The Davy Crockett State Park boat ramp provides convenient river access to the Nolichucky River in eastern Tennessee. The ramp is located at the south end of the park, near the mouth of Big Limestone Creek. This location makes it easy to launch kayaks, canoes, and small motorized boats during the park's regular operating hours.
The Nolichucky River is a popular destination for paddlers, offering scenic Class I-III whitewater through a rugged, forested gorge. The river is approximately 150 feet wide at this location, with a moderate current. Boaters should be prepared for changing water levels and potential hazards. For those looking to camp, the nearby Old Forge Campground offers reservable sites within 10 miles of the boat ramp.
Visitors can also explore the park's historical and natural attractions, including the Andrew Johnson National Historic Site just a short drive away. The boat ramp provides a useful access point for enjoying the Nolichucky River and the surrounding recreational opportunities in this scenic corner of Tennessee.
