About This Access Site
Located in Bristol, Morgan County, this boat ramp provides access to Dyes Fork and serves as a gateway to AEP's extensive reclaimed recreation lands. The site is situated within AEP's publicly accessible recreation area, which has been open to the public since the 1960s. This is a solid launching point for kayakers and canoeists looking to explore the waterway in southeastern Ohio.

The ramp appears to accommodate small to medium-sized boats and is part of a larger recreational complex that includes camping facilities and day-use areas. When visiting, follow signs past the state park camping area to reach the boat and beach access. It's advisable to check current conditions and any seasonal restrictions, as some areas within the AEP Recreation Lands may have limited access. Bring adequate fresh water if you're planning an extended stay, and plan to explore the broader property as the recreation area spans significant acreage with multiple facilities.
