**Location & Access:**
Tate - 2 is a boat ramp located in Jabez, Wayne County, providing access to the Cumberland River and Lake Cumberland. The site sits on the 100-mile-long Lake Cumberland reservoir, created by Wolf Creek Dam. This location offers convenient access to both the lake's calmer waters and the Cumberland River's upper reaches.
**Practical Information for Paddlers:**
This ramp is well-positioned for kayakers and canoeists looking to explore Lake Cumberland. The area provides good opportunities for flat-water paddling on the main lake. For those interested in camping, three campgrounds are within 10 miles: Camp Earl Wallace and both Cumberland Point and Fall Creek Campgrounds (the latter two are reservable). The nearby Mill Springs Battlefield National Monument also makes this a good base for combining water recreation with historical exploration.
**Nearby Alternatives:**
If you're exploring other ramps in the area, several other access points exist on the Cumberland River system, including Noes Boat Ramp upstream (better for smaller boats) and Rockcastle Boat Ramp at the confluence of the Rockcastle and Cumberland Rivers.
