Little Pee Dee State Park

Little Pee Dee State Park is a woodland park in South Carolina centered around Lake Norton and bordered by swamps and sandy shores. The park includes a variety of accommodation options for visitors, from tent sites to RV spaces and one waterfront cabin.

The park was established as a state preserve to protect the natural features of the Atlantic Coastal Plain region. The landscape developed over long periods through natural geological processes that continue to shape the area today.

The park's name honors the Pee Dee Indians who lived in this region, and that heritage remains visible in the landscape and local geography. Walking through the area, you sense this connection to the people who once called this place home.

The park is open during daylight hours and welcomes visitors to hike, fish, and boat on the lake throughout the year. Insect repellent and weather-appropriate clothing are helpful, especially during warmer months when mosquitoes are more active near swampy areas.

The lake allows only electric boat motors, making it one of the quieter fishing spots in the region. This rule helps keep the water peaceful and is appreciated by anglers seeking a calm experience and wildlife watchers exploring from their boats.
