This two-lane boat ramp on the eastern downstream side of Kirkpatrick Dam provides paved access and parking for launching into the lower Ocklawaha River, with nearby restroom facilities and potable water available.

The ramp accesses 8 miles of river downstream to the St. Johns River confluence, suitable for both motorboats and canoe/kayak paddling, with an additional hardened canoe/kayak launch on the western side of the dam.
