Get ready to witness a beautiful love affair between rustic serenity and camping luxury.

Calhoun Falls is a simple-living paradise, and it’s South Carolina’s worst kept secret, so book early and book hard. There’s plenty to explore in this verdant, secluded paradise. The area used to be full of farms, and though the agricultural land has given way to new forest growth, old farms and homesteads can be discovered with a quick walk or horseback ride through the area. Watch the sun set behind the mountains from your perfect lakeside campsite. You’ll hate to see it go, but love to watch it leave.
The best time to visit Calhoun Falls State Park is during the spring and fall when the weather is mild and the natural scenery is at its most vibrant. Summer offers warm days perfect for swimming and boating, while winter provides a peaceful atmosphere. Avoid visiting during campground renovations to ensure full access to the park's facilities.
