Bullock Pen Lake

Bullock Pen Lake is a 134-acre reservoir in Grant County, Kentucky, offering a convenient public boat ramp for kayakers, canoeists, and other boaters. The access point is located on Boat Dock Road in the upper portion of the lake and provides free parking and launching. To reach the site, take I-75 North of Williamstown to Exit 166, head west on KY 2363, then turn left on Violet Road to access Boat Dock Road.

This small impoundment created by damming Bullock Pen Creek in 1963 is well-suited for recreational paddling and fishing. The ramp is situated near the local water department's pump station and provides straightforward access for launching small to medium-sized boats and paddlecraft. The lake's modest size makes it ideal for leisurely day trips and fishing excursions, particularly for paddlers seeking calm water conditions without a long commute from the I-75 corridor.
