About This Access Site
**Overview**
Bolger Lake is a 115-acre public access lake located in Minocqua, Oneida County, Wisconsin. The lake offers excellent water clarity and reaches a maximum depth of 45 feet, making it suitable for kayaking, canoeing, and motorboating. The public boat landing provides direct access to the water for all paddle craft and recreational vessels.

**Practical Information**
The ramp is located at 9773 Bolger Lake Road. Note that parking is limited to roadside spaces only, and there is no turnaround area at the ramp itself—launch planning should account for backing down from the upper turn area to access the water. The lake supports a healthy fishery including Musky, Panfish, Largemouth Bass, Smallmouth Bass, and Walleye, making it popular with anglers as well as paddlers.

**Before You Visit**
Check current conditions and any seasonal restrictions before launching. Given the roadside-only parking setup, arrive early during peak season to secure a spot, and plan your launch accordingly with your vehicle positioning.
