Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating The Takeaway: Charleston is a bucket list must and Oak Plantation is the campground of choice. A pastoral campground on the periphery of Charleston that has been well maintained and offers the best rv park experience in the vicinity. Not class A, not a resort moreover offering quiet solitude among mature live oak trees with large spacious grassed sites. Accessed directly from Savannah Hwy. and 11 miles from historic downtown Charleston with shopping and gastronomic delights. WiFi ranges from marginal to HD streaming (not sure why the inconsistency). Pictures on web site, rvparky, and Google Maps are representative of actual conditions. We have visited this campground for over a decade last visited June 2019 and again August 2019.

Appeal Rating Stayed 3 nights. Staff was polite and helpful. Gave us a map for easy access to everything we wanted to see--the reason is a left turn into the park at rush hour is a challenge due to heavy traffic not the turn itself, but all the turns out to siteseeing are right hand turns. Main road is asphalt with several speed bumps. Going slow is not a problem for me. The sites are gravel but very firm and not too close together. They have a lot of sites. Most with full hook ups. Most of those are pull throughs. They have a good number of electric and water only site. Lots of room to walk the dog. Large dog walk. Did not visit the restrooms. Other reviews mentions road noise, but we were not bothered.

When we first arrived my wife jumped out of the truck and asked if they had a restroom the desk clerk said how about your rv in a real sarcastic tone . Then on our last day we decided maybe we would add another day .We Inquired at the office we were told we would have to move spots . The campground wasn't close to being full .These two employees put a dark cloud over an otherwise happy trip .

Traveling full-time in a 38-foot coach we stayed 7-nights in a site for big rigs (site #NN1 - Pd $57.71 night) This was our first visit here. We've stayed in over 400 RV Parks and as far as WIFI goes, this RV park places in the Top Ten! We give this park 5-Stars for the fantastic WIFI! Our AT&T phones worked great here too. This park is a small well-maintained family owned park. The owners are very friendly and fantastic hosts. Big coaches need a gravel pad, so we also give this RV Park a 5-star rating for the thick gravel pad. Some RV Parks also have very narrow roads which make backing up very difficult, we found this park to have plenty of room to maneuver our coach. Some RV Parks are so dusty that one has to clean their coach after a stay, but not here, the dust on our coach was very minimal compared to many other parks. Our satellite did receive reception. Plenty of room to walk your dog here. This is a nice place to stay and we recommend it!

CLEAN! Omg! The bathroom are ridiculously clean!!!!! I am a clean freak and I cannot believe that a campground can have bathroom like this!!!! Amazing!!!
Clean picnic tables!
Individual hookups for waste, water, and electric!!

The grounds are really nice and well organized!!! Although it’s a campground it feels woodsy....everyone isn’t stacked on top of each other.

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating This was a fantastic campground. Very near downtown Charleston. The restrooms were immaculate and the campground was extremely well maintained. We had a small travel trailer and stayed at a Water/Electric Only site. It was nicely shaded and offered plenty of room between the other sites. When we were ready to depart, the dump stations (2 of them) were conveniently located on the main exit road. They were clean and the water hoses were like new. Overall, this was an enjoyable campground. The one item I would say that may need some work is the Internet equipment. The signal was so poor at our site that we could not get a solid enough connection to even check email. Other than that, this was a great campground.

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating We stayed here for most of a week to enjoy the Charleston area and this park is well located for that purpose. It is near fuel, groceries, restaurants and a main route into Charleston. That said, it is very difficult to get in and out of the park due to heavy traffic and proximity to an intersection. Also if more than a couple of rigs arrive at the same time there it can be difficult to get into the park off the road. It is a very nice park. We were in a section that was all paved and fairly level. The space was long and wide (we have slides on both sides). Park appears to be well maintained and very clean. Trash bins were available at the end of each row but recycle bins were far from RV sites. The bathrooms were clean but not enough for the size of this park (lines each time we wanted to shower). Only two washers & two dryers for the entire park (was glad I could wait to do laundry). We would most likely stay again as it's a nice park and recommend it with a caution about street access, shower and laundry limitations.

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating Stayed two nights in Oct. 2017 at site FF9 in a 27 FT.Class C with 1 slide out.
Pros:
Great dog park, fully enclosed and clean.
Walk to several near by restaurant's.
Publix next door.
Well kept fishing lake (did not fish in it)
Check out was a breeze, Had a person standing at the exit to check you out.
Cons:
First site I was given RR10 had vehicle's parked in it. Had to drive back to the office to be given another site.
Wi-Fi was very slow and at times non at all.
Kind of pricy at $95.18 for two nights.
Overall:
Would stay again. I could see this Campground as a great place to use as a base for visiting Downtown Charleston.

Appeal Rating Quick and easy check in
Very clean, flat and quiet. Sites higher than JJ will hear highway noise, there is actually less noise closer to 17.
One side is boat sales and Publix, the other side is cattle grazing so no noise from there.
Most sites are pull thru.
Handy for visiting Charlestown and close enough to consider for Savannah.

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating Campground was very nice and clean. The sites were a little closer than I like. In the section we stayed in there were not many trees but other parts of the park had plenty of shade.
They are crazy about their 10 MPH speed limit. I got up to 12 mph once without noticing and one of their employees tried to chase me down on a golf cart. I think his actions were very reckless.
Bath houses are very nice and clean. My daughter had no problems using them.
We will stay here again when we are in the area.

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating Stayed in our 40' fifth wheel in April of 2017. We started our stay on a Saturday that was very busy because of spring break. The Hwy 17 entrance was very difficult and dangerous to get into from the eastbound lane. I wish that someone had given us directions to go around and come in from the East. The traffic at the entrance is terrible! The grounds are really beautiful, with a lot of live oaks and a park like atmosphere. Sites are large and easy to get onto. The roads are paved and wide with easy turns. Pool is beautiful but unheated and cold. There are no bathrooms by the pool and the pool is right on Hwy 17 which is a mile from most sites. There are only four washers and two dryers for this huge campground, way too few. It is very convenient for touring Charleston and the surrounding area.

Appeal Rating We have a 33' travel trailer. The pull through sites are, in the main, very good and level with many of them having concrete pads. Most of them were very spacious and many were well shaded. The park is very clean, well laid out and well managed. However, I would suggest staying away from the back of the park as it is adjacent to the hwy. and can be noisy. If internet is important to you be aware that, although they list the internet as high speed, it definitely isn't. Unless you connect early in the morning, say 5:00 a.m. or so, it is almost impossible to get on or check your e-mail. The lower tv channels were clear but as you went higher the picture quality went quickly downhill. Those would be the only negatives that I thought were important. On a positive note, the park is very close to Charleston and all its attractions.

Appeal Rating This was a great park! Nice clean dog park, shady sites with picnic tables. I would recommend staying on the right/east side of the park to get away from road noise (the double letter rows would be quieter). The wifi was unsecured, which is the only reason that I gave them 4/5 on facility rating. Otherwise, I recommend it!

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating We went to this campground because our other reservations were cancelled due to Matthew. They were the only campground that returned our call. We usually 2 weeks a year to do shrimping and crabbing, so we take a little deeper freezer to place what we catch in. The website does not say anything about a deep freezer we were informed by the owner freezers were not allowed he was nice about it and said we could this time. ( We understood he does not want his live in campers to have freezer & refrigerators out side their campers). Check in was easy. The staff was friendly. If your on the back row WiFi is very spotty if you get connected. The website says NO TENTS there was one the whole week we were there on a site with camper (not a little one either).

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating This was a very nice park. The roads were well-maintained and the sites were spacious and level. The staff is very helpful and friendly and do a good job handling things at the park. The park is quite large but there is only one laundry room with four washers and two driers in the front of the property - another laundry room in the back of the property would be really good. The pool is quite nice and is located at the front of the property, so if you are in the back section, it is quite a walk to the pool. The location of the park is great - 15 minutes from Charleston and the beach.
