Santee Lakes KOA is situated on the scenic north shore of Lake Marion, South Carolina's largest lake. The campground offers over 120 Pull-Thru RV sites, surrounded by majestic oaks draped in Spanish moss, tall pines, and tropical palmettos. You can relax by the lakefront and enjoy picturesque sunsets over the water, or choose a Lakefront RV site for a stunning view. We also offer brand-new Premium cottages (linens included), Standard cottages, and Duplex cottages for larger groups.
Conveniently located off I-95, the campground is approximately 100 miles from both the North Carolina and Georgia state lines, and just a 75-minute drive from Columbia and Charleston, key tourism destinations in South Carolina. This makes it an ideal stop for travelers heading south or north.
In addition to our beautiful setting, you're only minutes away from restaurants, shops, several championship golf courses, and excellent fishing and outdoor recreation opportunities. You can enjoy swimming in the lake or pool, try your luck at fishing, and gather with other campers around the community fire pit. Engage in sports and yard games with family and friends, or simply relax on the beach and soak in the natural beauty. Plus, your pet will love exercising at KampK9! Due to the rural nature of our location, there is no cable provider in the area; therefore, we cannot provide cable to our campers. We do provide WiFi. Pool: May 1st-October 31st. Max pull thru: 85 feet. Please call for reservations for sites over 65 feet.
