Camping on Pipers Pond

2 sites · RVs, Tents32 acres · Eastover, SC
Learn more about this land: Watch the sun and moon rise over the pond from the grassy knoll in the edge of the woods or under the trees. Enjoy paddling around the pond, fishing and watching the ducks and geese during the day and relaxing around the fire pit at night. We offer 2 campsites on the pond on our private property. They are both slightly sloped.  Site 1 is on the grassy knoll overlooking the pond. It is sunny early in the day and gets shady as the day progresses. It is closer to the outhouse. Site 2 is under the trees and right beside the pond. It gets spotty sun throughout the day. We live through the woods past the campsites. An outhouse with composting toilet, potable water, picnic table, grill, fire pit, fire wood and trash can are provided. Please note that we do not offer a 30 amp camper hookup, only a 15 amp electrical cord running from our house that will run lights, but not a/c or heat.

Camping near Columbia guide

Overview

Smack-bang in the heart of the state, the state capital of Columbia has easy access to South Carolina’s Great Outdoors. Camping getaways from the city are as varied as you could imagine. Drive two hours south, and you’ll hit Charleston and the Atlantic coast beaches; head north, and you’ll reach the Blue Ridge Mountains in the same amount of time. Closer to the city, Congaree National Park is a paradise for kayaking, Santee State Park sits on the shore of the 110,600-acre Lake Marion (the state’s largest), and Sesquicentennial State Park has pet-friendly RV and tent camping with a dog park on-site. Campers will find plenty of RV parks & campgrounds in and around the city, ranging from quiet rural Hipcamps to busy family campgrounds. Some of the best camping areas are dotted around Lake Murray in West Columbia, where you’ll also find great hiking trails, several boat ramps, and Dreher Island State Park.
