Johnson Creek Boat Ramp

Johnson Creek Boat Ramp features a two-lane launch with trailer parking in the day-use area, open year-round at no fee.

The ramp is best suited for small motorboats, canoes, and kayaks, as water depth in the vicinity limits access to larger vessels; it's located approximately three miles through a no-wake zone from the main body of Kinkaid Lake.

The quiet waters are bordered by national forest land, offering pleasant paddling and wildlife viewing opportunities.
