Boater Reviews
favorite boat ramp in the area. Parking is never a problem. Have a pier for fishing and at low tide up to mid tide, plenty of walkable beds to fish from too, or look for shark teeth. Only reason it's not 5 stars is lack of.trash cans or recycling bins. I'll be putting my boat in there, and I fish there most days
Nice spot to see the sunset! Views are great here! Also, nice area to drop the boat. Kind of a pain to get out, but timing is everything here!
Stopped by to fish (small aluminum pier) while waiting for boat to get serviced. Had a nice boat launch with 4 lanes. Plenty of parking, and room to turn around trailers. Easy accessibility from RT 17. Small landscaping rocks spread on river bank makes for easy mess free access to launch kayaks too.
Easy access, plenty of truck and trailer parking. Three separate docks for boaters. Also, there's a pier available for land based fishermen, but it isn't an extremely big pier.
I would be happier if some visitors didn't throw their trash in the marsh. Nice big boat landing on the river with a small fishing pier.
