About This Access Site
Cartwright Park offers a boat ramp for accessing Sunshine Lake, a 30-acre impoundment on Town Creek in Weatherford. This is a well-developed public facility with ample amenities, including 24 picnic tables, three rest stations, a pavilion, paved parking, and a children's play area—making it a good option for families and group outings.

**Key Details for Paddlers & Boaters:** The ramp accommodates small watercraft and is designated for trolling motors only; no large gasoline motors are permitted. This restriction keeps the lake quieter and more suitable for kayakers and canoeists. The park's picnic infrastructure and playground make it convenient for day trips. Sunrise Lake is popular with local anglers, so expect some fishing activity.
