About

Located on the shores of Lake Keowee with views of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Keowee-Toxaway State Park campground offers a variety of camping options. The developed campground includes 10 paved sites with individual water and electrical hookups that can accommodate RVs up to 40 feet in total vehicle length, though larger units may have difficulty navigating the campground roads. A designated tent area features 10 sites with individual tent pads, fire rings, and central water access. All campers have convenient access to restroom facilities with hot showers. For those seeking a more remote experience, three backcountry campsites are available near the shores of Lake Keowee, accessible either by hiking the Raven Rock Trail or by paddling from the canoe/kayak launch. These sites feature combination fire ring/grill pits and require registration. The park also offers a primitive group camping area for organized groups of 6-25 people. The park provides access to hiking trails, fishing, swimming, and boating on Lake Keowee, as well as proximity to the Jocassee Gorges wilderness area.
