This map of Coloma and Lotus highlights the Coloma Shuttle’s standard “shuttle stops” (pick-up/drop-off locations). You can use Google Maps to get directions from where you are, except for Greenwood Creek (see below).
For arrival and departure times, see the Shuttle Schedule page.
Chili Bar: Upstream end of the Chili Bar run. Drop-off point ONLY. No put-in fees if you bring your gear with you.
Henningsen-Lotus Park: The loading zone is just past the river’s edge by the electrical outlet. Please remember to pay your user fees at the booth. ($5.00 per raft & $1.00 per kayak)
Marshall Gold Discovery State Park: Please pay your parking/user fees of $10.00 at the North Beach ranger booth and then meet at the upstream portion of the North Beach parking lot.
Skunk Hollow: Loading zone along the center block wall. If leaving a car here, you will need to self-register and pay at the iron ranger in the parking lot.
Greenwood Creek: In the paved parking lot at the far end, by the brown gate. Please do not block the gate. Google maps will send you on a wild goose chase. Greenwood Creek River Access is located on Highway 49 just 3 miles north of the 3 way flashing stoplight at the Coloma Club on your way to Cool from Coloma.
