Nice location. However, the roads and grounds could do with some more maintenance.

We live in Buffalo but would make your KOA a destination. We loved it. Best KOA out of all we have been to in our travels to 50 states and 10 Canadian provinces whenever we have camped.

Great value and location. Loved the amenities and trash pickup service. Near a gas station.

This stop was an overnight stay. Very friendly staff. We were driven to our site by one of the staff members. We had a site close to the lake. Would definitely stay here again on my way South.

This KOA is the perfect port in a long highway haul. I can see people love it for the destination as it is beautiful location. We love it for the convenience. After a long travel day the friendly staff and the awesome pizza/wings delivered to your site is the perfect recipe for a calm ending to a hectic day. Thank you!!

Over priced for the parking site

Just a quick stop over on the way to Florida, but very convenient, and the staff is extremely nice. I have stopped here before, and would not hesitate to stop again.

Santee is always a favorite spot for us! Beautiful Pake Marion is a must see every time and we love the smell of the pine trees. The only downside was that The Kake House was closed. As this is our very last trip with our rv it was bittersweet!

Absolutely the BEST staff!! They were VERYunderstanding & accommodating our stay that was plagued with weather related delays as well as a day early arrival. It was 2 separate weather conditions that threatened to get us trapped with either dangerous snowy or windy conditions. I had Dodge both conditions in order to travel safely. The fantastic staff is why we stay @ Santee Lake every year.

Very nice people

The campground roads and sites are not maintained at all; rough, deep rutts, uneven terrain. Lots of run down or even abandoned permanents. Pull thru sites are not level, too short; had to disconnect. Bathrooms reeked of cigarettes. All at a higher cost than other much nicer cleaner campgrounds in the same area. A one and done for us. This KOA left us questioning future membership.

Very friendly staff. Property is clean and has a beautiful view of the lake. The quality of facilities is subpar and isn’t representative of the KOA standard. It was good for a one night stay during our journey.

Just pulled in with no reservation and they were very nice and had an open space for us

It is a beautiful setting amoung the longleaf pines and on the shore of Lake Marian. Your service is most fine, especially having a pull through site close to the bathroom!!!

We stay here overnight, every winter, on our way down to Florida. We always feel great when we pull in and park under the trees and look out across Lake Marion. The staff are very friendly and helpful, the campground is clean, and it's a quick walk around the fence to the local bar for a celebratory drink. The only, surprise we encountered was a lack of hot water in the bathroom.

I love this campground: the grounds are beautiful. The cabins are fabulous. I would give a 4.5/5. Unfortunately, there were cat hairs, dog hairs and dust, on the floor, despite the $70 cleaning fee for each pet. (I did not have a pet).

Was off season and slightly empty when I stopped in. It was peaceful and clean. The bathrooms are a tad dated but were very clean. My interactions with the staff were also great. It was a very nice but no frills campground. Would def stop in again.

Love the lake view. The bath house and laundry were convenient to our location and it was spic and span! Check in was great and staff friendly and accommodating!

Mixed feelings about this KOA park. Though the staff was very friendly and helpful and the view of the Marion Lake is beautiful, this park needs a lot of maintenance attention. Many pot holes in the road, there's building debris spread over an area that should be removed and some of the basic fixtures in the park need repaired. It's a good place for a quick stop over off of I-95.

I was warmly welcomed on a terribly cold day.

Easy stop off of I-95, great pizza and wings.

Very helpful staff. We had to change our reservation due to a heavy snowstorm coming. They were very accommodating, sent a welcome message about our upcoming stay. We try to stay here every year on our way to and from Florida so easy from 95.

One very easy night while traveling south. Very nice place right on the lake with lots to do for an extended stay. I’d definitely stop here again.

Beautiful park close to the interstate, easy in and out. Located on Lake Marion, beautiful beach, scenic views and peaceful. We were in H2 site and had great views of the beach and water. We will definitely be back again
