Red Star Access is an 8. 3-acre Missouri Department of Conservation facility featuring an existing boat ramp and parking lot located on Sloan Creek near the Mississippi River, approximately 3/4 mile north of downtown Cape Girardeau.

The ramp closes when the river reaches 33 feet on the Cape Girardeau gauge and is not usable when water levels drop to 8 feet or below, so check current conditions before visiting.

The site connects to the existing riverfront trail via a pedestrian bridge and offers connectivity to planned trails along Sloan Creek and Cape Rock.
