Palmetto Cove began as an Airstream only park back in the 70's which later was opened to all brands. It is arranged in 6 rows of side by side sites and can accommodate most RV's, from big rigs to Bambis. There are 148 full hook ups, 90 of which include 50 amp service. Dry camping is allowed only when all the numbered sites are full. The main loop drive is paved.

This is a membership park open to the public that is operated, maintained and run by unpaid volunteers. Volunteer workers camp free while working. The sites are mostly level, all grass but little shade. It is open from March 1 each year to November 15. There is WiFi but no cable.

Individual reservations are not needed, but groups must call for and submit a written reservation form for approval since the park provides, at no extra charge, full kitchen and dining hall facilities and a large picnic shelter with a large fireplace which must be reserved for group use. There is also an adjoining lounge for relaxing, games and reading. Access to the South Saluda River is available, via a short hike, for sunning, fishing or swimming at your own risk.
