Hurricane Recovery. What is Currently Open at Clarks Hill Lake.

It’s been months since Helene ripped through our area wreaking havoc in its wake. Unfortunately, it’s going to take a lot longer than a few months to clean up her mess. The recreation and camp ground areas around the lake were hit hard and all closed until further notice. The good news… things are beginning to open back up. The primary focus, according to the Corps, has been to reopen boat ramps and hunter access. So far, 2 day use areas, 17 Boat Ramps, and 19 Hunter Access Areas have been successfully opened. The full list from the US Army Corps of Engineers website as of 4/17/25 is below.
