Shadow Bay Campground boat ramp is a concrete boat ramp that is suitable for launching small to medium-sized boats. The ramp is approximately 16 feet wide and extends into the water to a depth of about 4 feet. This boat ramp services the Dorena Reservoir, a 6-mile-long reservoir located in the Willamette Valley of western Oregon.

According to the Oregon State Parks website, Dorena Reservoir is suitable for recreational boating and fishing. Power boats are permitted on the reservoir, but there is a speed limit of 10 miles per hour. Other permitted watercraft include sailboats, canoes, kayaks, and paddleboards.

Based on the latest information available, Shadow Bay Campground boat ramp is open year-round for public use. However, it is important to note that conditions at the ramp and on the reservoir may change due to weather, water levels, or other factors. It is recommended that boaters check for updates and safety information before launching their craft.
