Rock Creek Powerhouse Take-Out

The Rock Creek Powerhouse take-out is located on river right at the confluence of Rock Creek. From Highway 193 in Placerville go east 6 miles on Rock Creek Road. The entrance to the powerhouse will be the second road on the right after you cross over Rock Creek. The gate will be open during scheduled recreational releases by SMUD and limited parking is available by the powerhouse. The gate is required to be open daily dawn-to-dusk but the powerhouse owner, Hydroland LLC, ignores this requirement and keeps the access road gate locked at all times other than during scheduled releases. Walk-in access is always allowed but please do not block the gate.
