and sewer which is awesome.
