Bordered on both sides by the Clemson Experimental Forest, this section is very beginner friendly. This section is the upper reach of Lake Hartwell where the Twelve Mile River enters the lake. Paddling conditions are flatwater.
A small off-road parking area and limited roadside parking are available upstream of the road, on river-right. A 500-foot trail leads to a small sandy beach along the lake. The future location for Madden Bridge Park is downstream of the bridge, river-right, opening in 2018. Do not consume fish caught in the Twelve Mile River and upper reaches of Lake Hartwell due to a PCB Advisory still in effect.
Managed by the US Army Corps of Engineers, the park has a boat launch, playground, picnic shelters, and restrooms. Swimming at your own risk is allowed and fishing is permitted. Parking fee of $4.
