About This Access Site
Prizer Point Marina offers public boat access to Lake Barkley, a major impoundment of the Cumberland River located near Cadiz in Trigg County. This is a developed facility with amenities including a boat ramp and marina store, making it a convenient launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboats. The site is part of Lake Barkley State Park and provides access to both the main lake and the Little River watershed.

As a lake-based access point rather than a flowing river launch, Prizer Point is well-suited for paddlers of all skill levels seeking calmer water conditions. The facility appears to operate seasonally and offers support services nearby. Paddlers should note the marina location on the left side of the ramp for additional services and information. Lake Barkley also provides proximity to other regional attractions including Land Between the Lakes and Fort Donelson National Military Park, making it a good base for exploring the broader area.
