About This Access Site
The Piney South boat ramp provides access to the Tennessee River/Kentucky Lake in Dover, Tennessee. This concrete boat launch is a convenient entry point for kayakers, canoeists, and small powerboats looking to explore the scenic waterways of this region.

Kentucky Lake is a vast reservoir created by the damming of the Tennessee River, offering over 2,000 miles of shoreline and numerous coves and inlets to discover. The river here is wide and slow-moving, making it well-suited for a variety of paddle crafts and motorized vessels. Nearby recreation areas like the Tennessee National Wildlife Refuge and Cross Creeks National Wildlife Refuge provide ample opportunities for wildlife viewing, fishing, and other outdoor pursuits.

While specific details on hours of operation or fees are not available, the Piney South ramp appears to be a public access site maintained for recreational use. Paddlers and boaters should exercise caution, be aware of water conditions, and follow all applicable regulations when launching from and navigating this section of the Tennessee River.
