The Acorn boat ramp at New Hogan Lake offers convenient access to this scenic reservoir in the Sierra Nevada foothills, less than an hour east of Stockton. The ramp is located in the Acorn Recreation Area off New Hogan Parkway, providing a well-developed launch site for canoes, kayaks, and motorized boats.
New Hogan Lake is a popular destination for a variety of water sports, including fishing, water skiing, wakeboarding, and jet skiing. The lake's large surface area provides ample room to enjoy these activities. Anglers can target stripers, bass, crappie, bluegill, and catfish year-round from the boat ramp or shoreline access at nearby campgrounds and trails.
For paddlers, the Acorn boat ramp offers a convenient starting point to explore the scenic lake and its surrounding foothills. Bald eagles are known to winter in the area, and the south shore has been designated as a wildlife viewing zone. Several campgrounds, including Oak Knoll, Deer Flat, and Acorn, are located within 10 miles of the launch site, providing opportunities for extended trips and overnight stays.
