Roosevelt Lake - 8

Roosevelt Lake - Site 8 offers a convenient boat ramp access point along the Salt River arm of Roosevelt Lake. This location is well-suited for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorized boats looking to explore the lake and the upper reaches of the Salt River.

The boat ramp is located approximately 1.5 miles north of the Tonto Basin Ranger District office, off AZ Route 288. Several nearby developed campgrounds, including Burnt Corral, Schoolhouse, and Windy Hill, provide ample accommodation options for those wishing to spend time on the water.

The Salt River flows into Roosevelt Lake at this location, creating a transition zone between the flat, still waters of the lake and the gentle current of the river. Paddlers can expect to encounter a variety of wildlife, including ospreys, herons, and waterfowl, as they navigate the picturesque landscapes. Before launching, boaters should check current lake levels to ensure safe access and operation.
