The Sabine River snakes along the border of Newton County and Beauregard Parish, defining a landscape of dense backwaters and bayous. This area, located near the settlement of Bancroft, is characterized by a complex network of oxbow lakes including Lower Circle Lake, Sydney Lake, and Bose Lake. The river's influence is evident in the named meanders like Snider Bend and Taylor Bend, which have historically dictated the location of river crossings such as Whitmans Ferry and Salem Ferry.
