About this campground

The Elk Creek Boat Ramp provides access to Anderson Ranch Reservoir, just north of the dam.  In 2013, portions of Elk Creek Boat Ramp site received extreme storm damage. Portions of the parking area, both cement boat ramp and wooden docks were damaged.  Temporary repairs were completed, which has allowed public access to continue using the site. A contractor and Forest Staff are scheduled to begin repair on September 9, 2015 the repair will consist of removal of damaged facilities, and pouring of new ramp, dock anchors and abutment.  Repair work was finished approximately October 19, 2015.  The Ramp re-opened 10-20-2015. Once the work is completed, additional time is needed to allow for curing of the concrete.
