Johnson Creek

The Johnson Creek boat ramp provides convenient access to Lake Texoma, a large reservoir on the Washita River near the Oklahoma-Texas border. This two-lane concrete ramp is suitable for launching all types of watercraft, from kayaks and canoes to larger power boats.

The ramp is located within the Johnson Creek Campground, which offers additional amenities like a dump station, flush and pit toilets, and water and electrical hookups for campers. A courtesy dock is provided to assist with loading and unloading. Ample trailer parking is available on-site.

As a major lake in the region, Lake Texoma is a popular destination for boating, fishing, and other water recreation. Paddlers can explore the lake's coves and inlets, while power boaters will find ample room to cruise. The lake's size and relatively calm waters make it a good option for a range of skill levels. Visitors should review current weather and water conditions before heading out.
