About This Access Site
Cedar Creek offers a boat ramp access point on Outlet Cedar Creek in Lyman County. This site provides launch access for kayakers, canoeists, and small boats looking to paddle or fish the outlet creek system. The access area is located behind an island on river right before the main Cedar Creek confluence—look for a gravel point marker and stay to the right of it when entering.

**Important Notes for Paddlers:** Be aware that this entrance has been experiencing sand and tree accumulation since a new mouth cut through the bank, so proceed with caution and scout conditions before launching. Water levels can fluctuate, which may affect launch difficulty. Multiple launch options exist in the area at both public ramps and private marinas, though some private facilities may be challenging to use during low-water periods. Check current conditions before your trip, as creek access can be affected by seasonal water flow and debris.
