Devil's Fork State Park
The Devils Fork State Park is about 36 miles from Greenville, and is the only way to access Lake Jocassee. Although it is a state park, the lodging facilities are far from rustic. The park offers 20 villas tucked into the woods, 15 of which have two bedrooms, and the remaining five have three bedrooms. The cabins come stocked with cooking and eating utensils, linens, heat, air conditioning, televisions, microwaves and a screened porch. Barbecue grills and picnic tables are also provided for each cabin. Water is the name of the game in this lakefront park, which is popular with fishermen, boaters and scuba divers. A two-night minimum stay is required for the villas, or one week in the summer months. Free wireless Internet connections are available at the park store and information center.
