This hand launch provides access to the South Branch Grass River, a challenging whitewater paddling destination considered one of the best kayaking opportunities in the northeast. The launch is located at the end of a 0.

2-mile seasonal access road off State Route 3 and serves as the furthest upstream put-in site; note that this section of river is very rocky, though a 2-mile carry along the former Grass River Railroad can bypass this area.

Multiple rapids and falls with designated portage trails are located downstream, making this site suitable primarily for experienced paddlers.
