Dacey Reservoir

Dacey Reservoir offers a rough, unimproved boat ramp in Nye County, Nevada, suitable primarily for small boats, kayaks, and canoes. The ramp is **not recommended for larger trailered boats** due to its unimproved condition. Paddlers should expect a rustic launch area and plan accordingly with smaller, more maneuverable watercraft.

Be prepared for **dense weed beds** that can develop in the reservoir, particularly during certain seasons. These can significantly impede paddling progress and make exit from the launch area challenging, so plan extra time for launching and retrieval. The reservoir and surrounding area attract anglers year-round—rainbow trout fishing is popular in cooler months, and the site offers a quieter, less-crowded paddling experience on weekdays. The surrounding landscape includes marshes and wildlife viewing opportunities, making it a scenic destination for paddlers seeking solitude.
