High Falls County Park Campground
When I headed south from western North Carolina I was on a mission to have some lake time. My first stop was the beautiful High Falls County Park. This beautiful county park is located on the shores of Lake Keowee in South Carolina. The below review is based on my standard categories and review scale with 1 Lucy 🚐 being the lowest score and 5 Lucys 🚐🚐🚐🚐🚐 being the highest.

Community/Comfort: The High Falls County Park is a well kept park with active camp hosts that made a point to stop in and check on me. Most campers were there to enjoy the lake and just relax. The park felt very safe and welcoming to me as a solo traveler. The beautiful trees and lake helped with the heat and made sleeping and hanging out in the van very comfortable.

Everything Else: The location of the campground right on Lake Keowee is the star of the show. The lake is clear, calm, and just beautiful. This was hands down the best part of my visit. WiFi is not available at the park and my AT&T cell signal was limited. Due to tree coverage at my spot I did not have much luck with my Starlink either, however some spots had less tree coverage. So, if the internet it important to you I would choose your spot carefully. The garbage was a good 20 minute walk from my spot which doesn’t bother me, but may be an inconvenience to others.
4 Lucys for for Extras 🚐🚐🚐🚐
Overall I would rate High Falls County Park Campground as 5 Lucys 🚐🚐🚐🚐🚐. The access to the stunning lake makes this an absolute must visit campground. But book ahead because the spots go fast.
Happy Camping!
