Gilbertville Park offers a boat ramp managed by Black Hawk County Conservation Board with a gravel parking area and adjacent public amenities including a shelter and recreational facilities.

The access point is situated at a lower elevation than nearby Gilbertville Road, making it easy to miss; wayfinding signage is recommended for boaters unfamiliar with the area.

Planned improvements include a separate paddler ramp to distinguish canoe/kayak traffic from motorized boats, expanded parking with bike racks, and accessible staging areas.
