Betty's Island Boat Ramp provides access to the Caney Fork River below Center Hill Dam. This site is part of the larger Center Hill Lake recreation area, managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
The boat ramp offers a convenient launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorized boats to explore the Caney Fork River. The river in this area is relatively wide and slow-moving, making it well-suited for leisurely floats and paddles. Depending on water release levels from Center Hill Dam upstream, the river's character can vary from placid to swifter currents, so paddlers should check conditions before launching.
Nearby facilities include the Center Hill Lake Primitive Camping Areas, which provide reservable campsites within 10 miles. Visitors to the broader Center Hill Lake region can also enjoy recreation at Cordell Hull Lake and Burgess Falls State Natural Area. While an official description of access site amenities is not available, the boat ramp likely offers basic parking and launching capabilities for day-use visitors.
