2016 Map of Live Oak Lake

About this map

Live Oak Lake and the winding drainages of Goliad County define this South Texas landscape during the mid-2010s. The area is characterized by a network of seasonal and perennial waterways, including Sarco Cr and its tributary Little Sarco Cr, which carve through the terrain alongside Cottonwood Hollow. These natural features, along with scattered water bodies like Hackberry Lake and Bundick Lake, suggest a pastoral environment largely dedicated to ranching and watershed management. Transport and transit through this rural expanse are anchored by Alt 77 and Highway 183, providing critical links between the remote coastal plains and the interior. To the north, Horseshoe Lake and Cadena Cr mark the transition toward broader floodplains, illustrating the hydrological patterns of the region before the influence of significant modern urban development.
