About This Access Site
The East Leota ramp provides access to Keith Sebelius Lake, a 1,150-acre reservoir on Prairie Dog Creek in north-central Kansas near Norton. This is part of Prairie Dog State Park and the PSMBP-Almena Unit, offering reliable boating access that's open 24 hours. The site features multiple ramp options to accommodate varying water levels—including two high water ramps and one low water ramp—making it accessible throughout the year.
This is a well-developed access point for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboaters looking to explore the reservoir. Prairie Dog State Park on the north shore provides additional amenities including camping facilities (on a limited basis in six designated areas), hiking trails, and a swimming beach. The lake supports year-round sport fishing with various species available. Before launching, check current water levels to determine which ramp will work best for your watercraft, as water levels can fluctuate seasonally.
