Depending on which side of town you are visiting. (North or South) will dictate where you stay due to traffic. Where on I-77 do you need to be?
I think southeast, something like Matthews???
The closest to you will be either the Fort Mill KOA or going over to Concord. Either way, you are going to have to deal with traffic, no matter which one you pick and the time of day you are moving about. Ft Mill KOA is a typical KOA. Trees, pool, etc. You can cut across a couple of back roads and get on Hwy 51 (Pineville-Matthews Rd). It will be busy, but will be better than getting on 485.
The Tom Johnson Camping "Resort" is a gravel parking lot pit. The Tom Johnson dealership oftens uses part of it as an overflow. They do not own the RV Park, even though their name is on it. If there are racing events going on, then it can be loud. The Zmaxx dragway buts right up to it. The dirt track is not too far away either and of course CMS is right across the street. Best bet from there will be 485 and Schrecker will tell you what a nightmare it can be.
There is no real good way of getting to Matthews unless you are south of it.
