Camden Landing

Camden Landing provides access to Kentucky Lake, a major impoundment on the Tennessee River near New Johnsonville in Benton County. This is a significant waterway with substantial flow and depth, suitable for various recreational boating activities. The Tennessee River system drains a massive 40,000+ square mile watershed and maintains an average flow of nearly 70,000 cubic feet per second, making it a major navigable waterway. Given the river's size and status as a primary tributary system, this access point serves as an important launch facility for the region.

The Kentucky Lake portion of the Tennessee River at this location offers relatively stable water conditions compared to the faster-moving sections upstream. With the moderate average gradient and significant depth of this impounded section, boaters can expect lake-like conditions suitable for multiple boat types. The location's proximity to New Johnsonville makes it accessible for day-use recreation and provides a gateway to extensive paddling and motorboat opportunities across Kentucky Lake's expansive surface.

Boaters should be aware that while this is an impounded section, the underlying Tennessee River's scale means that water levels can fluctuate seasonally based on dam operations upstream. Typical hazards on large reservoirs include recreational boat traffic and occasional navigation challenges during low water periods. The site's exact amenities and facilities would warrant a visit or phone call to confirm current conditions and available services.
