Welcome! I’m Brandon Goff, Park Manager here at Ramsey Grove State Park. As a native South Carolinian, my passion for our incredible resources and rich history has served as my compass needle throughout my career. Much of my childhood was spent exploring nearby forests and farms, igniting a deep-seeded love of the incredible natural world that surrounds us. As a part of the South Carolina State Park service, I’m privileged to share some of these truly special places with our visitors.
I welcome you to stroll the historic grounds and immerse yourself in the rich history and beauty that is Ramsey Grove. Under the canopy of historic grand oaks, you’ll find that the dark flowing waters of the Black River and soft coastal breeze create landscapes of peace and reverence.
I’m honored to welcome you to Ramsey Grove State Park.
Step back in time and experience the rich history, natural beauty and enduring legacy of life steeped in the dark waters of the Black River.
