The facility features a paved launch ramp with a pier, turnaround area, and trailer parking, making it convenient for launching kayaks, canoes, and motorboats.

The Brunet River is a scenic waterway popular with paddlers seeking a mix of flatwater and light current paddling. The access site's amenities—particularly the paved ramp and turnaround—make it suitable for both hand-launched craft and trailer boats. If you're planning to spend more time in the area, nearby camping is available at the North Campground, which offers 45 non-electric campsites in a pine and hardwood forest setting. Check local conditions and water levels before heading out, as seasonal variations can affect paddling difficulty on the river.
