Campers, please be advised:  If you have a camping reservation, you do not need to check-in at the office.  You may go directly to your campsite.  Our park rangers or campground host will come by during patrols and check you in at that time.  Thanks for your assistance.


There is an electric vehicle charging station for use by visitors at the park.


We Do Treats and More has partnered with Santee State Park to provide frozen treats to park visitors! Be on the lookout for them in the campground and Day-use areas on weekends!
