About

Coneross Campground is located on the Seneca River arm of the northern end of Hartwell Lake in South Carolina. Spanning parts of South Carolina and Georgia, Hartwell Lake is one of the Southeast's largest and most visited public recreation lakes. It comprises nearly 56,000 acres of water and has a shoreline of 962 miles. Natural Features: The lake shore is thickly forested with mostly pine, and the lake itself is large with many inlets and coves to explore. Numerous species of birds call this area home, including waterfowl, shorebirds, woodland birds, and even the occasional peregrine falcon and bald eagle. Recreation: Fishing is one of the most popular activities at the lake. Sought-after species include largemouth bass, bream, crappie, catfish, striped bass, and hybrid bass. The lake appeals to boaters of all kinds, whether their specialty is canoeing, sailing, or motor boating. Coves and areas of quiet water provide water skiers with excellent surfaces. Swimmers will find sand beaches and designated swim areas along the shoreline. Facilities: Coneross boasts sweeping views of Hartwell Lake. This campground has a total of 105 sites, most of which have water and electric hookups. Twelve are non-hookup, primitive sites. All of the sites are spacious and mostly shaded. Amenities include a boat ramp, courtesy dock, dump station, restrooms with showers, and a playground. Nearby Attractions: The campground is a short drive away from Clemson, South Carolina, and Clemson University, offering additional tourism opportunities, along with grocery stores, gas stations, and restaurants.
