**Location & Access:** Tappan Park Launch Ramp provides access to the Upper Little Stillwater Creek in Deersville, Harrison County, OH (40.32185445, -81.18415728). The ramp connects to Tappan Lake, a 2,350-acre reservoir popular for recreational boating, fishing, and paddling.
**Facilities & Conditions:** This is a basic boat ramp with limited amenities. Parking can be competitive during peak times, particularly on weekends—plan to arrive early or be prepared to park along nearby roads. There are no facilities directly at the ramp. The lake enforces a 299 horsepower limit, making it suitable for kayaks, canoes, and smaller motorboats. A full-service marina and additional public launch ramps are available elsewhere on Tappan Lake if you need alternative access or services.
**Nearby Recreation:** Tappan Lake offers extensive recreation facilities managed by the Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District. Additional paddling and boating options are available at nearby Piedmont Lake and Salt Fork Lodge State Park. Check the MWC website for current conditions and any seasonal updates before your visit.
