Barnwell State Park was created by the Civilian Conservation Corps during the Great Depression, and many of the buildings that were built during this time are still standing, including five cabins and four picnic shelters. The most popular activity in the park is fishing; three small lakes can be found here, and non-motorized boats are permitted on all of them. Boats and fishing rods are available for rent on site. More than 20 campsites are available to anyone who would like to spend the night in the park, and there is also a beautiful nature trail that winds its way around one of the lakes.
