Our review on Campground Reviews:

Nice under the trees

This is one of the most expensive state parks we’ve ever stayed at, but considering the location and what it would’ve cost at one of the resorts in the area, it’s a good deal, especially with the proximity to the beach. It was nice and shady under the trees, but it got tight on some of the roads for our 40′ motorhome. We had site 204, which was large enough for our motorhome and tow vehicle but extremely sloped front-to-back, and we couldn’t get completely level. The other major drawback is that the park is directly under the airport’s flight path, so it can get a bit loud. Thankfully, they seem to not operate after 11pm. We camped at Myrtle Beach State Park in a Motorhome.
