Boat Ramps

Located on both the north and south sides of the reservoir, both ramps have docks and are available for use depending upon existing water levels. Mandatory boat inspections for aquatic nuisance species are required for all boats using the ramp each time the vessel is launched.

Only the following vessels are permitted after October 31st: Kayaks, Canoes, Rafts, Belly Boats, Windsurfer Boards (including Paddle Boards), Sailboards, and Float Tubes.

Boating is still only allowed from one half hour before sunrise to one half hour after sunset.
