Well maintained; not crowded

II really like this park. It is very well maintained, showers are immaculate and the trails are very well marked. Since this park doesn't have a huge boating lake or the ocean I don't think it is as popular as other parks. I visited the park in mid June and it was less than 25% occupied. I chose this park because of the huge number of trails in the park and its proximity to the swamps on the Santee for kayaking. Other people come here because it's reasonably close to Congaree National Park which has few campsites. The small man-made lake also has a small swimming area which was nice also. It's also worth noting that this region is known for being a little cooler then the surrounding areas in the summer because of its slightly higher elevation than the surrounding area. Great Park. I'll be back.
