Snake Creek Access

The Snake Creek Access on West Point Lake provides a convenient boat ramp and launch site for kayakers, canoeists, and other small watercraft. Located in Franklin, Georgia, this access point is part of the Yellowjacket Creek Recreation Area managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

The boat ramp is open year-round, allowing access to the Chattahoochee River and West Point Lake. The lake is a large reservoir formed by the West Point Dam, offering ample opportunities for exploration and recreation. Paddlers can expect moderate flows and a relatively flat gradient on this section of the Chattahoochee River. Nearby Brush Creek Campground provides additional amenities and accommodation options for those looking to extend their time on the water.

While the Yellowjacket Creek Recreation Area does have a designated swim beach, it is only open from May through Labor Day annually. For those interested in launching from this site, the main parking area is located near the pavilion, with handicap parking available closer to the boat ramp. Visitors are advised to check with the Corps of Engineers' main office at (706) 645-2937 for any updates or additional information about this access point.
