Plan to kayak the Edisto with “friends of Edisto “ on the 6th of April. We do cash r/t history of identity theft in 2000. Do you think we’ll be able to get a site? Without reservation?
Hi Welfle,
I’d click on the ‘Make A Reservation’ button to check availability at Colleton State Park for your April dates. If there are a lot of campsites available, then you should not have a problem with a walk-in (no reservation).
First time here and really impressed. It’s a small park but as neat and tidy as any park I’ve seen. The sites are generous, well maintained and generally requires very little leveling. The ranger is terrific and carry’s dog treats which is a hit for our dogs. The hosts offer to pick up garbage when they ride by. They’re just so friendly and really keep this place maintained to perfection. Just a lovely park next to the Edisto River. We don’t fish but I suspect the fishing is good. A Dollar General nearby but about 20 minutes from a supermarket. Also just a few minutes off 95. Highly recommend if you want a quiet getaway without all the whistles and bells and traffic found in most parks.
Thanks Wayne!
