About This Access Site
**Location & Access:** Located in Marshall County near Lake Texoma, Caney Creek Boat Ramp is a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers facility offering convenient access to the Washita River system. The ramp accommodates boats up to 20 feet and includes a boarding pier for easier launching. This is a reservable Activity Pass facility, and nearby Bridgeview Camp Marina provides additional services and camping options within 10 miles.

**River Conditions & Paddling Considerations:** The Washita River at this location is a large stream (Stream Order 7) with an average flow of 2,645 cubic feet per second and moderate gradient of 4 feet per mile. Water conditions vary seasonally, so paddlers should check current flow conditions before launching. While there are no dedicated boat ramps directly on the river itself, small craft including canoes and jon boats can navigate the Washita. The river offers good bank access around nearby bridge areas and is known for excellent blue catfish fishing. For broader boating options, Lake Texoma—the twelfth largest lake in the U.S.—is nearby and offers diverse recreational opportunities including striped bass fishing.
