About this map

The Waccamaw River dominates this coastal South Carolina landscape, carving a complex network of channels and islands including Oatbed Island and the meandering Old River. This 2011 survey documents the established settlements of Bucksville and Bucksport along with the smaller communities of Klondike and Coopers. The river's significance to local commerce and recreation is evident in the numerous access points and maritime facilities, such as Peachtree Landing, Rheuark Landing, and the Osprey Marina.

Further inland, the terrain is defined by low-lying wetlands like Cowford Swamp and Halfway Swamp, which drain into the river via creeks such as Big Buckskin Creek and Socastee Creek. The map shows a growing suburban road network surrounding older landmarks like Mills Pond and Ransoms Bluff, reflecting the modern transition of this riverine corridor between historic timber landings and contemporary residential development near the coast.
