Johnson Ferry Boat Ramp

Johnson Ferry Boat Ramp is the primary access point below Morgan Falls Dam on the Chattahoochee River, offering a boat ramp suitable for motorized boats, canoes, kayaks, and rafts, along with parking (including boat trailer spaces), accessible restrooms, and picnic areas.

The launch can get crowded during summer months and serves as a starting point for various paddling distances, with approximately 30-45 minutes needed for water released from Morgan Falls Dam to reach this location.

Check real-time water release schedules and flow rates before launching, as conditions are heavily influenced by dam operations.
