Carnahan

The Carnahan County Park boat ramp provides convenient access to Cullaby Lake and the Skipanon River in Warrenton, located in the scenic Coast Ranges near the Oregon coast. This is a good launching point for kayakers and canoeists exploring the lake and connected waterways. The park offers a standard boat ramp suitable for both trailered and non-trailered boats, making it accessible for a variety of craft sizes.

The ramp provides access to Cullaby Lake, a popular paddling destination, as well as the Skipanon River system. This area is ideal for recreational paddling, fishing, and wildlife viewing, with proximity to the Lewis and Clark National Wildlife Refuge—home to over 27 islands and extensive Columbia River habitat. The setting offers a blend of freshwater paddling opportunities and access to diverse ecosystems typical of the Oregon coastal region.

Note that parking fees may apply during certain seasons, and conditions may vary by time of year. The nearby Lewis and Clark National Historical Park and Wildlife Refuge offer excellent opportunities to combine paddling with exploration of this historically and ecologically significant area.
