Small lakeside dog beach on Clarks Hill/Thurmond Reservoir—great for action shots of dogs, water splashes, low-slung reflections and wide lakescapes. Best at golden hour for warm light and long reflections; weekday mornings are quieter. Small gravel parking off an unnamed road; likely no entrance fee but bring bug spray and water. Shoreline offers low vantage points and open skies for dramatic clouds and sunrises.
