What visitors say
Mostly positiveCarters Wharf offers a peaceful boat launching experience with a concrete ramp and good dock in generally nice condition, though debris occasionally accumulates on the ramp. The facility has ample parking for 10+ boat trailers, deep water (40 feet at 50 feet from shore), and plenty of bank fishing area, though fishing from the pier is no longer permitted and underwater snags pose hazards for anglers. The remote location requires driving down a mile-long gravel road and steep hill to access the ramp, but the lack of crowds and crowding makes it an attractive destination for those seeking a quiet outing.
