This boat ramp facility at Oglesby serves as the primary take-out point for the Vermilion River's popular whitewater paddling section, featuring a launch for boats and rafts plus a parking lot with 16 car spaces and 2 trailer spaces.

Located just downstream from the scenic 9. 5-mile whitewater run from Lowell, the access point provides convenient egress from Class II-III rapids including the notable Wildcat Rapids.

The facility also provides access to the lower Vermilion River for fishing and boating, with the Illinois River just a couple miles downstream.
