KOA in Ladson, SC

This is the view out the back window here at the Ladson KOA.  Not too cool is it?  The only good thing is that the laundry was very close and I got to visit there this afternoon.  The campground is very old and not very well maintained.  The sewer hook up is way too far from the rig and the manager is very familiar with this and had a suggestion for us for dumping when we leave. Cost was $40.00 for one night.  Everyone is very nice and there are lots of children with a cute playground.  (but the voices of the screaming children have sent us indoors).  The bathrooms don't look too bad.  Better than Oak Plantation anyway!

3-12-13 --  I want to update this review.  This has to be one of the dirtiest campground around and also the most congested.  It is very old and the landscaping is gone - replaced by dirt and almost no gravel.  It was built 30-40 years ago and the rigs were smaller and had no slideouts.  They packed everyone in there so tight I thought I would scream from claustrophobia!  Why do so many people want to stay there?  I don't really understand it.  We only stayed because it was 5 minutes from our 8 AM appointment!  I hope I never have to go there again!

Kathy and I have a KOA Discount card. Not only does it give you instant discounts but we also get free nights of camping. We have had the card for so long we are now classified as VIPs and haven't paid on the membership in 5 years.

We do agree that not all the KOAs hold the same quality of standards. They tend to be family oriented just like the Jellystone parks and kids are out of school for the next few weeks because of Winter Break so many parents take them camping. Be Safe and Enjoy!

It's about time.
