Chinook City Park

Chinook City Park offers a convenient boat launch into Duck Lake, located just 1 mile from downtown Ocean Shores in Grays Harbor County. The park features a dedicated boat ramp with trailer parking, making it an accessible starting point for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboaters. The facility includes a 24-hour portable restroom near the launch area and daytime ADA facilities, along with picnic areas and ample parking for visitors.

Duck Lake itself is a scenic paddling destination surrounded by fir trees and natural habitat. The park connects to a 1.2-mile trail that loops around the lake's edges, offering paddlers and other visitors opportunities to explore the unique Washington forest environment and observe local wildlife. Given its proximity to the Grays Harbor National Wildlife Refuge, the area is excellent for nature-focused paddling trips. Check local ordinances regarding motorized boating restrictions before your visit, as regulations may apply to this water body.
