2017 Map of Clarks Hill

About this map

J. Strom Thurmond Reservoir and the Savannah River dominate the western portion of this landscape, forming the state boundary between South Carolina and Georgia. This modern survey illustrates the complex interface of water and land along the winding shoreline, where points like The Point extend into the reservoir. The topography of the eastern half is largely protected within the Sumter National Forest, characterized by numerous creek drainages including Stevens Creek, Deep Step Cr, and Buzzard Br. Small communities like Modoc, Clarks Hill, and Meriwether are linked by a network of state roads and local routes such as Middleton Ferry Rd and Clarks Hill Rd. For those researching local history, the map provides precise locations for family and community resting places, including Modoc Cem, Jones Cem, Bethlehem Cem, and Ashbury Cem. Outdoor recreation is evidenced by the Bartram Trail and the Modoc Turkey/Stevens Creek Canoe Trail.
