About This Access Site
The 24th Avenue access site is a two-lane concrete boat ramp located on the west side of Lake Winnebago near Oshkosh, accessible off W 24th Street. The facility includes docking areas and paved parking, making it convenient for launching kayaks, canoes, and motorboats. This mid-lake location on Wisconsin's largest inland lake provides good access for paddlers looking to explore the expansive 215-square-mile water body.

Lake Winnebago is a shallow, 28-mile-long lake with variable conditions depending on wind and weather. The 24th Avenue ramp's west-side location makes it a practical choice for paddlers planning to explore the western portions of the lake or seeking protection from easterly winds. Given the lake's size and relatively shallow depth, paddlers should check current wind and weather forecasts before heading out, as conditions can change quickly. The site's modest two-lane capacity means it's less busy than some larger ramps like nearby Stockbridge (which has six lanes), making it a quieter option during peak periods.
