About This Access Site
The White Buffalo Lane boat ramp provides direct access to the scenic White River near Mountain Home, Arkansas. This major Ozark river is a popular destination for kayakers, canoeists, and motorized boaters, with a total length of over 1,000 miles and an average flow rate of nearly 35,000 cubic feet per second.

The boat ramp is located at the Buffalo Point recreation area, which is operated by the National Park Service. The recreation area offers a range of amenities including a campground, but the boat ramp itself is the primary feature for paddlers and boaters. The ramp leads directly into the river, which in this section has an average gradient of 7.4 feet per mile and a depth that can accommodate most small watercraft. Nearby campgrounds and other recreation areas along the White River provide additional options for those looking to explore this beautiful Ozark waterway.
