Cedar Creek Lake Lower

**Cedar Creek Lake Lower** is a public boat launch located in Stanford, Lincoln County, providing access to Cedar Creek Lake, Kentucky's newest impoundment. The ramp is situated off Kentucky Highway 1770 west of Crab Orchard—turn north on Cowan Road and follow it to its end. This is one of three boat ramps serving the approximately 792-acre lake, making it a convenient launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboats.

Cedar Creek Lake offers a sheltered paddling environment ideal for recreational boating and fishing. The lake features a generous 300-foot buffer zone established by the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources, which protects shoreline access throughout the lake and allows anglers to fish the entire perimeter. The calmer waters make this an accessible option for paddlers of various skill levels seeking a scenic paddling destination in the Cumberland Plateau region.
