About This Access Site
The Ventris Boat Ramp provides access to Beaver Lake, a popular reservoir in the Ozark Mountains of northwest Arkansas. This concrete boat ramp is well-suited for launching kayaks, canoes, and motorized boats.

Beaver Lake is a scenic, 28,370-acre impoundment of the White River. The lake features clear, cool waters surrounded by towering limestone bluffs and wooded shorelines, making it a popular destination for paddlers and recreational boaters. The Ventris access site is located near several campgrounds, including the nearby Rocky Branch and War Eagle Campgrounds, providing ample opportunities for overnight stays.

While specific amenity and fee information is not provided, boaters can expect basic launch facilities at Ventris. Paddlers should exercise caution on Beaver Lake, as winds and boat traffic can create choppy conditions, especially in the main lake areas. Those seeking a more serene paddling experience may want to explore the lake's coves and inlets. Overall, the Ventris Boat Ramp offers convenient access to explore the natural beauty of Beaver Lake by water.
