Meetings & Retreats
If you are interested in escaping the hustle and bustle of the office to find time to unwind and think with your group in a relaxed, casual atmosphere, then our parks fit the bill. We have spacious meeting rooms for day-use and overnight accommodations should you need to spend a couple of days away from the office. Many of our facilities offer wi-fi service as well as audio-visual equipment so you can escape but still accomplish your goals. Parks that are ideal for these outings include: Hickory Knob, Devils Fork, Santee, Lake Greenwood and others. Search for a park near you!
