We love the spacious sites at Buck Hall, the view of the ICW and marsh, the quiet atmosphere and incredible view of the stars at night.

A great place to lie back and relax. Overdue for renovations, the bathhouse in particular is in dire need of improvements. But if you want a campground with well spaced campsites in the middle nature this is it.

Great campsite, nice area and water nearby. We saw a dolphin! Only mark down would be for the aging bathroom facilities, but also it says they will be renovating them soon. We would stay here again when we come back to the Charleston area.

We have camped here several times in a tent and now have a camper so we could camp on an RV site. The location is great for relaxing and enjoying nature/family time. There is. Fantastic view!

Really nice campground. Only real complaint on this visit there is the shower water was barely lukewarm at best, suspect maybe the water heater needs some repairs.

We like this small campground along the waterway. It’s a nice spot. The campground and day use area are in need of an overhaul, though.

Great little campground, plenty of space between sites. We stayed there 3 nights. We could tell that it had rained prior to our arrival, due to the approximate 10x10 mud on the door side of our camper. I had to place a tarp on the mud, just so we.could.moove around. We stayed at site #3. I would go there again but in site #5 or #13
