Facilities

The park offers three concrete boat ramps, with room for six boats to launch or be removed from the water simultaneously. A short canal allows boat access to Canandaigua Lake.[3] Parking is available for up to 110 cars and trailers.[4]

Between September 2011 and May 2012, the park was closed to allow for the complete reconstruction of the boat launch area.[5]

Although the park's primary purpose is to serve as a boat launch facility, fishing from shore is also permitted at the park.[6] A small picnic area near a duck pond is also available.[3]
