The gnats were horrible. The site was good and the hosts were very nice and helpful.

Stayed 2 nights in a tent and van. Spring break. Had to switch sites on second night because everything already reserved. Very nice campground right on the intercoastal waterway. Hosts were friendly and helpful. They came around to every campsite and shared a severe weather warning. Shower area and bathrooms were old but clean. Will stay here again if ever in the area.

The boat ramp associated with the site is a great amenity. And the trails emanating directly from the campground are nice, too.

Small quiet campground with electric and water on the Intercoastal Waterway. Each site has a cement pad with some shade trees in an open setting. Good spacing between sites, but open. If you want more privacy pick a site in back along the treeline
T W Graham’s has good food and a funky interior.

I really enjoyed this campground. Clean, quiet, small, safe and a beautiful area. It was just me and my dog in our small tear drop camper. I did a lot of hiking and biking in the Palmetto Trail, which starts right at the campground. I took day trips to McClellanville, Charleston and Edisto. The only thing I would change would be my campsite. There was no shade except for tree that set way behind my camper. Not a huge big deal this time, as the temps were very moderate, but I’d prefer a more shaded site.

Beautiful spot with well spaced sites. Gnats were bad though. The only thing that really bothered me is that two of the 11 spaces were empty due to no shows.
