Launch TypeShore
Also known as Martin Bar and Woodland Bar. The Port of Woodland has leased much of the Martin Bar area, but a small area still has public access. According to their website:
Public access is available in between the two properties of Martin Bar South and Martin Bar North with access on the south end of Martin Bar north. A small strip of Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife property is along the northern boundary of Martin Bar South. The access road and along the ordinary high water mark is available to the public. However, the remaining portion of the properties are under contract with private companies.
The launch is the sand river bank. The sand is soft and loose. Traction may be difficult. The access has a moderate grade and is probably most suitable for hand launching and smaller watercraft. No designated disabled parking. Site is primitive with uneven and rough roads. Several piles of garbage have been dumped at this site. This site is used by off-road vehicle users also.
