Athletic Field Access

Lee Athletic Field Access provides official boat access to the Housatonic River with a developed launch site; be prepared to carry your boat across the athletic fields to reach the access at the rear of the field.

Limited off-road parking is available, and users should be courteous if recreational events are in progress. This access point serves as a take-out for paddlers completing Section C rapids and a put-in for the flatwater Section D paddle to South Lee.
