Stillinger Lake Dam, located in Orangeburg, South Carolina, was completed in 1987 and serves as a private recreational area for water and climate enthusiasts. The dam, standing at 28 feet tall and stretching 250 feet in length, holds a maximum storage capacity of 300 acre-feet and a normal storage of 225 acre-feet. The dam overlooks the TR-North Fork Edisto River, offering a serene environment for outdoor activities such as fishing, boating, and wildlife observation.
Despite its high hazard potential, Stillinger Lake Dam is deemed to be in fair condition as of the last assessment in October 2019. The dam is inspected biennially by the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC) to ensure its structural integrity and safety for the surrounding community. With a designated emergency action plan and emergency contacts in place, the dam is prepared to handle any unforeseen events and maintain the safety of its visitors. As a vital water resource and recreational spot in the region, Stillinger Lake Dam remains a significant landmark for both locals and tourists to enjoy the natural beauty of South Carolina's landscape.
