About This Access Site
Eagle Lake RV Park offers a boat ramp for accessing Eagle Lake, a large mountain lake in northeastern California. The ramp is suitable for launching kayaks, canoes, and small trailered boats. However, it's important to note that the access can be challenging, as the ramp may have shallow water levels at times. Larger boats may have difficulty using this site.

For paddlers, the lake provides a scenic setting surrounded by pine forests. Eagle Lake is approximately 16 miles long and 5 miles wide, with a surface elevation of 5,100 feet. The lake is known for its trout fishing, with a mix of rainbow, brown, and lake trout. Nearby campgrounds, like the Christie Campground and Merrill Campground, offer convenient options for those looking to explore the lake by boat or paddle craft.

While the Eagle Lake RV Park ramp provides a public access point, boaters and paddlers should be prepared for potential low water conditions and plan accordingly. As with any outdoor recreation, it's important to practice Leave No Trace principles and respect the natural environment.
