About This Access Site
Sheep Creek Bay offers convenient boat access to the Flaming Gorge Reservoir, a large and scenic alpine lake on the Utah-Wyoming border. The boat ramp provides an easy way for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorized boats to launch onto the calm waters of the reservoir.

The ramp is located within the Sheep Creek Boat Launch Area, which has a small campground nearby. Facilities include vault toilets and ample parking. From the boat ramp, it's a short paddle to the Flaming Gorge Dam, a prominent landmark on the reservoir. The reservoir is popular for fishing, boating, and exploring the rugged canyon scenery. Boaters should be prepared for changeable mountain weather and be aware of water levels, which can fluctuate depending on dam operations.

For those looking to spend more time on the water, there are several other campgrounds and boat launches located around the Flaming Gorge Reservoir within a short drive of Sheep Creek Bay. These include the Hideout Canyon Boat-In Campground and the Lucerne Campground, which offer additional access points and amenities.
