Santee State Park was established in the mid-20th century as part of a larger initiative to create recreational areas around the state's lakes. Lake Marion, where the park is located, is a reservoir created by the Santee Dam on the Santee River. The dam was constructed in the 1930s as part of the New Deal initiatives during the Great Depression.
