Goodale State Park, State park in Camden, South Carolina
The 763-acre park contains a 140-acre lake surrounded by tall cypress trees, offering three miles of water trails through natural vegetation.
The central lake started as a Civil War era mill pond, and in 1973 Kershaw County donated the land to establish the state park.
The park bears the name of N.R. Goodale, a local florist who played an essential role in the establishment of this recreational space.
Visitors can rent canoes and kayaks with paddles and life jackets from the park office, while admission to the grounds remains free.
The Big Pine Tree Creek Nature Trail features markers identifying native plants, including Loblolly Pine, Water Oak, and Eastern Red Cedar species.
