About This Access Site
Located in Jackson, Jackson County, this county-owned boat ramp on Clear Lake's southeast shore provides a straightforward launch option for kayakers, canoeists, and small boats. The site features a single concrete ramp with a gravel parking lot, making it accessible for vehicles with trailers. A fishing pier is also available at the nearby Lost Dog and Fox Hunters County Park if you're interested in multi-use recreation.

Clear Lake is a modest 652-acre water body with a maximum depth of 8 feet, making it well-suited for recreational paddling and motorboats. The relatively shallow depth means calmer conditions in most weather, though paddlers should always check conditions before launching. The lake offers approximately 3 miles of shoreline to explore, providing a contained paddling environment ideal for beginners and those seeking a relaxed outing.
