Please use caution when approaching the park. Paving projects located both north and south of the park on U. S. Highway 521 are causing lane closures and delays in the area. On Friday, March 29, work crews will be paving the highway at the park entrance which will close one north bound lane and one south bound lane. The turning lanes to enter the park will remain open.

Andrew Jackson State Park combines history, art and community activities into a setting that has made it one of the state’s most popular parks.
Favorite features include living history programs, a museum and interactive exhibits that chronicle Jackson’s boyhood in the South Carolina backcountry. There’s even a birthday celebration every March in honor of America’s seventh president.
Among the park highlights are a striking statue of the “Boy of the Waxhaws” sculpted by Anna Hyatt Huntington, an 18th-century replica schoolhouse and more.
Other park attractions include an 18th-century replica schoolhouse, campground and picnic facilities, fishing lake and nature trails.
