Fort Maitland Park features Maitland's only municipal boat ramp providing access to Lake Maitland for both motorized and non-motorized vessels.

The facility includes free car parking (seven days a week), free weekday boat trailer parking with a $25/day weekend fee, restrooms, a playground, and a picnic pavilion.

A valid City of Maitland boat pass is required for motorized vessels, while non-motorized boats (canoes, paddleboards) are permitted free of charge; the park operates 7 a. m. to 10 p. m. daily.
