The Badin Lake Boat Ramp is a concrete boat ramp located in North Carolina. It is approximately 24 feet wide, making it suitable for launching a variety of watercraft. The ramp provides access to Badin Lake, a 5,350-acre reservoir in the Uwharrie National Forest.

According to the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission, the lake is open to various types of watercraft, including motorized and non-motorized boats, canoes, kayaks, and paddleboards. However, there are certain regulations in place, such as a horsepower limit of 10hp for boats and a requirement for personal flotation devices for all passengers.

The latest information available suggests that the Badin Lake Boat Ramp is well-maintained and provides ample parking for vehicles and trailers. Additionally, there are nearby facilities, such as restrooms and picnic areas, that visitors can utilize. It is important to note that the ramp may have specific operating hours or fees, so it is recommended to check with local authorities or the U.S. Forest Service before planning a visit.
