Campground was very clean and quiet. Bathrooms were kept very clean. Only complaint is the bathhouse is not heated and we were there when the temps were in the 30s so it was quite cold. The water was nice and hot though! Will definitely come back.

Buck Hall is a hidden gem! Beautiful campground, with sites set far apart and a clean, functional bath house. The hosts at the time we were there, Don and Diana, were fabulous. Easy drive to Charleston or up to historic Georgetown. Also, don't forget to visit the wonderful staff at the McClellanville Library just a few miles away!!!

This was our 2nd visit to Buck Hall and both visits were excellent. The weather was cold and there was some ice but it melted quickly in the morning. There was a great sunrise. We nice, quiet and clean camping area.

Ckean and very nicely spaced sites. Camp hosts are nice as well. 30 miles from Charlston wasn't a bad drive. Must see in the area is Boone Plantation. We would return to this park.

Buck hall is rather "high end" as Federal national forest (not national park) campgrounds go. It is rather small, as most are; 14 site. The sites are very close together and there is absolutely no "screening" between sites. It's a camping parking lot. It can accomodate tents to the huge busses. But there is water and electricity at each site, except the tents only" sites! The toilet/shower building is very basic and in good repair though clearly not new and well worn. Many Federal national forest campgrounds - especially those west of the Mississippi - have a central water spigot - which is sometimes a hand pump - and a pit toilet. Some of the "dispersed" sites have a fire ring and that's it. They are walk in from more than than the 10 feet away asphalt parking pad. Those are the ones we favor. So why camp her? Access: It is on the edge of the national forest, near the wonderful city of Charleston, the splendid Brookgreen Gardens and it's on the Intracoastal waterway. And with a Senior Pass, it's cheap.
