Goshen Springs

Goshen Springs is a boat ramp providing access to the Ross R. Barnett Reservoir, a major impoundment on the Pearl River near Brandon in Rankin County, Mississippi. The reservoir offers a significant water body for recreational boating, with relatively calm lake conditions typical of impounded waters. The Pearl River system drains a substantial 8,325 square mile watershed and maintains an average flow of over 13,000 cubic feet per second, indicating consistent water levels suitable for year-round recreation.

The ramp is positioned on a major river system with significant depth and flow characteristics. Boaters should be aware that while the reservoir itself typically provides calm water conditions, the underlying Pearl River has substantial current and flow rates. The site provides access for multiple boat types and recreational activities on one of Mississippi's most important waterways.
