Fort Smallwood Park Boat Ramp

Fort Smallwood Park features a year-round paved boat ramp open 5:30 a. m. to dusk, designed for trailer-mounted boats up to 28 feet in length, with a $10 daily launch fee or annual permits available.

The facility includes a 380-foot fishing pier, two kayak launches (one sheltered near Rock Creek and White Pond), and designated trailer parking spaces that fill on a first-come, first-served basis.

Important note: boats may only launch until 1 hour before park closing, and overnight trailer parking is strictly prohibited.
