About
Hickory Knob State Resort Park, on the shore of the 71,000-acre Strom Thurmond Reservoir, is a full-service golf resort with an 18-hole course, skeet range, and 76 lodge rooms (not counted in the total below) alongside 44 campsites. Hookup details are not published on the park's own page.
Fees
South Carolina State Parks does not publish a static per-night camping rate on this park's own page - its Itinio reservation system (reserve.southcarolinaparks.com) uses live, date-based dynamic pricing. Check the reservation link for current rates. Pets are allowed on a leash (or other physical restraint) throughout South Carolina State Parks, including campgrounds, per the agency's statewide rules - though pets are not permitted in or around lodging facilities (cabins/villas/lodge rooms). (southcarolinaparks.com/rules-regulations, confirmed live.)
