Hovey Lake Boat Ramp

Hovey Lake Boat Ramp provides access to Hovey Lake and the Ohio River via a dedicated boat launch located at 15000 Highway 69 in Mount Vernon, Indiana.

The ramp enforces a strict 10 mph speed limit on Hovey Lake to protect habitats, and the lake closes to boating from late October to mid-February annually for waterfowl management.

A parking area and restrooms are available at the adjacent public access area, making it a convenient launch point for fishing, kayaking, and canoeing in this scenic oxbow lake surrounded by cypress swamps and bottomland forests.
