About This Access Site
The Flint Creek 67 boat ramp provides easy access to the Tennessee River's Wheeler Lake in Decatur, Alabama. This concrete launch is located on the east shore of Flint Creek, just off Highway 67. The ramp and adjacent paved parking area make it a convenient access point for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorized boats.

Flint Creek and the surrounding Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge offer a tranquil setting for paddlers to explore the calm, flat waters of this section of the Tennessee River. This area is well-suited for a relaxed day trip, with opportunities to view diverse wildlife along the shorelines and in the backwater areas. Flint Creek Canoe and Kayak Rental can provide rental equipment and shuttle services for those looking to enjoy a longer paddling adventure.

For anglers, the Flint Creek 67 ramp is one of two public access points to the Tennessee River in this region, the other being the Flint Creek Access Area off Highway 31. Boaters and anglers can expect moderate to light boat traffic on this portion of Wheeler Lake, which is part of the larger Tennessee River system.
