Wheatland Park is a camping facility that offers access to the lower end of the Pomme de Terre Pomme Arm of the Lake. This area offers overnight camping, boat ramp and courtesy loading dock, a swim beach, shower houses, picnic shelters and two playgrounds. Camping is allowed but is bought seperately. Visitors will be able to purchase a day-use pass for $5.00 to launch boats from this ramp and access the beach. Annual Day-Use and America the Beautiful passes will also be honored at this location and must be properly displayed. This day-use area is open to the public year-round but only charges fees to use the beach from April 16th through September 30th and the boat ramp from March 1st through November 30th. This day use fee will be valid for the day of purchase at other recreational areas at Pomme de Terre Lake.
Parking at this location is available on a first -come, first-serve basis and not guranteed. Once on-site, follow the posted instructions.
