Along the lower Stanislaus River, most of the land is privately owned. However, there are sixteen public access points in the stretch between New Melones Dam and the San Joaquin River. The Knights Ferry Recreation Area includes the historic Knights Ferry Covered Bridge, the longest such structure in the western US. Other parks along the lower Stanislaus include Horseshoe, Orange Blossom, and Jacob Meyers Parks and the Oakdale and McHenry Recreation Areas, which include riverside trails, campgrounds, and access for boating and fishing. Caswell Memorial State Park covers along the lower Stanislaus River and is home to one of the last native riparian oak woodlands in the Central Valley.
