Sutherland Reservoir State Recreation Area - Hershey Beach

Hershey Beach offers a well-maintained boat ramp access point at Sutherland Reservoir in Lincoln County, Nebraska. The ramp has been recently improved with erosion repairs and rock riprap reinforcement along both sides to ensure stable launching conditions. This is one of three boat ramps available at the reservoir, making it a reliable option for kayakers, canoeists, and all types of recreational boaters.

The reservoir welcomes all vessel types and provides convenient access via boat ramps and docking facilities. The ramp operates year-round weather permitting, though visitors should check current conditions before heading out, especially during winter months or after heavy rainfall. In addition to water recreation, the area offers hunting opportunities and shooting ranges, making it a multi-purpose state recreation area. This location is ideal for paddlers seeking a accessible launch point into the reservoir.
