**Location & Access**
Fort Cassin is a boat ramp located at 775 Fort Cassin Road in Ferrisburg, Vermont, providing access to both Lake Champlain and Otter Creek at the creek's mouth. The site offers a well-protected launch area that is particularly suitable for smaller boats and paddlers seeking calmer water conditions.
**Best For**
This access point is ideal for kayakers and canoeists looking for a sheltered launch on Lake Champlain's western shore. The protected waters at the mouth of Otter Creek make it a good choice for those wanting to avoid open water conditions. Paddlers can explore either up Otter Creek or out onto Lake Champlain depending on their skill level and distance preferences.
**Facilities & Notes**
The ramp was recently renovated (October 2020 - November 2021) with removal and installation of a new launch facility. For current information on amenities, parking, and any access fees or hour restrictions, contact local Vermont Parks and Recreation offices or check the site directly before visiting.
