About This Access Site
Caney Creek Boat Ramp offers easy access to Lake Texoma, a large reservoir on the Red River along the Oklahoma-Texas border. The ramp is located within the Caney Creek Campground, which is managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

The boat ramp is paved and provides courtesy docks, making it suitable for launching kayaks, canoes, and small motorized boats. The campground offers ample trailer parking nearby. While the ramp itself is free to use, there is a $5 fee to access the larger Caney Creek Recreation Area.

Lake Texoma is known for its excellent fishing, particularly for striped bass, as well as opportunities for boating, swimming, and other water sports. The lake's size and mix of open water and coves make it an appealing destination for paddlers and small boaters looking to explore. Nearby recreation areas like Hagerman National Wildlife Refuge also offer additional options for nature-based activities.
