Little Eagle Lake

Little Eagle Lake, located near Marcella in Humphreys County, MS, offers a boat ramp access point for kayakers, canoeists, and small boaters looking to explore this oxbow lake. As one of Mississippi's largest oxbow formations created by the Mississippi River, Little Eagle Lake provides a scenic paddling destination with relatively calm, protected waters ideal for recreational paddling and fishing. Water levels are managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers through the control structure system, so conditions can vary seasonally.

The ramp is situated in close proximity to important wildlife areas, including Morgan Brake National Wildlife Refuge and Hillside National Wildlife Refuge, making it an excellent launching point for nature observation and wildlife viewing paddling trips. Before heading out, paddlers should check current water conditions and verify the ramp's accessibility, as water levels and seasonal changes can affect launch ease. This is a good location for intermediate paddlers and those seeking a quieter lake experience away from river current.
