Mcleods Pond Dam, located in Lee County, South Carolina, is a privately owned structure that serves primarily for recreational purposes. Built in 1955, this earth dam stands at 11 feet tall and spans a length of 270 feet. It holds a storage capacity of 97 acre-feet, with a normal storage level of 58 acre-feet and a surface area of 18 acres. The dam is situated on Beaverdam Creek and is under the regulatory jurisdiction of the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control.

Despite its low hazard potential, Mcleods Pond Dam has been assessed to be in poor condition as of November 2017. The dam has undergone inspections periodically, with the most recent one conducted in 2017. The structure is not equipped with a spillway, and there are no associated locks or outlet gates. While the dam poses a low risk, its poor condition highlights the need for ongoing maintenance and potential rehabilitation efforts to ensure the safety and integrity of this important water resource. Enthusiasts of water resources and climate conservation should take note of Mcleods Pond Dam's significance in the local ecosystem and the recreational opportunities it provides.
