**Location & Access**
Patrician Oaks Public Boat Ramp is located on Patrician Oaks Road (off NE Lantana Road/US 27) near Branford in Lafayette County, providing public access to the Suwannee River. The facility features one unpaved launch lane with shoulder parking available. There is no launch fee.
**Facilities & Amenities**
This is a basic access point with limited amenities. Parking is shoulder-parking only with limited spaces, and the facility closes at dark. A boardwalk and swimming area are available on-site, and handicap parking is provided. The unpaved surface means conditions may vary seasonally, so check local weather before launching.
**Paddling Information**
Patrician Oaks serves as a convenient put-in or take-out for paddlers exploring the upper Suwannee River. It's located approximately 3 miles from Ruth Springs Launch upstream and about the same distance from other local access points, making it useful for planning multi-day paddles or shorter day trips on this scenic section of the river. The Suwannee River Water Management District maintains information on regional paddling routes if you need trip-planning assistance.
