About This Access Site
**Location & Access:**
Bethy Creek Resort is a privately operated boat ramp on Lake Livingston in Walker County, Texas. The ramp is conveniently located on Texas Highway 19 north of Riverside—look for it on the right side before the bridge. From Trinity, take Highway 356 south for 8 miles and turn right at the resort sign. This location provides direct access to Lake Livingston and the Trinity River arm of the reservoir.

**Amenities & Services:**
Beyond the boat ramp itself, Bethy Creek Resort offers waterfront lodging, RV facilities, and monthly boat storage options for those planning extended stays. As a private facility, amenities and fees may differ from the area's free public ramps. The surrounding area has numerous recreation options, including Lake Livingston State Park nearby, which offers camping and day-use facilities. Lake Livingston itself covers over 90,000 acres and is well-known for white bass, catfish, and other game fish populations.

**Water Conditions:**
Paddlers and boaters should note that Lake Livingston is a large reservoir (90,000+ acres) rather than a flowing river, making it suitable for both motorboats and paddled craft. For those interested in river paddling, the Trinity River arm provides an alternative to open-water paddling. Consider contacting the resort directly for current conditions, specific amenities, and fee information before your visit.
