About This Access Site
Armstrong Eddy Park in Beloit provides convenient public access to the Rock River via a dedicated boat ramp. This 4-acre park is well-suited for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboaters looking to launch on the Rock River. The facility includes parking for both vehicles and trailers, making it accessible for day trips and longer paddling adventures.

The park offers amenities beyond the launch itself, including restrooms, picnic tables, grills, and a shelter—helpful for planning a full day on the water. The site is also known for an artesian spring in the park. The Rock River in this area is part of the Rock River National Water Trail system, offering paddlers opportunities to explore an urban waterway corridor. Before visiting, check with Wisconsin DNR resources for current conditions and any specific requirements for this access point.
