South Cove County Park, October 2015

This week's road trip took us to South Cove  Park in Seneca.  The park is on Lake Keowee and offers a variety of recreational activities.  Of the 88 campsites, 46 are on the water. There are tennis and volley board courts; picnic areas; a playground; boat ramps; and a handicap accessible fishing pier. The park was in high gear for Halloween.

Campsites are available  on the point of the park peninsula

Across the lake from the pier was a jaw dropping honest to goodness castle with turrets and moat.  Try double clicking to enlarge the photo.  A guy fishing on the pier told me someone had bought the castle two years ago and began remodeling, then stopped.  We might try to find the street access some time for a closer look.
