Devils Kitchen Lake Boat Ramp

Devils Kitchen Lake offers three boat ramps for access to this 810-acre reservoir managed by Crab Orchard National Wildlife Refuge. A refuge user pass is required prior to launching, and note that a 10 horsepower motor limit is in effect on the lake.

The lake features abundant standing timber and underwater snags, so boaters should exercise caution when navigating.
