The dock/fishing pier is very nice. The parking area in the field needs some work.
One paved (but pitted and bumpy) ramp; however, the boat dock is in good condition. There is a separate fishing dock and a porta-potty. The is a gravel and a grass parking lot which can hold 20 cars with trailers. The ramp is shallow at low tide. Solo loading and unloading a boat can be a challenge at times due to tidal currents and waves from boat traffic. This seems to be a go-to spot for local boaters and bank fisherman.
It's an okay ramp. Can launch a full-size bass boat. Turning around to launch is a little wonky, but it works. Parking is in the grass/gravel, but there are two areas to park which is good. Watch out for the actual bricks in the water- upstream near the seawall. If the tide is ripping, be careful launching solo.
Nice spot to sit and relax.. especially when the sun is setting. Good place to fish as well.
