About This Access Site
Tom Jackson Park Boat Ramp provides convenient access to Guntersville Lake, part of the Tennessee River, in Guntersville, Alabama. This is a popular launch site for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorized boats.

The ramp is easily accessible by car, located just off Highway 431. It features a single concrete boat ramp that extends into the lake, with a dock on each side to assist with launching and loading. Parking is available nearby, though the exact number of spaces may vary. This access point is well-suited for paddlers and small boaters looking to explore the scenic Tennessee River and Guntersville Lake.

Guntersville Lake is a large reservoir covering over 69,000 acres, with an average depth of 25 feet. The lake is known for its calm waters, making it a great destination for kayaking, canoeing, and other quiet, non-motorized watercraft. Boaters should be aware of boat traffic, particularly in the main channel, and pay attention to any local rules or regulations that may be in place.
