3 Creeks Camp and Nature Preserve

14 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents10 acres · Anderson, SC

This Property was purchased by Grandfather in the 70s and then was passed to my Mother. In 2013 I decided to live life differently and start from the ground up building with natural materials and found materials. At that time I was fortunate enough to have the land passed to me and I started building a home for myself and to be close to my mothers home nearby. After achieving the basics I decided that the best use of this beautiful land was to create a place for people to relax and enjoy, a park like environment dedicated to preserving natural beauty and amplifying it through a permaculture lifestyle. 8 years later I am blown away at how far the dream has become a reality and love sharing my space with people from all over the country.

Glamping in South Carolina guide

Overview

From the forested peaks of the Blue Ridge Mountains to the golden beaches and marshlands of the Atlantic Shore, South Carolina provides startling contrasts for outdoor adventurers. You don’t have to pitch your tent in the wilderness to escape from it all, though. The Palmetto State also has plenty of glamping options for those who prefer their camping experience to come with a comfy bed, wifi, and a heater or fan—handy when summer temperatures start to climb above 90°F. Glampsites are as varied as the scenery, whether you want to cozy up in a romantic treehouse in the heart of the forest, go glamping off-grid within a short drive of Charleston, or check into a quirky tiny house or airstream. Along the coast, yurts, safari tents, and camper cabins provide fun alternatives within easy reach of Myrtle Beach, Huntington Beach, and Edisto Beach.

Glamping in South Carolina: What is glamping?

In South Carolina, glamping is a type of outdoor stay combining camping's nature setting with the luxury and convenience of comforts like beds, warm showers, or electricity. When glamping in South Carolina, there's no need to bring your own tent—instead, glampers may stay the night in a cabin, a vintage Airstream, a canvas bell tent, a yurt, or even a treehouse.
