Otter Slough Conservation Area Access provides boat ramp access to Otter Lake and the surrounding cypress/tupelo swamp in Stoddard County.

The area features a concrete boat ramp at the headquarters location, with motors over 10 horsepower required to operate at slow, no-wake speeds.

Access is best by boat when water levels are adequate, and visitors should register at area headquarters before hunting or fishing; note that the area closes to fishing October 15 and has seasonal waterfowl refuge closures.
