McCormick Park

**Location & Access**
McCormick Park is located on Idaho Highway 71, approximately 29 miles northwest of Cambridge, Idaho, on the Idaho side of Oxbow Reservoir. The nine-acre park offers a boat ramp and dock for accessing both Oxbow Reservoir and the Snake River. Day use is free, and the park features well-maintained grounds with plenty of shade trees.

**Boating & Fishing Opportunities**
Oxbow Reservoir spans 13 miles and provides excellent fishing for bass, crappie, bluegill, and trout, with the same species available in the Snake River adjacent to the park. The facility's boat ramp and dock make it a convenient launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboaters looking to explore the reservoir or access the Snake River. The park's peaceful setting and free day-use access make it an attractive option for a half-day or full-day paddling trip.
