About Lake Murray State Park

Lake Murray State Park covers about 12,500 acres of wooded, rolling hills around Lake Murray near Ardmore. Visitors fish, boat, and take part in water sports on the lake, which has a long shoreline. The park offers RV and tent campgrounds, dozens of cabins (many of them historic structures from the 1930s built by the Civilian Conservation Corps), and a lodge with a pool and meeting space. Recreation includes an 18-hole golf course, more than 30 miles of hiking and biking trails, nearly 1,000 acres of ATV and dirt bike terrain, horseback riding, and naturalist-led programs.
