We volunteered here for 3 months, and despite the water this is the best campground we seen since we left. We have been in 7 other camp grounds. There is a reverse osmosis system at the fire station for good drinking water. We arrived Thanksgiving and spent the winter and found the weather to be very enjoyable. The beach is amazing! So many shells, so little time! The rangers and maintenance crew were friendly and helpful. We would definitely camp here again! We camped here in a Motorhome.

Beautiful State Park and campground! We camped on site #28 with views of the marsh and the ocean. Nice wide sites with plenty of room and all are fairly level. In close proximity are restaurants and grocery store (we love the Pig!). Nature walks and bike trails are great and easily accessible. Only negative, as previous reviewer said, is the water. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The staff was friendly and helpful. The beach is fabulous. My favorite sites are at the north end of the beach campground. They are open and sunny, which is a good thing in December, with great beach access. The south end of the beach campground and especially the Live Oaks section are more heavily wooded to the point that getting around can be tricky. The water is foul. I found it undrinkable and wasn't even that thrilled washing with it. That is with a filter too. The dump station is quite a distance from the beach campground, including around a mile on a state highway. There's not much around as far as shopping and services go. The grocery store right across the street has the basics but otherwise isn't very impressive. There was a decent hardware store nearby. The nearest laundromat was a 30 minute drive and all of the driers were out of order. The only major plus was the beach but that's probably not enough to get me to come back. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Great Park! We had our 40' motorhome and we did brush a few palm tree branches getting in and out. The park was beautiful and the beach was amazing. The Piggly Wiggly at the entrance is worth a visit if only to see how much stuff can a little grocery store carry. I had a great time and would definitely return. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We camped in the Live Oaks section of the campground. We didn't know the two campground were so far from each other. Our site was huge, but covered with bugs, ticks, spiders and mosquitoes. We were unable to be outside for more than five minutes at a time. It would have been nice to know in advance that we were a mile from the beach. Our golf cart was useless. The bathrooms at this site were brand new but without a/c. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We stayed in the beach campground, and had a wonderful site with the ocean out our back window. Restrooms are clean. The water has an unpleasant taste so we would advise you take drinking water. Only other problem we found was the location of the dump station. We have a 36 foot 5th wheel and there is a pretty sharp turn to get back on the highway after you dump. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Edisto Beach State Park – Edisto Beach, South Carolina -$23 plus tax and fees – site 23 Beach Campground – water and electricity. This campground has two sections one is in the woods where the sites are pretty, private and huge. Great walk in tent sites here! It is warmer in this section but not bad. The other is on the beach. Some of the beach sites are in a field and others are among the palm trees one dune away from the beach. Not as private as the other section. It is very relaxing here with a nice breeze blowing most of the day. The showers are hot! There are bike trails that go to the next campground as well as to the interpretive center, boat dock, forest trail and to the Spanish Mount. The trails are not paved but they are hard pressed. They go through beautiful palm trees and over bridges. The Spanish Mount Trail is interesting ending with a Mount that used to be over a half an acre wide and 20 feet high of crushed oyster and clam shells where they think the Indians used to have get together and celebrations. We really enjoyed the bike trails here. There is also a Piggly Wiggly, Package Store, Subway, Restaurant, Gas Station and State Beach across the street from the Beach Campground in walking distance. Campers in the beach section must keep their lights blocked from the beach at night so that the turtles will come out and lay their eggs. Bring extra drinking water because the water has a salty taste. Nice campground! We camped here in a Motorhome.

Edisto in winter is fun--if, like us you live near enough to watch the weather for "nice, long weekends". Crowds and prices are low & the beach wide and warm. Edisto Beach State Park is great--nice, wide campsites, majestic live oaks, beach w/ pier--who needs cable of wi-fi?? Walk to GOOD restaurants & retail. Will always return & you will too. We camped here in a Motorhome.

My family has been coming to Edisto Beach for over 15 years but, unfortunately the family has outgrown the house so we always have to come up with a creative alternative. This year we broke down and bought a camper, cancelled our reservations at the resort, and were lucky enough to find a site in the Live Oak section. We were worried that it wouldn't be nice since it was so far back from the beach and we couldn't have been more wrong. Our site was large and private, just the right distance from the bathrooms and trash can, and wonderfully shaded for the middle of the summer. We ended up spending more time at the campsite than the house and enjoyed one of the most relaxing vacations in a long time. The bathroom was clean, modern and very large. We did see one snake slither from our site and hundreds of giant spiders and webs on the hike to the Indian Mound. The interpretive center was very nice and we were free to go visit the front beach wheneer we wanted to. The only reason I can't give it a 10 is one night the couple across from us got into a loud domestic and were throwing stuff and me and and another camper went to the ranger station and called all the numbers posted and couldn't find anyone or get a response. It settled down so we didn't call 911 and they left the next morning. Other then that it was the perfect trip. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

It's been over 15 years since I last camped at Edisto and I'm so pleased that not much has changed. My favorite thing about Edisto is that there is nothing to do there but go to the beach. The campground is nice and quiet and most sites are shaded. It was a short walk to the beach, which was pretty un-crowed. I used the showers, but not the restrooms. The showers had nice tile and were very clean. The only negative of the whole trip were the racoons. Those guys are smart, fast and very messy. Next time we will bring a trash can with a secure locking lid. We had several racoons come up within a few feet of us. But that's part of camping and technically, we are in their space. Overall it was a very relaxing weekend and I'm already planning the next trip. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We have camped here for many years,we love the habitat and the fishing. We were very disappointed this past time because we were not allowed to fish off the dock. Other than that the stay is always very relaxing. We camped here in a Tent.

The Beach Campground section is close to the ocean. Can be extremely windy. The sites near the entrance have large dunes as a buffer from the wind. The sites are large but there are some low hanging trees to navigate. Dump station is not located in the campground. It can be crowded with very little room to wait in line without being on the main road. We ended up dumping at a Flying J. Overall a nice place, but found other SC state parks on the ocean we like better. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Overall a good experience. Most sites are not crowded. Showers and restrooms were clean. We were in the Beach Side campground. Watch for stray cats. Will stay again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Well run and maintained state park. Don't feel crowded on sites. Can walk to grocery store just across road to entrance for food and supplies. Plan to visit there again soon. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed in the "Live Oak" area of the campground, not in the oceanside sites. I expected to be eaten alive by mosquitos, but as long as we kept the "Deep Woods Off" applied, we experienced only a slight problem with bug bites. Don't bother with anything less than maximum strength, though; we ran out of "Deep Woods Off" on the second day and tried some of the "Skintastic" repellent, but that did absolutely nothing to stop the little vampire wannabes; we ended up buying some more of the napalm-strength stuff. Aside from the slight bug problem, the camp- ground is wonderful. The sites in the "Live Oak" area are big, nicely spaced, and have enough undergrowth between them to provide a good deal of privacy. The beachside area is a little more crowded. The cavernous bathhouses were bright and spacious on the "Live Oak" side, a little less so on the beach. Either area, though, is beautiful. Visit the website and you get a little idea of the natural aesthetics of the state park. Several trails are available. Don't go on foot. The mosquitos rise from the pine needles in a low, black cloud and make any walk uncomfortable. A bike is the best way to experience the trails without the bugs (just keep moving, avoid eye contact). We saw many marsh birds, crabs, dolphins, a sting-ray, a stray cat, and one lost mole. Palm trees, live oaks, and spanish moss everywhere; beautiful, beautiful place. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is one of our favorite parks. We've stayed there twice and are returning next May for a 3rd time. We like the sites that face the marsh, affording great sunsets and an ever-changing "cast" of birds. The beach is good for walking and swimming. There is a series of bike trails that criss-cross the island, which makes for good riding. There is a Ranger Program that we found both interesting and informative. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Nice sites overall, but some really tight turns. Playground equipment is pathetic and rusty and downright unsafe. Otherwise, would go back, as nice beace and nice campground. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This campground has 2 parts - a location directly on the beach, as well as another location about a mile down the road. The beach location can be very windy - tenters beware! The location inland is very shaded, very private sites, and has a brand new bath house. It's a short bike ride through the marshes to the beach. We witnessed turtles hatching during a ranger-led program one night. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

Since many people love this place, I am going to get into to trouble for saying this, but I wasn’t too impressed. The campground fee was over $27 per night which included tax and a reservation fee. That is quite a lot for just water and electric in March. The dump station is several miles outside the campground down the main highway. Not a place to be towing a blue tote tank. The winter accumulation of trash, both natural and man-made, had not been picked up. The showers in the bath house needed a good paint job. The entrance road was too narrow for medium to large RVs. In fact, I chickened out half way through and switched over to the exit road, which had me going the wrong way on a one-way road. Once we made it to the loop at the far end of the campground, we found many large sites with the beach just over the dunes. In an effort to keep people off the dunes, some real ugly fence and rope have been erected. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This state park is our favorite place to camp. There is a front main campground and a secondary campground just up the road and not connected to the beach area. If is commonly referred to as the over flow area. It is shady and bugs are a bit worse there. Also almost no chance satilite with work there due to trees. Also the roadway in areas is very tight. The front park sites are great and there are now 30 sites that allow reservation (30-60). I actually liked it bettet without reservations. Slow paced retreat. If you don't get a reservation arrive very early or at night before gates open to get a good site. You will be glad you did. We have stayed here 20 or more times in the last five years. Always love it. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

One of our favorite places. We stayed two nights in Feb. I would think that during warmer weather bugs could be a problem since this place is surrounded by marshland. Maybe we will find out since we might go back in Sept. One other problem is they do not take reservations. You might want to call first like we did when we where on 95 and make sure they have a site before you drive the 50 miles to the island We camped here in a Motorhome.

We had a great time. Very nice location. The gnats were bad at times. The showers did not drain very well. Very easy access to beach and shade trees are nice. We would go again. We camped here in a camper.
