Island Lane provides public boat access to Lake Ripley in Cambridge, located in Jefferson County. This site features a public pier and boat ramp maintained by the Town of Oakland's Public Works Department. A $7.00 daily use fee is required and can be paid at a self-registration kiosk on-site. Seasonal passes are available for purchase at Cambridge BP Gas, Cambridge Piggly Wiggly, and Oakland Town Hall for those planning frequent visits.
**Important Regulations:** Motorized boats are prohibited from operating between sunset and sunrise. Power loading (operating motors while loading/unloading from trailers) is not permitted. Note that fishing and swimming are strictly prohibited from the ramp and pier areas. Kayakers and canoeists will find this site suitable for paddling on the lake, though users should check current conditions and tide information before launching.
