Located near Springhill in Livingston County, this public boat ramp provides access to Indian Creek Community Lake, a 192-acre impoundment created in 1987. From Chillicothe, take Highway 190 west five miles to Route A, then travel north on Route A for five miles to the Route W junction. Continue one mile west on Route A to the conservation area entrance, then turn left on the gravel road to reach the boat ramp.
**What to Expect:**

The site includes a disabled-accessible floating fishing dock, making it convenient for anglers.
