Bagnell Dam Access features two concrete boat ramps at the base of Bagnell Dam on the Osage River and is the most heavily used ramp on the river due to its proximity to the popular tailwater fishery.

The access includes two parking areas and two picnic tables, but users should exercise extreme caution as water levels change drastically in this area—brass markers on the ramp median indicate the low water mark.

This is primarily a boat launch facility rather than a bank fishing area.
