Waterford is the old crossing point of the Logan, and Larry Storey Park sits on the southern bank beside the bridge. The ramp is a single concrete lane at an eight per cent grade with toilets and about seven bays in a park with lawns and shade, a better-equipped ramp than most of the upper Logan launches. The state register lists it as usable on all tides, with the same caveat as everywhere up here: after a dry spell the river level is what matters.

The reach is sheltered and slow, with bass and jack in the timber upstream towards Logan Reserve and bream, flathead and salmon downstream towards Bethania and Tanah Merah. It is tinnie, canoe and kayak water for the most part, and ski boats use the wider reaches below. Six knots applies at the bridge and near the ramp. After heavy rain the Logan rises quickly and runs dirty for days.

There is no marine rescue cover this far upstream; emergency is 000.
