About Aiken State Park

Aiken State Park sits along the South Fork of the Edisto River near Windsor. Visitors come for fishing on its four lakes, paddling a short canoe and kayak trail, and swimming in a spring-fed area. Boat rentals are offered, though they must be booked a day ahead. The park also preserves work from the Civilian Conservation Corps, built during the Great Depression, and has picnic shelters, campsites, and a trail network.
