Roland Cooper State Park provides excellent access to the Alabama River and the William "Bill" Dannelly Reservoir, also known as Millers Ferry. The boat ramp offers a convenient launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorized boats to explore this 22,000-acre reservoir and the surrounding river system.
The park is located on the shores of the reservoir, which is known for its abundant game fish populations, including striped bass, white crappie, blue catfish, and channel catfish. Anglers can take advantage of the park's boat launch facilities and host fishing tournaments. The area also offers excellent birding opportunities, with the forested surroundings providing habitat for a variety of avian species.
For those staying at the park, the boat ramp is free to use. The park also features a 9-hole golf course, vacation cottages, picnic areas, and a modern campground, making it a popular destination for a variety of outdoor activities. Boaters and paddlers can expect easy access to the calm waters of the reservoir and the main channel of the Alabama River, which is suitable for skiing, tubing, and swimming.
