Big Eddy offers a gravel boat ramp with approximately a dozen parking spots and serves as a popular put-in for motorboaters and a takeout point for floaters coming from upstream access points.

The site features a small sandy/rocky beach area and is maintained by West Virginia DNR, though caution is advised as the deep water creates a large pool backed up by Little Falls rapids located downstream.

This is an ideal location for fishing, wading, and rock-skipping, with 8 river miles of upstream water available for exploration.
