About This Access Site
**Location & Access:** Turner Camp Road Public Boat Ramp is a free public launch facility located at 9460 E. Turner Camp Road in Inverness, FL (Citrus County). This is a well-established access point for the Withlacoochee River, serving kayakers, canoeists, and motorized boaters.

**River Access & Paddling Options:** From this launch site, paddlers can travel in either direction on the Withlacoochee River—north toward Dunnellon or south toward Sumter County. The ramp serves as a popular put-in for the scenic 9.5-mile section between Highway 40 at Rutland and Highway 200 near Stumpknockers. This section offers varied paddling for different skill levels, making Turner Camp Road ideal for day trips and multi-day expeditions.

**Practical Considerations:** As a public boat ramp, this facility accommodates various watercraft types and provides a straightforward launch into the Withlacoochee River. Before heading out, check current water conditions and recent weather, as river conditions can be affected by rainfall and seasonal flows typical of Florida's river systems. The facility is free to use and serves as both a launch point and take-out for paddlers exploring different sections of the river.
