Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Little Pee Dee State Park adventure.
Discover the serene beauty of Little Pee Dee State Park.
Wondering how this state park got its unusual name? That’s easy! It’s named after the Little Pee Dee River, of course. You’ll have to visit the park yourself to learn more. Little Pee Dee is a sensory feast, best experienced by a quiet walk through the woods, stopping to examine the nearby black swamp, admire the blooming pinecones and glittering lake, and snap a picture of the mysterious geological depression known as Carolina Bay. If you’re looking to find yourself in nature, rent a kayak or canoe and paddle out to the middle of Lake Norton, where you can admire the swath of green forest sandwiched between bright blue water and sky. If you’re looking for a simple landscape to paint, a quiet lake to meditate beside, or a romantic getaway, this quiet pocket of nature is calling. (pee dee, pee dee, do you hear it?)
The best time to visit Little Pee Dee State Park is during spring and fall when the weather is mild and the natural scenery is at its most vibrant. Summer months offer extended office hours but can be hot and busy. Winters are quieter but cooler, ideal for those seeking solitude.
