Lake August Public Boat Ramp, located on the north shore at 1634 Washington Boulevard NW, features a single boat ramp and adjacent seawall for bank fishing, with parking for approximately a dozen vehicles and trailers on a first-come, first-served basis.

The ramp accommodates small trailered boats such as canoes, kayaks, and flat-bottom boats, though shallow water depths (2-3 feet in the central basin) limit navigation for larger vessels.

Be respectful of the surrounding residential community, as this lake transitioned to public access only in January 2014.
