Description:
<A HREF="http://www.anglerschannel.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=links.dreher_island_state_park">Park Video Tour</a> Out into the lake but not far from the city, Dreher Island State Recreation Area is a great place to get away from it all. Only about 30 miles from downtown Columbia on the shores of big Lake Murray – one of the best-known largemouth and striped bass fishing destinations in the South – the park consists of three islands linked to shore by a causeway and two bridges. In addition to woodsy hiking trails and lots of places to fish from shore, Dreher Island offers picnicking, camping and lakeside villas. A tackle shop and boat ramp also is available. The park has long been popular with recreational boaters and fishermen, and has been a launching spot for major national bass tournaments.
