Otter Slough Conservation Area Access

Otter Slough Conservation Area Access provides boat ramp access to a 4,859-acre wetland area in Stoddard County featuring cypress swamps and oxbow lakes ideal for paddling and fishing.

The area headquarters offers a concrete boat ramp on Otter Slough Lake, with access via gravel road (County Road 675 west of Dexter); boat access to the natural area is best when water levels are up.

Fishing is permitted seasonally (closed starting October 15), motors over 10 horsepower must operate at no-wake speed, and camping is available at designated locations.
