About This Access Site
Big Blake Lake is a 208-acre lake in Polk County's Georgetown Township offering convenient public access for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboats. The lake features a maximum depth of 14 feet with consistent water levels and few shallow spots, making it suitable for various skill levels. The ramp is one of two public boat launches available on the lake, providing easy entry and exit for your watercraft.

This scenic lake is well-suited for paddling and recreation, with populations of panfish, largemouth bass, northern pike, walleye, and musky for anglers. In addition to the two boat ramps, there is also a carry-in access option available if you prefer launching from an alternative location. The Big Blake Lake access point provides a convenient base for exploring this Polk County waterway and serves as a potential jumping-off point for paddlers interested in nearby paddling on the Saint Croix National Scenic Riverway system.
