About This Access Site
Edgar Evins State Park offers two boat ramps providing access to the scenic Caney Fork River and Center Hill Lake. This large reservoir is popular with kayakers, canoeists, and motorized boaters alike.

The ramps are located within the state park, which features a visitor center, campground, and other recreational amenities. The ramps themselves are steep and rocky, so caution is advised when launching and loading boats. There are no boat rentals or marina services at the state park ramps, but the nearby Center Hill Marina does offer these options.

For paddlers, the Caney Fork River provides a calm, scenic flatwater experience. The lake is quite large, spanning over 18,000 acres, so there are ample opportunities to explore coves and inlets. Be aware that wind and boat traffic can create choppy conditions on the open water. Overall, the Edgar Evins State Park boat ramps offer a convenient access point to enjoy the natural beauty of Center Hill Lake and the Caney Fork River.
