The park itself was very nice but there are very limited spaces for larger RVs. The sites are very unlevel and some of the roads are difficult to maneuver. The workers here are great.

This visit was our second two-week stay here. The staff is consistently kind and helpful. The utilities at our site worked without issue. It did require a little effort to get our rig level, but that's part of RV life.They don't have propane here but they do have it at one of the nearby truck stops and it's available at local Tractor Supply stores which we learned - thanks to campground staff - when the truck stop had a leak in their propane system the day we needed a fill up.We don't have any complaints about this park. Do we wish Thousand Trails would invest some money in upgrades? Yes. But, you know, we had access to the lake from a nearby boat launch and could anchor at the campground, the showers were hot and the bathhouses were warm in the winter, and the park staff was good about communicating. We appreciate all of that - thank you.

The campground was dated but in good shape, and the staff was super cool, checking on us periodically and keeping us in the loop with texts. They let us receive packages without hitting us with extra fees (just, you know, don't go crazy with that). Good spots for strolls and play, and even though the playground was on the smaller side, it did the trick for the little ones. Our kids had a blast shooting hoops with others on the basketball court. T-Mobile and Starlink internet held up well to zoom meetings and streaming. Heads up, though – the paved sites, including ours, were a bit wonky. Pack lots of leveling gear and be ready to take your sweet time getting things straight.Noteworthy details: Bring plenty of leveling blocks or wood pieces and take your time.

Our Thanksgiving week at Thousand Trails in FairPlay, SC, had its highlights, with amenities like mini-golf, a playground, and a clubhouse. However, the campground’s reality didn’t align with its online portrayal. Instead of the transient feel we expected, around 90% of the sites seemed permanently occupied, cluttered with unattended campers, sheds, and unregistered vehicles.Our assigned site, nestled in uneven woods, lacked upkeep, was barely wider than our RV, and had no room for a picnic table. Meanwhile, other sites boasted large decks, ample parking, fire pits, and level ground.Proximity to the bathhouse was convenient, but its lack of cleanliness, overrun by insects and spiders, was a disappointment. The staff, although generally friendly, provided minimal information at check-in, mainly a laundry list of rules.Overall, a 3/10 experience—we wouldn’t consider returning.Oh, I forgot to mention; If you intend to play putput, beware there are fire ants all of the course, and it is not maintained.

We really enjoyed our 2 weeks at this very quiet and scenic park. Many thanks to Donna for letting us find and pick our perfect spot on the hill. The trees in fall time are beautiful!

Decent camp ground but VERY tight spaces. So much so that even with a reservation we needed to go around on a golf cart to try and find a spot we can fit in. Rv spots are extremely rough and un even. As for the employees, they are awesome and helpful, zero complaints with staff. Very helpful and kind people.

I really want to give five stars but I can't. The sites are very uneven and almost busted a hydraulic jack. Saw the bathrooms, they are old, misding tiles, a bit dirty and hot water wasn't working. Laundry was good. Sites need to be cleaned of debris, rocks etc. Great staff!

Nice outdoorsy place, Lake is nice and campground needs work but a decent place to stay. The sites and roads need work. Men’s shower is closed by office, family shower in B only has two showers only one has hot water. The shower/restroom by lake we’re dirty and spiders/spider webs are all over inside the showers can’t even shower in them or have anything out.

I cannot in good conscience recommend anyone using the cabins. We stayed about one hour total time before checking out, and some of this time was cleaning before we decided we could not stay there. Considering we had a reservation a few weeks in advance, to find the cabin in such a filthy condition and after complaining to the manager and nothing was done to alleviate the situation, this is the fairest review we can offer.

SOOO Many people trash this place and say how awful it is....let me tell you right now they are wrong.Is it hilly as hell?-yes, bring boards like we did.Is the lake absolutely amazing to splash, kayak, and explore?- oh my gosh, YESSSS!!!! But catch it in season we caught it at the tail end and it was extremely low.Is the campground older?- you bet...BUT...they are working hard to update where they can. The pool is awesome! The game room has been renovated. The putt-putt and playground are well manicured/maintained.Would I rebook?- in a heartbeat. We are 30-45 minutes from amazing waterfalls, hikes and breweries. We've enjoyed the peace and quiet of the campgound(now that holiday campers are gone ?)....and seriously this may be a hidden gem!I also wanna thank the front office. We checked in Friday,A VERY BUSY HOLIDAY, and were assigned a site that we couldn't get in. We tried to pull thru, back in and even attempted a sketchy through another site. But our jacks could make it over the steep slope of the site. The office put us in another site and APPOLIGIZED, because it wasn't full hookup. We don't care, we have a toy hauler with massive tanks and will just use our honey pot(they offer a once a week dump for free if we'd like to use it!).All in all, if you want to be in the woods, in peace....book here ❤️.

Terrible cabin. Sour smell, floors were extremely dirty. Several weak spots in the floor. Beds were in terrible shape and extremely uncomfortable. The shower floor was weak also and made a mess with every use due to small size and powerful spray.

We just left here after 3 weeks. We loved our time there and will return again in the future. The staff was so nice & friendly. The park was clean & manicured. We had a bit of a dilemma & the staff was more then helpful!!! We had a strong T-MOBILE signal. The church group was a great bunch of people. We love the rustic charm & people!!Again, the staff was beyond wonderful!!

I've been here twice, and I will continue to come back. Our only issue is the upkeep of the rv sites. After a rv leaves, the site should be cleared of rocks and debris. The laundry room is ok, but it needs some cleaning. I'm not sure about bathrooms. We didn't use them. Good are the amenities and friendly staff.

We camped in this campground and had a wonderful time!! Everyone is so nice. The employees check on you to make sure that you’re having a good time and to make sure you don’t have any issues or complaints. I would recommend this campground and we will most certainly be back next year.
