Both hospitable and attentive to safety. Scouts had a blast on the course. Some played disk golf as well. Campsites were nice with access to running water and fire pits. Situated in a you pine stand. I highly recommend the venue. They are working hard to develop the place. Everything centers around "the hub" which offers a nice place to gather.

Awesome place owned and managed by awesome people. Time spent there has always been "well spent".read more

Driving to Hilton Head from Charlotte we needed a pit stop. This was out of the way and off the…read moremain highway but well worth the few extra minutes it took to get there. The park itself is really small, more of a neighborhood pocket park than a sprawling city green space. The playstructures were in great shape, there was a lovely pond with ducks and a small walking trail around the perimeter. Mature trees provide shade and there was even a lovely little gazebo for that extra dash of small-town, Americana charm. The kids played, we stretched our legs and everyone was ready for the road.

#HNY2018 Yahhh, I hiked Barnwell State Prk SC today with…read moresome like minded explorers!! We met promptly at 1pm and hiked the prk for 2 miles, the park ranger was very knowledgeable and led us on a wonderful trek. There are 3 ponds for boating or fishing, I wouldnt swim in lakes due to alligators and snakes... I would most def go back and use the facility for hiking, fishing, cabins, or camping. The park was clean and well kept, free entry but it is always kind to leave a donation! Oh almost forgort there is a natural spring fountain that you can drink from! Great way to start the N Year '18, this will be a Yrly trek for us!!

Quiet and beautiful escape. Cabins are appropriately appointed. Don't count on the tv service…read morethough. It's spotty. Good thing I didn't come here for the tv. It's a good place to decompress. I'll be back when it's warmer for sure.

Nice and clean. Love that it's so close to home. I haven't tried the food yet maybe next time.read more

On the south perimeter of the Lowcountry Regional Airport, this small park has some benches and the…read moreoriginal marker light from when this field was much smaller and a high-altitude picture (no satellites back then) of the vicinity. There is also a marker pointing out the early history of the area and some more recent activities. The marker reads on the front, "Anderson Field. This airfield, the first in Colleton County, was built and dedicated in 1933 on 60 acres leased to the town of Walterboro by the estate of C. C. Anderson, for whom it was named. By 1937 the town purchased the field and its 3 unpaved landing strips. Local, state, and federal sources combined to fund a large hangar and paved runways by 1941. The U.S. Army Air Corps leased the field from the town in early 1942 and purchased an additional 3,712 acres to create a new Walterboro Army Air Field." On the reverse, "Walterboro Army Air Field. The Walterboro Army Air Field, opened in August 1942, was a sub-base of the Columbia Army Air Base and the largest sub-base in the 3rd Air Force. It served as a final training base for pilots prior to overseas duty and housed a military population of as many as 6,000 as well as hundreds of German POWs. When the base closed after the war the field was deeded back to Walterboro and Colleton County. Erected by the Walterboro/Colleton County Airport Commission & the Colleton County Historical and Preservation Society, 1997." The Tuskeegee Airman Memorial is separate and nearby.

My husband has been doing some remodeling at home and he's injured himself in the process. This…read morecampground is not too far from our home. We figured a nice get-away will keep him from continuing his projects and allow him time to heal. This is a beautiful, but small campground with a creek running nearby. Despite what others have said, we have not seen any gators. ( At home we have gators living down the street.). This has been a beautiful respite for us, getting away from the decisions and craziness, but not being far from home. The Park Ranger is a very kind and friendly man. He will help you with any questions or issues you may have, with his gorgeous smile on his face. We will be back again gladly, anytime.

We came to Colleton State Park as Snowbirders from northern NY. We arrived on November 16th and…read morewill be here until December 31. We couldn't ask for a nicer or better run campground. The camp host, David, and his wife, Misty, are just amazing. The Rangers are very helpful as well. The campground is right on the Edisto River. You can rent canoes directly across the river or bring your own. It's a wonderful flat water canoe or kayak paddle. The sites here are very nice with a fair amount of space between them. The bathrooms are fairly old, but always immaculate. The showers are incredible for a campground. The water is always as hot as you want, and it can be run for as long as you like. I don't think anyone could ever go wrong staying here. Of course, I don't know what it's like in the Summer - probably a lot more crowded with families. Right now it's incredibly peaceful.

We've been there twice and had an excellent time both trips. Our first year we didn't connect but…read morethat was our fault. The second year both my son and I connected. It was a great trip. Friendly people, great guides, and great food. We feel like we are part of the family. We are going back for our 3 year and there are others that have been going for over 15 years.

I sat out at the park for about an hour just reflecting and meditating on life and it was a very peaceful moment. There were a few people that came out, but they tended to their business just as I tended to mine. Love the new changes!! Proud is an understatement.
