The Bedias Creek boat ramp provides public access to Wilson Slough in Madison County, Texas. Located off FM 247 (accessible via FM 2821 from US 75 North near Huntsville), this is a small public launch facility suitable for kayaks, canoes, and small boats. The ramp serves as an entry point to Wilson Slough, which connects to the broader Trinity River system in the area.
Paddlers should be aware that water levels fluctuate significantly with rainfall, as Wilson Slough can back up behind Lake Livingston during heavy precipitation events. This makes conditions variable depending on the season—higher water levels provide better access, while low-water periods may present challenges. The surrounding area offers creek frontage and opportunities to explore the slough system, though conditions can change rapidly. Check current water levels before launching and be prepared for variable conditions typical of coastal Texas waterways.
