Sure, you can go all the way to Pinopolis Lock and into Moultrie Lake if you want to.

How big is your boat? You can cut into goose creek (technically still Cooper River) and take it all the way under the North Rhett bridge right past Yeamans Hall and all the way towards the resovoir. We put our boat in around Yeamans Hall (private ramp) and take it all the way to the Cooper all the time.

I'd defer to these other posters, but I looked at a map where the cooper meets the reservoir and there's some structure there. I can't tell what it is, but if it isn't raised up so you can go under it, it doesn't appear that one could navigate the river to the reservoir. There's some sort of spillway or something next to this structure - but given that the satellite view shows breaking water, it might be too shallow to cross:

Maybe now I'm just curious. So how does someone navigate through that?

I don't think you can get into the reservoir from that way, but you can get up to it. I'm not sure what the OP was looking for

I've never done it myself, but I've always heard you could.



Yeaman's Hall is before that navigating upstream.

If you look to the far north edge of that man-made item, it appears to be a spillway of some sort.

Its called Goose Creek that runs off of the Cooper river. It has a dam at the small lake but I cant remember what the name of the fresh water lake is behind Trident Tech off of Rivers ave..

The government has restrictions on that creek so be careful.
