About This Access Site
Shreve Lake Wildlife Area offers a public boat ramp for accessing this 58-acre lake in Wayne County, Ohio. The facility features a recently refurbished boat ramp and parking area, making it a convenient launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and small boats. **Note: Electric motors only are permitted on the lake.** The wildlife area also includes a fishing pier and accessible fishing areas, making it suitable for paddlers looking for a calm-water paddling destination.
The 228-acre wildlife area surrounding the lake supports diverse recreation opportunities beyond paddling. The lake is actively managed for fishing, with recent stocking of bluegill, largemouth bass, and catfish. Paddlers should be aware that the lake may periodically experience draw-downs for maintenance purposes, as infrastructure improvements were completed in 2022-2023. This is a good spot for beginner paddlers or those seeking a small, protected water body rather than moving current.
