Sutliff Boat Ramp
Sutliff Boat Ramp
Sutliff Boat Ramp is a half-acre access area on the Cedar River featuring a concrete boat ramp and picnic tables, with parking that remains accessible even during flood stage.
The site provides excellent recreational opportunities and connects visitors to the historic Sutliff Bridge (built 1898, pedestrian/bike access only) and the adjacent Cedar River Crossing Conservation Area across the bridge, which offers hiking and exploration of wetland-prairie complexes and bottomland forests.
Restroom facilities are available at the Cedar River Crossing parking area just across the bridge.
