About This Access Site
Located in Fort McCoy on the Oklawaha River near Rodman Reservoir, this Marion County-managed access point provides launching for kayaks, canoes, and small watercraft. The ramp features a picnic pavilion and is situated near County Road 21, with the original ramp accessible via a rough service road farther back. A temporary ramp is available during low water periods. The setting offers opportunities to paddle downstream toward the Oklawaha River, with scenic views and abundant wildlife including herons and alligators.

**What to Know Before You Go:** The temporary ramp location has no facilities, so plan accordingly. Water levels can affect access, so conditions may vary seasonally. The area is best suited for paddlers comfortable with wildlife encounters and those interested in downstream paddling trips. Lake Delancy West Campground is located within 10 miles if you're planning an overnight adventure.
