Fern Ridge Shores Marina offers a dedicated boat launch ramp providing access to Fern Ridge Lake near Veneta in Lane County. The facility features a 100-slip marina with modern flotation docks, a protected cove setting with a log boom breakwater for wave protection, and running water available at the docks for rinsing boats. This is the only lakeside RV park at Fern Ridge Reservoir, making it a convenient base for paddlers and boaters seeking both day-use access and overnight accommodations.
The site is well-suited for kayakers, canoeists, and recreational boaters looking for a quieter launch location. In addition to the boat ramp, the facility offers full RV camping amenities and is surrounded by scenic landscape with tall fir trees. The protected marina setting makes this an ideal spot for launching on calmer water, and nearby recreational opportunities include swimming, paddle boarding, and fishing. For paddlers planning an extended trip, Richardson Campground is available within 10 miles as an alternative camping option.
