Matthews

The Matthews access site offers a convenient launch point for paddlers and boaters on the Mississinewa River near Fairmount in Grant County. This boat ramp provides straightforward access to the river and is a useful starting or stopping point for canoe and kayak trips on the Mississinewa system.

For trip planning, paddlers should check current water conditions and flow rates before heading out, as river levels can vary seasonally. The site's proximity to other mapped access points along the Mississinewa makes it suitable for shorter day trips or as part of longer paddling routes. Additional amenities and facilities (such as parking, bathrooms, or camping) may be available at nearby areas or through Mississinewa Lake recreation facilities, so it's worth checking regional resources or contacting local management for specific information about services at this particular ramp.
