Lake Greenwood State Park is the epitome of a nature preserve: vast unspoiled spaces, gentle…read morewinding trails, generous lake fronts and easy boating access. It's all here. And I love it. We have camped here twice, once in the fall and this time in late March. Both were unique in their own way with the fall trip taking the cake. On both trips the morning sun greeted us ablaze with colors only to be rivaled by its sunset as the long day closed upon us. Beautiful. Serene. The camping reservations are easy through the SC website and the prices very reasonable. Most sites have a view of the lake and several are right on it. We did notice this time (spring) that several locals booked their family vacation here during spring break. Sadly, several lugged all their crap from home with them: refrigerators, large grills, full-size kitchen ovens, awnings, boats, golf carts, bikes, dogs, and kids. The center of the campground looked like a hillbilly hoedown. People were kind and respectful, but damn, it's camping people! Overall, we like it here and we will return. Got the campfire just a smokin' on my "Give 'em a whirl" meter. Camp here (just leave your sh*t at home).

We took a slight detour on our way to Greenville SC to stop here. Incredibly happy we did. It was…read moreearly afternoon on a Thursday, and we immediately found a little cove where our two pups ( Senior Labrador Retrievers) could swim. No one else was around and the breeze coming off the water was refreshing and cooling. The bottom of the lake was mostly sand. It was clean, quiet and the boys had a blast! Perfect stop in a great place!

Dear Friends, I'm a…read morelover of staycations for many reasons. The most important is a change of scenery and a place close to home is necessary to review and renew. Let's face it, life can be super busy and having a moment to press pause, reflect, and rejuvenate is key. I spent three days an two nights at this site and it fantastic. The room is so well decorated and filled with the amenities of home. It trucks the brain and you forget that you're literally sleeping in a large tent. The tent is equipped with a real bed with all the things we love including a very comfortable mattresses. The tent also has chairs, a refrigerator, coffee maker, and an a/c and heating unit. My favorite part of the site is the restrooms and shower building. I was pleasantly surprised at how clean it is kept. While I was there, I was greeted by the Timberline staff several times cleaning the restrooms. Group Suggestions: I'd suggest booking a few of the tents and having a nice family reunion. I'd also bring bikes and fishing equipment. There is a dock next to the site and I'm sure it's a great place to fish. Since my stay, they now have someone who offers golf cart rentals. That would be great to use to go play disc golf or go to one of the beaches there. Solo Suggestions: This is a solo travelers dream because they offer a place to renew. I spent my days just watching nature, journaling, and reading. Please share your story, reel or photos with me when you venture out to @timberline glamping in Appling, GA. Wishing you much fun!

After walking around and scouting out other spots, could not really rule out any spot that I couldn't get in. The only thing bad about camping is the other people. No consideration for others wanting to take advantage of a relaxing weekend. Packing up and pulling out between 4:30-6:00am is beyond me. Anyways. Good place. Bath houses are okay, just bring your shower shoes. Bring your own fire wood too

We were able to find a nook to keep our distance from people but some people were just inconsiderate and frankly dumb. There was a fowl smell near the swimming area, I don't know what it was exactly. The water is a bit murky. They do have grills to access. You can rent campsites here. They have restrooms. The ice cream truck came through. They have a boat ramp, fishing spots, a frisbee golf course, hiking and horse riding trails and just a lot to do.

We had a very hard time getting our camper backed in due to the trees. We actually damaged the side of our travel trailer.

We were originally parked in a spot that was un-level. They were open to us moving to another open spot for our stay. I also had a camper leak the first night. Staff left me use tools to fix the problem while my husband was at work. Of course, he had all of our tools with him lol. Since moving spots eve thing has been great! They have a small store for buying drinks and chips. The have a place to wash clothes or sit and enjoy the camp fire. They have a playground for children. Quiet place and the neighbors have been friendly. Everything is about 30 minutes away so be prepared to drive to get to things. If you are looking for quiet and getting out into nature this is the spot for you. They have WiFi, picnic tables and fire pits/grills. Most spots are in shaded areas. Keeps the camper cool at the heat of the day.
