About This Access Site
**Location & Access:** Eddy Pond Boat Ramp is located in Auburn, Worcester County, MA, offering a convenient launch point for paddlers and boaters. The ramp features a small concrete launch pad system suitable for kayaks, canoes, and smaller recreational boats. **Note:** The ramp is designated for boat trailers only and this restriction is actively enforced, so plan your vehicle accordingly.

**Nearby Recreation:** The access site places you near several excellent paddling and outdoor destinations. Hodges Village Dam, just a short drive away, offers additional canoe launches with access to over 15 miles of maintained trails along the French River (both above and below the dam). Buffumville Lake, a 200-acre recreation area, is also nearby and provides expanded recreational opportunities for water sports enthusiasts.

**What to Expect:** This is a modest, practical access point ideal for launching smaller vessels into Eddy Pond. The concrete pad system accommodates typical kayak and canoe launching. Given its location in the Blackstone River Watershed, you'll find yourself in a well-managed recreational area with multiple paddling options in the region.
