About This Access Site
**Location & Access:** Yates Mill Pond Boat Ramp is located in Westville, Washington County, Florida, and serves paddlers and boaters accessing Yates Mill Pond. To reach the ramp, travel south from I-10 on CR 279 for 4.7 miles, then turn right on CR 280 for 4 miles, and finally right on Yates Mill Pond Road for 0.3 miles to the launch area.

**Facilities & Conditions:** This is a primitive, single-lane ramp with gravel and sand construction. The ramp is designated as a canoe and kayak launch, making it well-suited for paddlers. Limited parking is available on a gravel/dirt surface (approximately 6 spaces for vehicles with trailers). The ramp currently has no dock facilities, and there are no designated handicap-accessible amenities. The facility is in good condition overall.

**Best For:** Kayakers and canoeists will find this launch ideal for accessing the pond's shallow waters. The primitive nature of the ramp and canoe-kayak designation suggest a quieter paddling environment, though anglers also frequent this area for bass fishing. Plan ahead for parking if arriving with a trailer, and bring appropriate footwear for the sandy/gravel surfaces.
