About This Access Site
The Neosho River boat ramp at Council Grove Marina provides access to the Neosho River in Morris County, Kansas. This is a major river system with significant flow (averaging over 10,000 cubic feet per second) and moderate gradient (2.1 ft/mile), making it suitable for various watercraft. The ramp is part of the Council Grove Lake recreation area, offering convenient access to the river near the historic town of Council Grove, the birthplace of the Santa Fe Trail.

This facility is ADA accessible with handicap-accessible sidewalks and a dedicated boat ramp for launching kayaks, canoes, and motorized boats. The Neosho River at this location is fed by upstream tributaries and flows through a landscape of mixed rocky shoreline and mudflats. Paddlers should be prepared for the river's moderate current and plan accordingly for the water conditions typical of a major river system.
