Pumpkins beside your camper, candy waiting for trick-or-treaters, and dinner sizzling on the grill as the evening air turns fresh and comfortable—Halloween camping has a charm all its own.
At Mount Pleasant / Charleston KOA Holiday, our October 29–31, 2026, Halloween weekend brings together campground traditions, costumes, sweet treats, and family fun. Whether you’re planning an RV camping trip or a cabin getaway near Charleston, here are ten reasons to spend Halloween with us.
Why squeeze all the fun into one evening? A Halloween camping trip gives you time to decorate, join activities, gather around the campfire, and enjoy being away together.
Make it a family fall getaway, invite friends to book alongside you, or enjoy a weekend for two. There’s room for Halloween excitement and a leisurely morning with coffee outside your cabin or camper.
Bring your candy bag and your favorite costume, because campground trick-or-treating puts a fun twist on a familiar tradition.
Decorated campsites become part of the experience, and campers get to share treats and admire one another’s creativity. Afterward, settle into your camping chair while the kids compare their candy collections.
Our Site Decorating Contest gives you a reason to unpack those pumpkins, ghosts, and twinkling lights.
Go all out with a spooky display, choose a cheerful fall theme, or keep it simple with a few decorations that make you smile. Walking around to see everyone’s Halloween campsite decorations is part of the fun, especially when the lights come on in the evening.
Pack the cape, the silly hat, or the costume you’ve been planning for weeks, because our Costume Contest is part of the celebration.
Your furry camping companion can join in, too, with our Best Dressed Pet Contest. A pup dressed as a pumpkin or sporting a tiny superhero cape might just steal the show! It’s another reason to bring your camera and capture those only-on-vacation moments.
You don’t need a camper to join the festivities. A cabin stay at Mount Pleasant / Charleston KOA Holiday gives you a comfortable home base while you enjoy the campground’s Halloween activities.
Unpack, make yourself at home, and spend the weekend joining the fun or relaxing outside. If you’ve been looking for a Halloween getaway near Charleston, a cabin lets you enjoy the camping experience without bringing an RV.
Chocolate, graham crackers, and a playful marshmallow twist? Yes, please!
Peeps S’mores bring a little Halloween personality to a camping favorite, and they’re a sweet reason to gather and enjoy a treat together. Just save a little room after all that trick-or-treat candy.
Come ready to play, create, and treat yourself, because our Halloween weekend is packed with Fall Festival Games, Pumpkin Painting, Face Painting, games with prizes, and so much more!
Stop by the Caramel Apple Treat-in-a-Cup Bar for a sweet taste of fall, then join the fun and see what you can win. With creative activities, tasty treats, and plenty of reasons to laugh together, you’ll want to leave room in your weekend for it all!
Our wagon ride to historic Oakland Plantation is a special part of a stay at Mount Pleasant / Charleston KOA Holiday.
Climb aboard, sit back, and enjoy the scenery as you travel over to this historic property. It’s a chance to experience a little Lowcountry history together, and it adds something memorable to a weekend filled with Halloween fun.
Make time for the ride, then return to the campground ready for your next activity—or a relaxing evening beside your camper or cabin.
Why stay at a hotel when your Halloween getaway could include grilled food, an outdoor meal, and a camping chair waiting for you afterward?
Bring your favorite burgers, hot dogs, or other grill-night ingredients, and make dinner part of the experience. At your cabin or RV site, you can enjoy the pleasure of cooking outside and gathering around the table together.
There’s something satisfying about finishing a day of festivities with a meal you made yourself, and our Movie Nights give you another way to round out the evening.
When the evening air feels fresh and comfortable, pull up a chair and stay outside a little longer. Bring a cozy layer, enjoy the warmth of a campfire, and look up for stars when the sky is clear.
Halloween camping also gives you an easy reason to meet your neighbors. Admire their decorations, swap camping stories, and share a laugh over the day’s costumes. The photo captures that spirit perfectly: festive campsites, campers relaxing outside, and candy ready to share.
Those simple moments can become the reason you come back next year.
