Mile Markers & Memories

Dreher Island State Park is a beautiful place to camp and relax. The location on the lake is excellent, with peaceful views and plenty of nature all around. It has that classic state park feel where you can actually slow down and enjoy being outside. Everyone we interacted with was friendly and helpful, which always makes a stay better. The campsites are nice and well maintained, and the park overall feels clean and cared for. If you’re traveling with a big rig, just know it’s a bit tight getting around and backing in. It’s manageable if you take your time, but it’s not the easiest layout for larger setups. Once you’re parked, though, the views and atmosphere make it worth the effort. Overall, a really great state park with a friendly vibe and beautiful surroundings. We’d happily stay here again.

A gorgeous place to walk during the fall, even saw deer in the woods. It's a good place to swim during the summer and have family day outings with kayaking on the lake. I would recommend this.Please for swimming and a family outing. They have several different parks, areas of restrooms throughout the entire park.

I stayed a week just before the big winter storm. Quiet out idyllic would be the 2 words I would use to describe this place in the Winter. I can imagine it gets quite busy in the summer, but at this time of year expect beautiful views, peaceful walks and gentle lapping of the waves on the lakeshore. Dreher Island appears to be a fishing lake, so if you're inclined, bring your boat. They have a marina with plenty of parking. And it's location on the lake is very central, so there's many miles of lakeshore to explore. If you're planning on staying anywhere near Columbia, Dreher Island is a good choice.
