Mile Creeek Park on Lake Keowee 
Mile Creek Park is a Pickens County Park that sits on the eastern shores of Lake Keowee. It’s a lovely, well-maintained park that has a great deal to offer visitors.
Composed of a large peninsula with three “islands” at the end, the Park, with over 7 miles of lakefront, offers water views and access in almost any direction.
More than two-thirds of the 69 RV and tent campsites offer direct access to Lake Keowee and all have water and electrical hook ups as well as fire rings. There are three bathrooms conveniently located throughout the Park and a Park store that carries some of the camping necessities including firewood, beverages and snacks.
With hiking trails, boat ramps, ample parking for cars and trailers, a large dock and a sandy-beach swimming area, the Park takes advantage of all Lake Keowee has to offer.
