James Island County Park

As everyone else has said - this is a great campground in a great area! The staff is super helpful and the facilities are all great. We have been living in Charleston for the past 10 years or so and after selling our house found ourselves at this campground three different times in the past 2 months! I'll tell you a little more abou... more

Very nice park. Campsites are partially wooded and not paved. Well taking care of with full hookups. Each site has a picnic table & fire ring. Most sites are back-ins but some are pull-through. Lots of games around the campsite and lots of kids playing and biking around. Very nice water park is right across the campsite (walking distan... more

Holy Moly! Getting here is a big rig nightmare! Charleston roads are chock full of big overhanging trees. We heard one ding after another hitting who knows what, and dodging was impossible especially on the two-lane roads. Once in the park, there are still lots of trees, not necessarily over the road, but making it tight to get into so... more

This park is huge, has lots of trails and activities and plenty of things to do like disc golf, corn hole etc. I would imagine people with kids would like this place because of the climbing wall, huge playgrounds and splash park. Dog lovers will enjoy the HUGE off leash dog park complete with doggie swimming beach. The FHU sites are ... more

We loved it here. Our site was pretty open but we enjoyed watching all the cars & RVs come and go. It wasn’t very private. We booked only 5 months out so we were grateful to get any reservation. Biked loads! Great trails. Lots to see. Wifi wasn’t available unless we walked to the bathhouse. There, it was great & fast. Had a go... more

This park sets the standard for County Parks. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would recommend it to anyone who wants a taste of what Charleston has to offer. At times, we didn't even want to leave the park! If you have a paddle board, bring it. If you have a bike, bring it! Awesome trails, and a nice lake to leisurely explore. ... more

This was a great spot to stay for visiting both the city and the plantations. We visited a couple of plantations and also spent a day in the city. The campground sites are dirt and ours was pretty muddy from some recent rains. The website stated they had a laundry facility, which made us pretty excited since most state/county parks do ... more

We have stayed here twice and enjoyed it very much. The sites and bathhouses are clean and everything is well-kept. What really sets this campground apart is that it's in a county park which has a water park, massive dog park, hiking/biking trails, climbing wall, & shuttles to the beach & Charleston. Our second visit was on New Ye... more

Tree limb clearance issues on the roads leading to the county park had us cancel our reservations. The tallest RV we notices within the campground was 12’2” (I asked the owners), so RVs that are around that height should ideally not have an issued navigating the roads to the county park and within the campground. Our challenge is that ... more

Camped there Saturday night on a weekend trip away from the city. Drove with our city car and chose to camp at the Primitive Tent Site since we didn't need much more than a spot for the Tent and a fire ring. The park has 2 camping areas: full RV sites and a small field for tents only. The field is separated from the RV camp and has a s... more
