Camp Wilderness Resort's draw is it's close proximity to the park. However, it's neither a resort nor cheap. Shuttle service is available to and from the park when Carowinds is open. McDowell Nature Preserve is approximately 4-5 miles west and offers W&E for $26/night. Ebenezer Park, a county park in Rock Hill is approximately 15 minutes south in Rock Hill, SC and offers FHUs and for $28/night. Ebenezer is first come, first served, sits on Lake Wylie and there is a small swimming area. If KOA is your cup of tea, you'll find one in Ft. Mill, S.C. at Exit 88 off of I-77, between Carowinds and Rock Hill.
