Beacon Point offers a public boat ramp on Lake Palestine/Neches River near Frankston in Henderson County. The site features a dedicated boat ramp with a small parking area (approximately 10 vehicle and trailer spaces) on the south side of FM 3504. This is a convenient access point for kayakers and canoeists looking to launch onto the calm waters of Lake Palestine or explore the Neches River system.
**Directions:** From Tyler, take Texas 155 south approximately 10 miles. Turn east on FM 344 toward Teasleville, then right on FM 346 (crossing Chimney Creek Cove), and right again on FM 3504 at the bridge. The ramp and parking area is located 2 miles ahead on the right side of the road.
This access point serves as part of the broader Lake Palestine paddling opportunities and connects to nearby water features like Chimney Creek Cove. The smaller parking capacity makes it best suited for smaller groups or single launches; paddlers with larger groups may want to contact local management for information about peak use times or alternative nearby access points on the lake.
