About This Access Site
The Turkey Creek boat ramp provides access to Little River and Pine Creek Lake in the Ouachita Mountains of southeastern Oklahoma. This is a relatively small access site, with a single concrete boat ramp and limited parking.

The Little River flows into the 3,750-acre Pine Creek Lake, which offers good opportunities for kayaking, canoeing, and motorized boating. The river itself is generally calm and slow-moving, making it well-suited for paddlers of all skill levels. However, water levels can fluctuate, so it's a good idea to check conditions before launching.

Facilities at the Turkey Creek site are limited to the boat ramp and a small picnic area. There are no services like restrooms or a marina. Campsites are available at the adjacent Turkey Creek Park, but the boat ramp and day-use area may be closed at times. Boaters and paddlers should plan accordingly and come prepared for a self-reliant experience on the water.
