About This Access Site
The Birch South Livery provides convenient access to Pymatuning Reservoir, a large 17,088-acre impoundment in northwestern Ohio near Andover. This boat ramp location is well-suited for kayakers, canoeists, and recreational boaters looking to launch on a relatively calm, expansive flatwater body. The site is conveniently located near boat rental services, including kayak rentals, making it accessible for visitors without their own equipment.

The reservoir is known for excellent fishing opportunities, with abundant walleye, bass, crappie, perch, bluegill, and catfish populations. Paddlers will find the water generally suitable for leisurely touring and fishing. The park offers additional amenities including a nearby swimming beach with bathhouse facilities and showers. For those planning longer visits, Pymatuning State Park provides camping and picnic areas throughout the region. Note that ADA-accessible boat launches are available at nearby Jamestown Marina and Manning Boat Launch if needed.
