Carter Point is a boat ramp providing access to Otter Creek and Lake Cumberland in Wayne County, Kentucky, located near Rabbit Patch. The site is situated on a major recreational impoundment, making it suitable for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboats. To reach the ramp, take US 127 south of Jamestown to State Park Road and continue approximately 4 miles to the boat launch. Handicapped facilities are available at the nearby marina.
This access point offers a convenient entry for paddlers looking to explore the Lake Cumberland system, which provides both open-water and creek paddling opportunities. Kendall Campground is located within 10 miles for those planning overnight trips. Given the lake environment, paddlers should be prepared for variable conditions depending on water levels and weather, and should verify current lake conditions before launching.
