About This Access Site
Located in Maurice K. Goddard State Park in New Vernon, Mercer County, this access point on Sandy Creek and Lake Wilhelm offers a well-developed launch facility ideal for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboats. The site features a four-lane boat ramp, courtesy docks, and ample parking with 250 car spaces and 121 dedicated car/trailer spots. A fueling station and marina building are also available on-site, making this a convenient launching point for day trips or longer outings.

The marina operates seasonally from May 1 through October 31 and offers mooring options if you plan extended visits—200 slips in the marina plus 48 dry land mooring spaces. The combination of the ramp's multiple lanes and supporting facilities makes this one of the more accessible and well-equipped launch points on the lake, suitable for both novice paddlers and experienced boaters looking for a reliable departure point.
