LBD Mile 537 Old Warfield Point Boat Ramp

As stated above, the old Warfield Point Boat Ramp is located within the forests along the South side of the Greenville Harbor. But it gets swamped in high water, and goes dry in low water (actually it disappears into a morass of gooey mud). For paddlers this is no problem, you just start wherever you can carry your canoe or kayak to. But for anyone using a trailer your access will be limited to medium water, between 20 and 40 on the Greenville Gauge. At print time the park is putting the finishing touches on a new concrete boat ramp at the point (near tower) with a parking lot beside that will make year-round landings possible and will be situated in a better location right on the main channel.
