Setting

Bluff Campground is a hike-in facility located a mile from the Harry Hampton Visitor Center at the junction of the Bluff and Firefly Trails in Congaree National Park. Set in an upland pine and hardwood forest, the tent-only sites surround an open clearing near a longleaf pine restoration area. Sites include picnic tables and fire rings. There are no restrooms, running water, or trash bins on-site; visitors must haul in water and pack out waste. Vault toilets and potable water are at the visitor center and nearby Longleaf Campground, with access to 27 miles of park trails.
