Koosharem Rec Site boat launch
Koosharem Rec Site
This boat ramp is located on Fish Lake, a beautiful and serene body of water located in the Fishlake National Forest. Fish Lake is a popular destination for boating and fishing enthusiasts and is known for its crystal-clear waters, which offer excellent visibility for fishing and other water activities.
The Koosharem Rec Site boat ramp is suitable for a variety of watercraft, including boats, pontoons, jet skis, and kayaks. However, it is important to note that motorized watercraft are subject to certain rules and regulations in Fish Lake. For instance, there are restrictions on the speed of motorized boats, and some areas of the lake are designated as no-wake zones.
In conclusion, the Koosharem Rec Site boat ramp in Utah is a wide concrete ramp that provides access to the beautiful Fish Lake. It is suitable for a variety of watercraft, including motorized boats, but boaters should be aware of the rules and regulations in place for motorized watercraft on the lake.

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.
Set push alerts in the Snoflo app
Save Koosharem Rec Site as a favorite, set a discharge threshold or a wind/precipitation alert, and the iOS app will push the moment conditions cross.
About Koosharem Rec Site
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.
Can I get alerts when conditions change?
Yes -- alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app. Favorite this launch, set a threshold (discharge, wind), and you'll get a push the moment it crosses.
