Sheldon Reservoir Boat Ramp

Sheldon Reservoir Boat Ramp offers a concrete ramp suitable for larger boats near the dam on the south end of the lake, accessible via Pineland Road with no fee required.

The ramp is operated by Texas Parks & Wildlife and provides access to a 1,230-acre reservoir popular for paddling and fishing, though be aware the concrete surface may scratch boats.

A secondary access point at Garrett Road Crossing is available for bank fishing only, with the lake closed to boats from November to March to protect wintering birds.
