Hamilton Branch is located in the western Piedmont of South Carolina on Strom Thurmond Lake, a popular fishing, boating and water recreation destination.

The park covers an entire 731-acre peninsula that provides ample shoreline for fishing. It's also the reason why most of the park's campsites are lakefront and spacious.

The park's rolling terrain supports a variety of wildlife and provides an excellent setting in which to see the natural beauty of the Savannah Valley region.

park review stars; one to five Hamilton Branch is the State Park of our choice. My Partner and I will drive up just for the day with our two dogs Sadie and Lily just to get onto a raft and float in the water. We rent three to four spots all beside one another at least twice every summer and invite all of our closes friends to come spend the weekend camping with us. We absolutly love it. I hope you will too.
