About This Access Site
Boat Launch Road provides a convenient put-in point on the Penobscot River in Eddington, offering paddlers and boaters access to both upstream and downstream sections of the river. From this location, kayakers and canoeists can paddle upstream toward the river's confluence with the Seboeis River, or head downstream toward Whetstone Falls and the main stem of the Penobscot. The facility includes a boat ramp, parking lot, and vault toilet located across Seboeis Road—unload your gear at the ramp before parking in the designated lot.
The Penobscot River accommodates a variety of small to medium-sized watercraft, including canoes, kayaks, motorboats, and fishing boats, though specific restrictions may apply in certain areas (such as no-wake zones). This well-maintained access point serves as a good base for exploring the scenic stretches of the river in the Eddington area. For specific questions about regulations, seasonal conditions, or facility details, contact the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife at 207-287-4952.
