About This Access Site
This state-owned boat ramp in Belgrade offers excellent access to Great Pond, a popular recreational destination nestled among wooded, rolling hills and farmland in the Belgrade Lakes region. The hard-surface ramp is 50 feet long and 20 feet wide with a 12% grade, suitable for launching kayaks, canoes, and shallow-draft boats. The facility includes a boarding float for easier entry and exit, making it convenient for paddlers of all experience levels.
The launch area provides ample parking with 15 trailer spaces plus additional vehicle parking, along with on-site toilet facilities. Great Pond is a heavily used water body popular for both paddling and fishing, making this a reliable access point for exploring the lake. Note that paddlers should check current water quality advisories before launching, as cyanobacteria alerts have been issued in the region.
