Short Stay Navy Outdoor Recreation Area

Short Stay belongs to the Charleston, SC Navy Weapons Station. It’s actual location is north of Moncks Corner, SC a few miles off US-52. It is a gated facility with around the clock security. This is a large complex with just about any type of recreational equipment on hand for immediate check-out by authorized users. There is a large well stocked CG store. They also have a wide selection of fishing equipment for sale and live bait.

Even though I have an uncle and five first cousins in the immediate area we have only stayed here once. For a long stay it’s just too far from town and would require manually dumping our gray & black tanks. For a long weekend of just camping out with family and friends and doing some fishing it’s great.

We had a very large corner site up under the trees and away from most of the nightly activities.

It took me awhile to find a place to get a dish signal. I finely found it out behind the trailer almost into the site next to us




This is part of the large protected bay where the boat launching area is along with the large mooring area




There are a number of family party pavilions on the CG and all have volley ball courts and horse shoe pits. This one was in use when I was walking around taking pictures.




Coming in on the entrance road you will run right into the beach area. Those large buildings out on the point are rentals for large families or groups.
