Lake Morris is a 142-acre lake located in Christian County, Kentucky, near Hopkinsville. The lake features an unpaved boat ramp that is free to use and accessible year-round, 24 hours per day. Only electric motors are permitted on the lake - no gas-powered boats are allowed.

The lake is managed by the city of Hopkinsville, with gates that are opened daily at 7:00 AM and closed at 7:00 PM throughout the year. Facilities include unpaved parking that can accommodate up to 25 vehicles, restrooms that are open year-round, and picnic areas. There is no courtesy dock or marina available.

Access to the boat ramp is via US 41 North of Hopkinsville - take a right on old Madisonville Road, then right onto Highway 2642. The lake's boat ramp can accommodate any light trailerable recreational boat, though the unpaved surface may be challenging in wet conditions.

Swimming, camping, and hunting are not permitted at Lake Morris. While shoreline access is available year-round, the primary activities are fishing and electric motor boating. The lake does not have handicap-accessible facilities such as restrooms, parking, ramps, or fishing piers.

The relatively small size and electric-motor-only restriction make Lake Morris well-suited for calm water paddling. Basic amenities and established hours of operation provide structure for day trips, though paddlers should be prepared for the unpaved launch conditions and lack of dock facilities.
