There are so many things to experience at or near this state park. My favorite section was the Living History Farm. There was also the old bath house at the lake, which is on the National Register of Historic Places. Adjacent to the state park is King’s Mountain National Battlefield, so if you want things to do, there is no shortage if you like history, like to fish, and like to hike. However, my campsite was not favorable to tent campers. If you are in an RV or a travel trailer, it would be great, but the gravel is uncomfortable to sleep on unless you are sleeping on a cot. The bath house(the one not on the National Register), is air conditioned and modern. However, you will need to take your own towel if you want to wash your hands. I did not see any paper towels. With that said, the bath house was great. The office fits right in with the theme of history. It has a charming cottage feel to it, and it has an old gas pump from the 1930s(?) out front. You can rent boats and PFDs from there as well as get some basic supplies. Additionally, there is a volleyball area and a basketball goal for the young at heart. As I stated earlier, my favorite area was the Living History Farm. I had to restrain myself from including too many photos of it. Overall, this was a great experience for things to do, but staying in a tent there was not ideal.
