Huntington Beach State Park Campground

Most sites are spacious, level and well maintained. Very close to beach access and the combination of paved trails and opportunity to see wildlife set this start park apart from many others.

Pros: Easy to navigate A place to park your camper while you check in at visitors center Good water Level sites Easy access to the beach and grocery shopping Great nature center with small touch tank and interactive activities Really close to Brookgreen gardens ( beautiful sculptures and botanical garden and the admission is good for a week!)

Cons No see ems- they definitely came through the mess on our screens so we had to close windows and run the air Grumpy camp hosts

If you are needing to work while at Huntington Beach State Park - go somewhere else! The wifi is the worst I’ve ever encountered.  We usually stay on the south side.  We use a Mifi and still terrible!  The sad thing is a tower is less than a mile away! They seriously need to upgrade their equipment!  We live in a world that people need consistent internet service to continue to work!  This will be the reason we won’t go back.

Plus the pricing tripled from 60.00 a night to over 100.00 a night in 2023.  The wifi is the most annoying thing for me!

The wife, dog and I all stayed here and it was fantastic. Bathrooms were clean and campground was well kept. One of our new favorite campgrounds. Will definitely be staying again next time we are looking for a beach trip.

This was an amazing campground. Clean, safe, and great outdoor family fun. Great programs through the Ranger's station. Can't say enough about this campground!

We had a great experience at Huntington Beach State Park. We stayed in the south campground with full hookups and it was a game changer! No honey pot trips to the dump station made for an extraordinary camping trip at the beach! Beautiful campground with a short easy walk to the beach. We will definitely return.

This campground lies within a State Park and comes with the usual rules for such facilities. It’s very clean, has multiple well-kept bathhouses close to all sites, and it offers great level sites with lots of privacy, all very close to the beautiful Huntington Beach.

Well, even though I was there in the middle of December, I felt like I was on summer vacation at this state park. The campground is quite beautiful, with the campsites pretty well immersed in vegetation. There's a lot of diversity among sites, so I'm sure people have favorites. The atmosphere is festive but relaxed, with lots of families and groups of friends. I didn't even get to find half the cool places to explore, but there are marsh boardwalks, sandy beaches with sea turtles, a full-on gift shop, a nature center with aquariums and presentations, and a crazy estate that you can tour. It also happens to be quite expensive to camp there, so check the rates. Word to the wise - apparently it is so popular in the summertime that you need to make reservations a year in advance.

This campground is spectacular. If you’re looking for a beach getaway, come here. Many of the sites are quite large (in comparison to the mega parks of myrtle beach) and shaded by trees. The campground does have wi-fi, however it’s not reliable throughout the park. By one bathhouse, they have put tables with outlets and I noticed a wifi router on the top of that bathhouse, so that much be a great place for reception. Speaking of bath houses, they were spectacular by the standards of state parks I’m used to. The paths to the beach are beautiful and rustic, though a little bit of a trek. The scenery is so lovely that I didn’t even mind, but I can see it getting old with little ones over the span of a week. The park itself offers many things to do, including trails, birdwatching, the historic Atalaya home (additional fee), and a playground. If that isn’t enough, across the street is Brookgreen Gardens, a stunning sculpture garden with a small zoo.

This park is one of my favorites. It’s beautiful and very clean. There is also a lot to do!

Clean, quiet & exactly what we were looking for!

Absolutely stunning park! The amount of bird/wildlife watching here is unbelievable! The north rv/tent loop is very spacious with an abundance of grass and trees, all sites have power & water but only a few dozen with sewer. The south rv straight has full hook ups and concrete pads but are not as spacious as the north loop. Bath houses are clean and have been recently updated with fresh tile and fixtures. The beach itself is large and covered with pristine white sand, all beach access paths are well maintained and pretty in there own right. Highly recommend a visit to this park!!! Super convenient to everything but peacefully tucked away for your enjoyment. 🌅

We’ve camped here for about 2 weeks annually since 2015. It’s fairly well run, has decent restrooms, and a secluded tent area. All RV sites have 30-50 amp & water. The South Campground was added a few years back & has full hook-ups just behind the beach dunes. There’s lots to do in the area. Campsite prices have skyrocketed in the last few years.

Nice campground with big sites.Beach is great with plenty of room to pick your own spot.Fishing,hiking,swimming it's here.

Beautiful state park with access to Atalaya castle and Brookegreen gardens, all in walking distance. Art festivals are held here too! Bike trails give you access to Pawleys Island, Litchfield, and the shops along the way. The brackish water bridge uses a natural gate to change with tides and will typically be packed with alligators. Take the 1/2 mile walk to the jetty and do some fishing. The further you get from the parking area the better the shark teeth and fishing get. The camp store has some minimal items but make sure to bring meat tenderizer for the occasional jelly fish sting. The trails to the beach from the last 2 hike in tent sights are great, if you go on a full moon you may find some turtles- NO Flashlights! Been here numerous times and it is always less crowded than Myrtle Beach State park. Make sure to check out the aquatic nature center too!

We had an amazing time at Huntington Beach. Campsites are large (although not all are shaded). The beach is pristine and gorgeous. I loved hearing the waves as I was falling asleep. Try to get a site on the outside of the loop where there are more trees, and more privacy.The bath houses were adequate and easily accessible. The ghost tour at Atalaya is a must! Huntington Beach is close to Brookgreen Gardens, which we’ve heard is beautiful, but didn’t end up going there. It’s also close to Myrtle Beach, restaurants, shopping, etc. we will absolutely return!

This was our first time taking the pop-up to the beach. The campground was clean, quiet, and a quick walk to a beautiful beach.

Very clean, organized campground. Our spot was a walk in. Great spot. Every site had a bear box for food. That's a treat , no walking food back to vehicle. Clean Clean restrooms and good showers. Reasonably priced. But fills up fast.

This is a terrific state park. Bathrooms and showers are plentiful and very clean. We stayed in Site 112. A nice short walk from the beach!

The park is less than 10 minutes drive to Murrells Inlet and Marsh Walk. Can’t wait to stay here again!

Listen to the waves on the beach from your campsite. Easy walk to beach. Gets a little wet when it rains

I would live here! Big sites, ocean right down these really cool paths. I'm going to try and come back. Great place!

My most fond memories o camping were here!!   So

Much to do!!  My kids loved exploring where the Huntington’s lived!  There are also botanical gardens nearby.  The only thing is Inthink you have to reserve your spot more than a year in advance now!!

Spent 2 nights here in our sprinter van with our pup in February. Nice, quiet and friendly campground. Loved all the trails within walking distance & the trail access to the beach. It was cold for February but no snow:) Used the bathroom & shower and they were very clean. Even saw dolphins from the beach! @vantrailsbeer

We stayed here for 3 nights. Our site, 19, backed to picnic shelter so avoid it. One large group had a party in there one night and pick up trucks were literally in our fire ring area. But there are great hiking trails from the campground that go near tidal ponds and good birding. We were here in mid March. Well spaced sites. Lots of noisy dogs. I might add but that seems the case everywhere now. Not sure why dog owners feel entitled to have barking dogs all day but that is why I bring ear plugs. Beach access is great, can walk for a mile or two with no condos!

Absolutely beautiful park. Well maintained facilities and lots to do. Within easy walking distance were hiking trails, Atalayah'castle'(great tour), nature center and estuary walk, gift shop/ visitors center, lots of hiking trails, and the beach! We walked everywhere but bikes would be awesome. We were in site 113 on the back loop- those sites(back loop) were super private and very well spaced out for privacy- the most private sites I've ever seen at a state park. Wifi was good near the bathrooms, but not at our site, so if you need wifi go towards the bathrooms. We camped at Huntington Beach State Park in a Travel Trailer.

Luckily this campsite is the closest one to where my mother in law lives bc this is a wonderful one! Plenty to walk around and see, many campsites are dispersed. There is a large playground for children, ample facilities and privacy (depending on where you choose), quick walk to the beach and so much nature. Loved, loved, loved!!!! You could bird watch, go for a run, a hike or go to the beach. The people were super nice and the check in process was seamless. They were following social distancing guidelines during covid. We stayed in February and even though it was cold and rainy we had a blast. We did have one beautiful day. We stayed on a partial hook up site and I would definitely do that again. The dump station was clean and easy to use. The garbage area was organized and clean and close enough to the campsite without being too close to draw animals 100% gem. Will return!!! Great with kids or without, it was quiet and I highly recommend.

We camped here this weekend. Rain finally stopped and Sat and Sun were sunny and cool. We love this park to walk the beach, watch the birds and just relax. Sites are spread out and spacious. We had a full hookup site this weekend #86.

One of the cleanest campgrounds I’ve been to in South Carolina. And only a short walk from the beach

Sweet spot near Myrtle Beach, SC yet far enough away from the overwhelming commercial properties, yet so many things to do!Beautiful Marsh walk to view birds and other critters at low tide (bring tons of bug spray in the summer), beautiful flat beach (great for walks), visit Atalaya Castle, the historical home on the property, then cross the highway to Brookgreen Gardens (spectacular Christmas lights display is a MUST see during the holiday season) to enjoy the sculptures and multitudes of plants. They have plenty of other amenities including RV hookups, beach shower facilities, ADA friendly beach access, picnic tables, playground, nature center. Palm trees galore!

Two beach entrances, huge grounds,surf fishing , bike paths,eating area and great wildlife trails for photos.
