New Melones Lake (Tuttletown)

The Tuttletown boat ramp provides access to the expansive New Melones Reservoir in Tuolumne County, California. This is one of three boat ramps available at the reservoir, located within the New Melones Lake recreation area.

The ramp features paved parking and a courtesy dock, making it suitable for launching a variety of watercraft, including kayaks, canoes, and motorized boats. Restrooms are also available on-site. Boaters should be aware of changing water levels throughout the year and watch for any submerged hazards.

The New Melones Reservoir is a large, scenic lake impounded by the New Melones Dam. It offers ample opportunities for paddling, fishing, and motorized boating. Paddlers and anglers should familiarize themselves with the reservoir's size, depth, and wind conditions before venturing out. The nearby Red Hills Recreation Management Area also provides additional recreational activities in a day-use setting.
