A venerable oak limb frames the house at Loch Dhu Plantation, located on the shores of Lake Marion near the town of Cross. A portion of the original property was submerged when Lake Marion was created by Santee Cooper in the early 1940s.

To learn more about the history of Lake Marion, including information about the homes, plantations, schools, churches, and cemeteries that were lost during its creation, please see our guide to Lake Marion history.

Special thanks to Barry Gooch of Charleston for sharing this rare glimpse of Loch Dhu with the South Carolina Picture Project. Mr. Gooch took the photo in February 2008.
