School Creek Boat Ramp is a concrete "washboard" boat ramp located below the low-head dam in Mike Mickelson Park in Estherville, facing upstream.

This access point serves as the starting point for an 8-mile intermediate-level paddle to Peterson Access, offering paddlers and anglers access to a section of the West Fork of the Des Moines River with abundant wildlife including turtles, swallows, waterfowl, and beaver.

Note that the upstream-facing ramp may be challenging in swift water conditions.
