About This Access Site
Hill Creek Park offers a convenient access point to Lake Tyler via two 2-lane boat ramps located in Whitehouse, just off FM 848. The facility provides ample parking for approximately 50 vehicles, making it suitable for kayakers, canoeists, and larger motorboats. To reach the ramp, take Texas 64 east from Tyler, then turn south on FM 848 and east on South Hill Creek Road.

Lake Tyler is a well-maintained reservoir with 21 miles of lake roadways and regular patrols enforcing safety and water quality regulations. Paddlers should note that Lake Tyler's two connected lakes offer calm water conditions ideal for recreational kayaking and canoeing. The site is located near the marina and dam area, and the city actively monitors the watershed for pollution. This is a solid choice for those seeking a developed access point with good amenities for day trips on the lake.
