Oxbow State Boat Ramp
Canoe/Kayak Access
The Oxbow boat ramp on the Connecticut River in Massachusetts is a public state facility operated by the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation. It is located off Route 5 in Easthampton. The ramp is paved and has thirty-five parking spaces. It is customarily used by high-powered recreational craft and larger fishing boats. The Oxbow area is primarily used for pleasure boating and is home to one of the largest marinas on the Connecticut River in Massachusetts. The Oxbow Marina, located nearby, has one of the largest showrooms of new boats in New England.
This site is part of the Connecticut River Paddlers Trail, which includes campsites, access points, and portage trails along the river.
