The Butterfield Lake Boat Launch in the Town of Alexandria, Jefferson County, NY had reopened following the completion of major site improvements and ramp replacement overseen by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC).
Known especially for sport fishing Butterfield Lake is part of the Indian River Lakes system, a chain of 18 natural lakes and a scenic 100-mile river located on the St. Lawrence River plain in Jefferson and St. Lawrence Counties.
The completed project includes a new concrete ramp and abutment with an accessible floating dock, parking area improvements, and shoreline stabilization around the ramp.
Other accessible features include paved and striped van and vehicle-with-trailer parking spaces, access aisles, and a port-a-john.
The boat launch, parking area, and other site amenities are now open to the public.
