Very scenic park on Lake Greenwood. Many sites have nice view of lake. Minimal activity for the kids (one trail, several play sets). We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The campground was clean and the staff straitens up each site after it has been used. The restrooms were decent, but nothing to brag about. There are 2 main loops in the camping area, I stayed on loop 2 where every site you can at least see the water. We were able to walk down to the water and get in, but its just a lake and the area we were at wasn't really meant for swimming (no lifeguards at all) the lake is huge and there are a lot of boats. The wildlife is prevalent. Some trails, there is a church service on Sundays. Lots of ticks, so be on the lookout. Lots of friendly people. There is Wi-Fi available at the main office that I did take advantage of. I would recommend this place based on the price and the beauty of the lake. Campsites were not that huge, but OK. I am not from the area, so I will most likely not be back. I was just testing out our new popup camper. There are playgrounds at the park that were OK, you can fish as well. Very relaxing place to camp. Have fun! We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

Great state park, quiet, park rangers keep it that way. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We thoroughly enjoyed a five night stay at this park. My husband had a good time fishing just a few feet from our camp site, and we saw deer and other wildlife on our evening strolls. A visit to the nearby Ninety Six National Historic Monument was a worthwhile side trip. We spent a lovely Sunday afternoon walking on their interpretative loop and then along one of their primitive trails. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a beautiful park. The campsite we stayed on was a bit tricky to get into, but with the help of a good neighbor, we got in there. All the park staff were helpful and informative. There was plenty to do with the kids such as hiking, biking, fishing, swimming, and there was a playground on the other side of the park. We will definitely go back again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The site we stayed on was a bit hard to level out the camper, but it was quiet and one site over from being lakefront. Our son had a ball fishing and roasting marshmallows in the provided firepit, but the playground is located on the other side of the park so we didn't get over there. (It rained.) The park rangers were friendly, and the sites were plenty shady. We had trouble weaving through trees to get to the site, having to back up and go forward several times, but the other campers had seen it all week and were eager to lend a hand. We will definitely return because it's as close to roughing it as it gets in a camper. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We camped there in a motor home. Maneuvering beyond a few sites near the entrance was very difficult with a 40 foot motor home and the first site they assigned us was not level enough. There was no sewer connections and the dump site was on a circle that the motor home would not have been able to get to. But its a very busy and pretty camp ground. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Our second time here. We enjoy the lake and the peaceful mid-week off-season! Lots of roads to walk. We'd definitely come back here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is my second time camping here. Both experiences were positive. Supplies available
in the town of Ninety Six. The park rangers were helpful. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very nice Carolina park on Lake Greenwood. 914 acre park, lots of room for walking and biking. Good views of the lake from most sites. We camped here in a camper.
