About This Access Site
Waterloo Riverside is a popular boat access point for kayakers, canoeists, and motorized boaters on Pickwick Lake along the Tennessee River. This concrete boat ramp provides easy access to the expansive waters of Pickwick Lake, which stretches for over 50 miles along the Tennessee River.

Pickwick Lake is a large reservoir known for its scenic beauty and excellent fishing opportunities. The lake is typically 2-3 miles wide, with an average depth of 30-50 feet. The flow of the Tennessee River through the lake is relatively calm, making it well-suited for a variety of watercraft. Paddlers can explore the lake's many coves and inlets, while powerboaters can enjoy water skiing, wakeboarding, and cruising.

The Waterloo Riverside boat ramp offers ample parking and is open to the public. Boaters should be aware of typical lake conditions, obey all navigation rules, and take necessary safety precautions when launching and operating their vessels on Pickwick Lake.
