This earth dam with a buttress core serves primarily for recreation purposes, providing a storage capacity of 276 acre-feet. The dam overlooks Brushy Creek and offers a serene setting for water resource and climate enthusiasts to enjoy the surrounding natural beauty.
Although the dam has not been state regulated or inspected since 1975, it remains in a not rated condition with a high risk assessment level of 2. With no spillway type and limited hazard potential data available, the dam's emergency action plan status and risk management measures are also not documented. Despite these uncertainties, Manning Club Lake Dam continues to be a picturesque destination for outdoor activities and environmental appreciation in the Galveston District.
As a private-owned structure, Manning Club Lake Dam may lack some of the oversight and maintenance seen in federally managed dams. However, its historical significance and recreational value make it a noteworthy site for water and climate enthusiasts seeking to explore the diverse water resources of Texas. The dam's location in a tranquil setting, overlooking Brushy Creek, further adds to its appeal for those interested in nature and conservation efforts.
