About This Access Site
Krodel Park offers a gravel boat ramp providing access to Krodel Lake, a shallow 22-acre impoundment in Point Pleasant. With a maximum depth of 10 feet and average depth of 6 feet, the lake is well-suited for kayaking, canoeing, and recreational boating. The facility includes picnic areas, flushing toilets, and a playground, making it a convenient launching point for paddlers seeking a calm-water outing.

The park operates seasonally from April through October and offers on-site campground facilities (starting at $25/night) for those planning extended stays. For boaters seeking larger waterways, the nearby Ohio River pools provide additional opportunities—the Racine Pool extends 34 miles upriver and is accessible via I-77 to Ripley and US 33 West. Contact Krodel Park at 304-675-1068 for current conditions and facility details.
