Buck Hall is a great place to camp in the winter time. We love the solitude and quiet. We toured Hampton Plantation State Historic Site on our most recent camping trip. It's not far from Buck Hall. We ate at T.W. Graham's in McClellanville and enjoyed the local seafood immensely. Buck Hall is only 78 mi from our home, so it's not far for us to travel for an almost staycation getaway.

Although there are improvements needed in some areas such as the bath house, overall the campground is wonderful. We stayed from Dec. 5-9 at site #10 mostly level. Great weather. Only had to raise the front one block.
With only 14 sites it is a quiet campground. Spaces are large and relatively private. Straight drive. HW 17 to McClellenville and Georgetown. A must see is the Hampton Rice Plantation, which is a state park. We would return.

This place is a diamond in the rough. It is obvious that it is run by the government and not a private company because a private company would invest in needed improvements and expansion. Only 14 RV spots with room to double or triple this number on the same footprint without crowding plus ample acreage to expand this facility. The boat landing parking lot is too small and is full of potholes and the bath house is obsolete . Hopefully a renovation is in the future.

Camp hosts were friendly and efficient. Sunrise over the waterway was gorgeous. Enjoyed 2 quick trips into McClellanville, one for just off the boat fresh shrimp and another for lunch at TW Grahams. Hike at least 2 mi out on the Palmetto Trail for a spectacular vista! And there was hot water for the shower.
