Au Sable Lake offers a convenient boat launch in Ogemaw County near the community of Lupton. This access point provides paddlers and boaters with entry to Au Sable Lake and connections to the broader Au Sable River system. The ramp's location makes it a reasonable launching point for exploring the lake and accessing downstream paddling opportunities.
Paddlers should be aware that boat traffic can be heavy during salmon season, which may impact kayak and canoe launching conditions. The site includes parking facilities, though fees may apply. For overnight trips, the nearby Rollways Campground and South Branch Trail Camp Group Site (both reservable) offer convenient camping options within 10 miles, making this a practical base for extended paddling adventures in the area.
