About This Access Site
The River Lodge boat ramp provides access to the Colorado River in San Bernardino County, California. This major river system is over 1,700 km long and has an average flow of 14,295 cubic feet per second, making it suitable for a variety of watercraft.

The ramp is part of the River View Day Use Area, which offers picnic tables and other amenities. There are two boat ramps - a dirt "small craft" ramp and a newer, wider concrete ramp. Boaters and paddlers can use the grassy area between the ramps to launch and retrieve their vessels. Nearby campgrounds and recreation areas like the Copper Basin Dunes OHV Area offer additional opportunities for river-based recreation.

While the site is open for day use, it does not have overnight camping. Visitors are advised to check current conditions, as river flows and water levels can vary. Overall, the River Lodge ramp provides an access point for kayakers, canoeists, and other small boaters to explore this iconic western river.
