The Lake Lawrence boat ramp is located at the southwest end of the lake at the end of Pleasant Beach Drive in Yelm, Thurston County. This public access point is managed by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife and offers a convenient launch for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboats year-round. The facility was recently renovated with grant funding to include new ADA-accessible boat ramps and restrooms, making it a well-maintained option for water access in the area.
The ramp provides parking and modern facilities to support a variety of paddling activities. The site is adjacent to undeveloped Thurston County land, offering a quieter natural setting for launching. This is a good option for those seeking reliable, accessible lake access in the Yelm area, though paddlers should check current conditions and water levels before visiting.
