Lake Gentry Road 5424, Saint Cloud
The boat ramp is a concrete construction and is approximately 30 feet in width, allowing for easy launching and retrieval of boats. It is also equipped with a courtesy dock for loading and unloading passengers and gear.
According to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, Lake Gentry allows all types of recreational watercraft, including boats, kayaks, canoes, and paddleboards. However, it is important to note that the lake has a 10 horsepower limit for motorized boats, meaning that only small motorized boats are allowed on the water.
It is recommended to check with local authorities or the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission for any changes or updates to regulations and restrictions before using the boat ramp.

Boating safety & etiquette
- Check the conditions before you launch
- Use the streamflow numbers, weather, and wind forecast on this page. High-cfs whitewater requires whitewater-specific craft and skill.
- Wear your life jacket
- Statistically the single biggest survival factor in a boating incident. State law often requires one per passenger.
- File a float plan
- Tell someone on shore your put-in, take-out, and expected return time. Especially for multi-day or remote trips.
- Yield at the ramp
- Prep gear in the parking lot, not on the ramp. Launch and clear quickly so others can use the lane.
- Clean, drain, dry
- Inspect, clean, drain and dry your boat between waters to prevent the spread of aquatic invasive species.

About Lake Gentry Road 5424, Saint Cloud
Can I launch a motorboat here?
Most Snoflo-tracked launches support motorboats; check the operator for any horsepower restrictions, paddle-only zones, or seasonal closures.
How fresh is the streamflow data?
USGS streamgauges report continuously (every 15 minutes); the table on this page pulls the latest reading at page load.
Is there a fee?
Many federal and state boat launches charge a day-use fee. Check the operator's site before driving out.
What boat is right for these conditions?
Use the nearby streamflow numbers and river-run panel on this page to gauge current conditions. Wider, slower water is friendly for casual paddling and powerboats; high-cfs whitewater requires whitewater-specific craft and skill.
