Hickory Knob State Resort Park combines a golf resort and a remote state park on the shore of the 71,000-acre Strom Thurmond Reservoir. It is tucked away in a quiet, wooded setting and offers more amenities than a typical state park. The resort has an 18-hole championship golf course, a buffet restaurant, skeet shooting, an archery range, a boat ramp and meeting rooms. More than 70 lodge-style rooms are available, along with cabins and a lakeside campground. A popular biking trail runs through the park, and the lodge suits family getaways, reunions and retreats.
