Bob's Bay

Bob's Bay is a public boat ramp providing access to Clearwater (West) Lake in South Haven, Stearns County, Minnesota. This is one of two public launches available on the lake, making it a convenient entry point for kayakers, canoeists, and boaters exploring the area. The ramp accommodates most 12-18 foot boats, though some larger vessels may be possible depending on specific ramp conditions.

There are no launch fees at this site unless it's located within a park that requires a vehicle permit—check locally for current regulations. The access point offers a straightforward boat launch setup suitable for recreational paddling and boating on Clearwater Lake. Before heading out, paddlers should check current water conditions and wind forecasts, as weather can significantly affect paddling safety and experience on the lake.
