Greenwood Shores provides a convenient single-lane boat ramp on Lake Greenwood via Ridge Road in Greenwood County, SC. This access point is ideal for paddlers and boaters looking to explore the wide, flat waters of Lake Greenwood or venture upstream into the Saluda River. However, parking is limited to a small dirt lot, so plan accordingly, especially during peak season.
This location works well as a launch or take-out point for kayakers and canoeists exploring the lake's scenic backcountry. The calm, open water of Lake Greenwood is suitable for paddlers of varying skill levels. Those interested in extending their trip can paddle upstream into the Saluda River. For boaters seeking more amenities, the nearby Greenwood Access Area on Highway 34 offers a two-lane ramp, courtesy dock, and larger paved parking if Greenwood Shores is full or doesn't meet your needs.
