The Saguaro - 2 boat ramp provides access to Saguaro Lake and the Salt River in Tonto National Forest, Arizona. This is one of several public boat launches on the lake, making it easy for kayakers, canoeists, and motorized boaters to access the water.
Saguaro Lake is a scenic reservoir formed by the Stewart Mountain Dam on the Salt River. It's a popular destination for recreational boating, with calm waters and beautiful Saguaro cactus lining the shoreline. Motorized boats are permitted but restricted to a 25 mph speed limit. Paddlers can explore the tranquil upper reaches of the lake for a more serene experience.
Nearby facilities include the Tortilla Campground, which offers reservable campsites. The Goldfield Recreation Area to the northeast is currently closed for development. Boaters should refer to the latest information on conditions and any restrictions before visiting Saguaro Lake.
