About This Access Site
Sulphur Creek Marina is a full-service boat ramp facility located in Burkesville, Kentucky, providing access to Dale Hollow Lake and its creek systems including Williams Creek and Riddle Prong. The marina offers a well-maintained launch ramp suitable for kayaks, canoes, and motorboats, along with fuel piers, water, and waste pump-out services. Note that parking is somewhat limited, so arriving early during peak season is advisable.

As part of Dale Hollow Lake—a scenic 27,700-acre reservoir straddling the Tennessee-Kentucky border—this access point opens onto a major recreational waterway ideal for paddlers and boaters seeking both calm lake paddling and creek exploration. The area is located within the Cumberland Plateau and Appalachian Mountains region. Two nearby campgrounds (Lillydale and Willow Grove) offer reservable overnight accommodations for visitors planning a multi-day trip. The facility itself is non-reservable and operates as a day-use boat ramp, making it a convenient launching point for exploring Dale Hollow Lake and its tributary creeks.
