CommentsWhile this site has a concrete boat ramp, be aware that due to the shallow, rocky nature of the Monocacy River, the site will only accommodate small, shallow draft boats with trolling motors. Canoes and kayaks can also launch from this site. Check river levels prior to launching. Hours of operation are dawn to 10 pm. Please note that after flooding use of this access site can be impeded by mud.
