Woodson Pond Dam, located in Anderson, South Carolina, is a privately owned earth dam that was completed in 1959 for the primary purpose of recreation. The dam stands at a height of 27 feet and has a length of 770 feet, creating a reservoir with a storage capacity of 318 acre-feet. The dam regulates Craven Creek and has a controlled spillway to manage water flow. Despite its fair condition assessment in 2017, the dam has a low hazard potential but is classified as having a very high risk due to its age and potential impact on downstream areas in case of failure.

Woodson Pond Dam is under state regulation by the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (SC DHEC) and undergoes regular inspections every five years. With its location in a picturesque setting, the dam offers recreational opportunities for visitors to enjoy the surrounding natural environment. The dam's risk management measures and emergency preparedness plans are not currently documented, highlighting the need for ongoing monitoring and maintenance to ensure the safety and integrity of the structure for both water resource and climate enthusiasts who frequent the area.
