Nice campsites. Beware the elevation change as some are a bit of a hike. Sites have fire ring with cooking grate.

This campsite was recently renovated in 2020, and now includes additional campsites, food hooks, leveled pads for tents, and an outhouse. The site is about 3-4 miles from the Devil's Fork Ranger station and boat ramps.

The area is quiet and charming, with lots of shoreline to paddle on Lake Jocassee. West of the campsite is a few beautiful waterfalls, while some of the best fishing on the lake can be found along the northeast shores.

Nicely maintained campsite, with each campsite located far enough apart to maintain good privacy. More amenable to kayaks and canoes as there is no boat dock.

It was fun, somehow we lend it right when the boy scout troop was there so it was loud. But other than that, it's really pretty and it's definitely worth a trip.

Awesome time, sites are spacious and up to date. Bathroom situation is a true camping experience! Haha we loved every minute of it.

I should preface my review by saying that just two months before we camped at the Devil’s Fork boat campsite we camped at BWCA lake n Ely, MN. It would be hard to beat that. So:
Pros:
1. easy access: it took us less than an hour to canoe from the rental area to the campsites.
2. Really nice campsites: each campsite has a large flat pad surrounded by wooden border and includes a fire pit with grate and two hooks on a large steel post to hang trash, lanterns, etc.
3. Gorgeous views
4. Some of the clearest cleanest lake water I have ever seen
Cons:
1. The park didn’t have a map to show us how to find the campsite. It wasn’t terribly complicated, but an updated comprehensive map would have been very helpful.
2. The campsites are pretty close together.
3. We could hear boat engines late into the evening and early in the morning.
4. Even though our side of the cove only hade a few other full sites, it was still pretty noisy from the other side of the cove.

This is an awesome place to camp if you have a boat to get there. The water is so clean and the area is beautiful. Highly recommend it. But be careful what site you get some are straight up a hill.

Newley renovated campsites
There is also a new outhouse but no power on sites great for rustic camping and beautiful views. Some campsites are a hike and there uphill so be prepared for a hike!

Did two nights at the boat in tent sites. Site was clean, view was great, however a bit pricey for primitive camping.
