Eagle Point Park in East Grand Forks offers a concrete boat ramp with dock access to the Red Lake River, making it a convenient launch point for kayaks, canoes, and motorboats. The ramp is operated by the city and accommodates a range of watercraft and skill levels. A kiosk and wayside area are located to the left of the launch, and carriage roads with compact gravel surfaces are accessible from both sides of the ramp—note that metal gates mark these access points and should not be blocked.
