About This Access Site
**Access & Facilities**
Follins Pond Landing in Dennis offers a free boat launch with parking for approximately 10 vehicles on a first-come, first-served basis. The ramp itself has deteriorated to broken asphalt chunks, which may present challenges for some vessel types—particularly larger boats or those requiring smooth launching surfaces. There is no pier or dock at this location. The site is best suited for smaller boats, kayaks, and canoes.

**Water Conditions & Regulations**
Follins Pond is a freshwater pond where gas-powered engines are prohibited. This makes it an ideal destination for paddlers, offering a quieter experience free from motorized traffic. The pond provides accessible recreation for kayakers and canoeists of varying skill levels. Fuel and provisions are available at nearby gas stations and grocery stores in the Dennis area.

**Nearby Recreation**
The landing provides access to explore a scenic freshwater pond environment. The proximity to Monomoy National Wildlife Refuge (established in 1944 for migratory bird habitat) makes the area valuable for nature-focused paddling and wildlife observation.
