About This Access Site
Located in Circleville, this boat ramp provides access to **Hargus Lake, a 145-acre impoundment** that caters well to paddlers and electric-motor boaters. The park maintains one dedicated boat launch ramp along with public docks, making it straightforward to get your kayak or canoe on the water. This is a calm, flat-water paddling destination ideal for recreational paddlers, families, and those seeking a quieter paddling experience without high-speed boat traffic.

The lake operates under electric-motor-only restrictions, which helps maintain the peaceful atmosphere and makes it suitable for paddlers of all skill levels. A concession on the northwest side of the lake offers boat rentals if you need equipment. Beyond paddling, A.W. Marion State Park provides additional amenities including picnic areas, restrooms, a 58-site campground, and swimming areas, making it a good choice for a full day of recreation.
