About This Access Site
**Location & Access:** The Sawmill boat ramp provides access to upper Beaver Creek near Monticello in Wayne County, Kentucky. To reach the site, take KY-90 west of Monticello, turn right on KY-1546, then right on Beaver Creek Church Road. Alternatively, from I-64 exit 133, head south on KY-801 (which merges into KY-1274), then turn left onto Beaver Creek Boat Ramp Road.

**What to Expect:** This is a boat ramp access point on Beaver Creek in the Lake Cumberland system, located in the Cumberland Plateau region of the Appalachian Mountains. The site is suitable for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboats. Paddlers should note this is the upper section of Beaver Creek, which may offer different conditions than lower portions near the main lake. Water levels and flow can vary seasonally, so conditions should be checked before paddling.

**Nearby Amenities:** Two campgrounds are located within 10 miles—Fall Creek Campground (which offers reservations) and Camp Earl Wallace—making this a convenient base for extended paddling trips or weekend outings on Beaver Creek and Lake Cumberland.
