Twin Peaks

DiningOPERATIONAL★ 4.5
Exterior view of a lodge-style building at Congaree National Park, with a large parking lot in front.

Wings land with a crack of crisp skin and a glossy coat of sauce, the heat riding along the bite. The Trophy Trout presents a clean, grilled bite with steady seasoning that invites a deeper chew. The Billionaire's Bacon Burger stacks thick-cut bacon and sriracha pimento cheese on a juicy patty, with beer mustard and mayo adding a tangy kick. The vibe stays high-energy and lodge-like, with vegan and gluten-friendly options riding along the full menu.
