The Live Oak campground is about 0.7 miles from the beach, but you can drive down to the beach camp area and park there, and then it’s a very short walk to the beach. Live Oak has mature trees, and most sites are shady with good vegetation growth between sites. Interior road can get narrow and twisty, requiring caution if you have a larger rig. Some pull through sites are on corners, limiting your privacy. Electric and water are at sites, the dump is across the street. The beach loop has little privacy and most will have full sun all day. There are well marked hiking and biking trails, Educational Learning Center, fishing pier and boat launch. When in the area you should visit the Ace Basin nature reserve. It has a hiking loop of just about 3 miles.
Nice camp area at Edisto Beach State Park. Spaces are mostly shaded and RVs have electric and water, but no sewer connections. There is a dump station across the road from the Live Oak entrance. You need to bring your own fresh water for drinking and cooking, the water is too salty. The trails are nice.
This was a quiet campground (Live Oak) located with a handful of sites right on the marsh. It was centrally located to Edisto beach as well as a piece of history at Driftwood Beach. The campground itself offers large sites as well as some tighter sites. In the campground itself—there isn’t much for children to do, but we made the best of it. The state park does offer activities at the Learning Center, but you do need to drive there. The outside of the bathhouse looked presentable, but we never went inside. There is small camp store and the campground didn’t appear to offer WiFi. There was a lot of garbage by the dumpsters and 1 dump station made for a wait, but they do look like they are in the process of adding to the dump station. The campground has beautiful Oak Trees that are admirable and provide plenty of shade!
This has always been one of our favorite places to camp. We have always loved it because it was somewhat of a "hidden gem". Unfortunately the last several times we have been, it has been harder to get a reservation due to its popularity. And as comes along with more people, more noise lol. The campground was still pretty nice. The bath houses left a little to be desired, with a few items in need of repair, which could just be due to the higher than normal use. Other than that the park was fairly clean and trails were well maintained.
