About This Access Site
Located near Huxley in Shelby County, the FM 2694 access site provides boat ramp access to Toledo Bend Reservoir on the Sabine River. The ramp is reached by traveling east on FM 2694 from Shelbyville (approximately 15 miles), then turning south on FM 3172 for 1 mile, and finally east on FS100A for 2 miles to the ramp entrance. The facility features a two-lane ramp capable of handling all boat types and is open year-round. A day-use fee is required, and the site is operated by private concession; contact (936) 368-2495 for current information on hours and fees.

The Sabine River is a major waterway with significant water flow (averaging over 9,100 cubic feet per second) and a gentle gradient of approximately 0.8 feet per mile. At Toledo Bend Reservoir, paddlers and boaters will encounter a large impoundment rather than active river current, making it suitable for kayaking, canoeing, and recreational boating. Given the reservoir's size and the Sabine River's substantial drainage basin (nearly 9,600 square miles), expect variable water conditions and plan accordingly with proper safety equipment and awareness of weather changes.
