About Lake Seminole

The Lake Seminole project, originally authorized as the Jim Woodruff Lock & Dam Project by the River and Harbor Act of 1946, was the first of three locks and dams constructed for navigation, hydro-power, recreation and related use purposes on the Apalachicola, Chattahoochee, and Flint River systems. Construction of this muti-purpose project began in 1947 and was completed in 1957. 6 ramps offer free public access, while 22 charge a launch fee. Ramp surfaces include 19 paved concrete ramps suitable for larger motorized vessels. 3 ramps are ADA accessible, and 26 have designated parking. Ramps are managed by COE, City, DNR-PRHS, and others. Live water level data is available from 2 USGS gauges near Lake Seminole. Check current conditions before launching, as water levels can affect ramp accessibility.
