River Run RV Resort offers boat ramp access to the Choctawhatchee River in Washington County, Florida. The access point is located in a park setting on a small bluff overlooking the river. The ramp is a long, steep single-lane concrete launch. Note that water levels can significantly affect usability—the ramp becomes very shallow at low river levels, so checking current conditions before your trip is recommended.
The Choctawhatchee River is a major waterway (Stream Order 8) with a drainage area of 4,527 square miles and an average flow of 7,754 cubic feet per second. The river features a gentle average gradient of 1.1 feet per mile, making it generally manageable for recreational paddlers and boaters. With 143 miles to the Gulf of Mexico from this access point, the river offers extended paddling and cruising opportunities for kayakers and canoeists seeking longer trips through the Florida Panhandle.
