Twin Branch is a public boat ramp providing access to the upper portion of Yatesville Lake in Eastern Kentucky. Located off Twin Branch Road (which becomes KY 828) north of Louisa in Lawrence County, this access point serves kayakers, canoeists, and motorboaters looking to explore the 2,242-acre impoundment. The ramp sits approximately 10 miles west of Louisa, making it one of the upper lake access points for those wanting to paddle or fish away from the more developed lower lake areas.
The site offers a convenient launch point for day trips and recreational boating on Yatesville Lake's calm waters. Paddlers can expect typical lake conditions suitable for kayaking and canoeing. The upper lake setting provides opportunities for fishing and wildlife viewing. Be sure to follow directions carefully: from KY 3 north of Louisa, take KY 1, then left onto KY 828 (Twin Branch Road) to reach the ramp. Contact local wildlife or park resources for current conditions, facility amenities, and any seasonal access information before your visit.
