What visitors say
Mixed reviewsShadding Reach Landing is best suited for kayak launches rather than larger boats with trailers. The concrete ramp surface has reportedly caused hull damage, and water depth can be quite shallow. The location offers a quiet, out-of-the-way access to fishing and nature, though visitors should be mindful to avoid parking near the adjacent private farm property.
