Located in Winfield along the West Branch Susquehanna River, this access point features a paved boat ramp with parking for 30+ vehicles, making it convenient for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboaters launching into this popular paddling section. The site is situated near the campground itself, which operates seasonally (April–October) and offers food and electric services within a half-mile, providing useful amenities for day trips or extended outings.
Paddlers should be aware that Rock Bottom Dam is located downstream from this access point and will require portaging depending on your intended route. Cell phone reception is limited in this area due to local topography, so plan accordingly and note that emergency services can be reached at 911 or Barnes-Kasson Hospital (570) 853-3135. This stretch of the West Branch is part of a scenic paddling corridor with multiple bridge landmarks and convenient access points, making it suitable for multi-day trips or shorter day paddles.
