Cathead Landing Santee Cooper Public Lake Access

"It's seems like a place from a quiet movie setting where love is in the air on a summer evening. It's not the greatest spot to watch sunsets. Sunset light and views for photography are beautiful across the water. Dawn is almost majestic as your love for the water is highlighted by a beautiful dawn. It's a small public landing with a private feel where you can take a date and watch the stars. It's when the sun is coming up. That is something everyone should see. Each sunrise is a once in a life time event. They are never the same. Each an original for that days begining. Some have said I took some great pictures. Truth is, all I did was push a button the location at Cathead and Dawn, did all the rest. I could only watch in amazement as a majestic sunrise was unfolding before my eyes. The different stages from dark to sun up are hard to describe in a sentence. One word adjectives are what comes to mind. Such as, beautiful, breath-taking, glorious, stunning, tranquil, invigorating, radiant, golden, art, love, serene, peaceful, it's energy for your soul."

"Very nice two ramp landing with a nice boat dock. I get there early and have witnessed some "hanky panky" but beside that my vehicle and trailer have never been messed with."

"Excellent double ramps, most people are courteous and helpful if any is needed. Only drawback is limited parking. Get there early before the crowd to park close."

"Great little landing! Large cove with a plentiful creek channel running through it. Easy access to the big water of Lake Marian. Very peaceful unless you have to fight the wind by yourself like I did. 12 to 20 mph. It was tough but fun."

"Great place to park and get in the lake! We took the kayaks out so we didn't actually use the boat ramp. It was busy with boats so we just slipped the Yaks in off to the side a bit. We had several nice hours on the lake paddling around the trees. There are a ton of turtles living in the area we were at. So cool!!"
