2020 Map of Reed Creek

About this map

Hartwell Lake dominates the landscape along the Georgia and South Carolina border, its intricate shoreline carving deep into the surrounding terrain near the town of Hartwell. This modern survey reveals a highly developed residential and recreational network of peninsulas, where roads like Tugaloo Heights Cir and Clearwater Shores Rd provide access to the water's edge. Despite the contemporary lakefront development, the map preserves the deeper history of the region through its numerous family and community landmarks. Researchers will find a high density of small burial grounds, such as the Cole Civil War Cem and McMullan Cem, alongside long-standing rural settlements like Reed Creek and Maretts. The transition from the agriculture-heavy uplands, marked by the headwaters of Little Lightwood Log Cr, to the leisure-oriented waterfront is punctuated by small aviation sites like Mustang Field.
