Otter Creek

Otter Creek provides a boat ramp launch point on Lake McConaughy near Lewellen in Keith County. This access site is one of several ramp locations around the lake and is operational when water levels are sufficient. **Important note for boaters: allow an additional 3-4 feet above the ramp's end elevation to ensure adequate clearance and safe launching.** Water levels on McConaughy fluctuate seasonally, so check current lake elevation before planning your trip.

The site offers primitive camping facilities and is conveniently located for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboat users looking to access this large reservoir. Nearby alternatives include Martin Bay and Cedar View ramps if water conditions affect Otter Creek's usability. The area is near the Mormon Pioneer National Historic Trail and provides access to quality fishing opportunities on the lake. Plan ahead by checking current water levels and conditions, as ramp accessibility depends on adequate lake elevation.
