Calcasieu River Dam — photo spot in 326 River Dam Rd, Oakdale, LA 71463, USA
Calcasieu River Dam
Score7.0Small concrete dam on the Calcasieu River offering strong lines, textured spillways, and reflective water—good for long-exposure waterscapes, abstract patterns and low-angle architectural shots. Best at sunrise or sunset for side-light on the concrete; calm mornings give mirror reflections. Site is roadside-accessible (River Dam Rd) with informal parking; check local signage for access rules and high-water safety. Minimal crowds outside fishing times.
