Low Falls Boat Ramp

There are 2 positives here- plenty of open spots on a summer Sunday, and most of the docks have a rub guard strip, though it is thin and missing in places. Unfortunately, they did not think to build the docks to be right next to the ramps; they are about 4-5' apart. This makes 1-person loading/unloading unnecessarily challenging... imagine coming back in to leave and putting the boat on your trailer, and your boat design has no easy or safe way to get back to your vehicle from the front, so you either get wet by jumping in the water or you risk your safety by leaping over to the dock and hoping you make it and don't slip and fall. Most lakes have a ramp right beside the dock where I can put the boat on the trailer and then step over to the dock effortlessly, but here it's impossible, though they could have easily designed it better. The best way to get into and out of this part of the lake is to go through the small break in the trees almost directly across from the parking lot and then you're in a channel, which is relatively clear. In general, I would avoid the northern part of this lake completely, anything north of the bridge. There are underwater stumps everywhere that CANNOT be seen from the surface, and with an outboard motor you can plan on hitting one every 5-10 minutes. If I ever return to this dangerous lake, I will stay south of the bridge, where there are less invisible hazards, though there are still things to hit on the south side too. I don't understand why this lake was allowed to be flooded without first cutting down all the trees first, and why now, less than 5% of the dangerous points are marked. Not friendly to fiberglass boats or outboard motors.

Easy loading, beautiful views! Just make sure you know how to look for stumps and floating logs!! It’s is a beautiful place!

It's one of my favorite fishing spots ...I also saw two small gators, and I enjoyed the views from the boat ramp

Great ramp with 4 lanes.

Great place to launch your boat in the Upper Santee.
