Bardwells Ferry Road boat ramp provides public access to the Deerfield River for canoe and kayak paddling, located off Shelburne Center Road near the historic Bardwell's Ferry Bridge.

This is a popular put-in point for paddlers, situated approximately three miles below the #2 station dam, with a scenic two-hour paddle downstream to Stillwater Bridge or Cheapside Bridge in the Greenfield/Deerfield area.

The ramp is part of the Mahican Mohawk Trail water route system and offers access to Class I-II whitewater sections of the river.
