First Creek Ramp

First Creek Boat Ramp is located on the east shore of First Creek within Joe Wheeler State Park and features two paved ramps—a 4-lane and a 2-lane option—making it well-suited for busy launch days.

The facility offers paved parking, three courtesy docks, and a lavatory, providing convenient amenities for both fishing and recreational boating on Wheeler Lake.

Access the ramp by following Highway 72 to the park entrance, then heading south and following signs to the launch area.
