About This Access Site
Guy B. Park Conservation Area offers public access to Tobacco Hills Lake, a 16-acre impoundment near Woodruff in Platte County. The site features a concrete boat ramp suitable for launching kayaks, canoes, and small motorized boats, along with a covered fishing dock and privy facilities. This is a no-motor lake, making it ideal for paddlers seeking a peaceful paddling experience.
The lake is well-stocked with bluegill (managed for trophy-sized fish), largemouth bass, and redear sunfish, making it popular with anglers. Paddlers will find good access to the entire lake, with multiple spots to explore around shoreline cover, creek inlets, and submerged structure. The wooded hillside setting provides scenic surroundings and shaded areas throughout the lake.
**Practical Note:** Contact Missouri Department of Conservation for current regulations, including any largemouth bass slot limits and fishing season details before your visit.
