Sleightsburgh Park

Sleightsburgh Park offers a free boat launch with deep-water access to Rondout Creek, making it one of the few motorized boat launches in the region (boats up to 23 feet permitted).

The 79-acre park features a concrete ramp with floating dock, fishing platform, and parking for approximately 20 vehicles, though the single-lane gravel access road can become congested during peak fishing seasons; it's also a designated Hudson River Greenway Water Trail site for paddlers.

The park is open dawn to dusk year-round, though vehicle access is currently restricted during winter months, and visitors should note that the access road is subject to flooding and not plowed in winter.
