Briarpatch Lake Access

This route is entirely within the Tuckahoe Wildlife Management Area, a 15,000-acre property bordering the Savannah River. A fishing and/or hunting license is required to legally enter the property and can be obtained via georgiawildlife.com/tuckahoe-wma. Camping is only permitted in one of the two designated camping areas within the property. This route starts from Old River Road and concludes at Briarpatch Lake. There is a small gravel access to the lake, along with ample fishing opportunities along the bank of the lake. The road is very overgrown with very tall grass and has numerous deep mud puddles before reaching the pond. The end of the route is through the swamp and is prone to periodic flooding after heavy rains.
