Located in Hodag Park near Rhinelander, this public boat launch provides convenient access to Boom Lake, a 365-acre lake with a maximum depth of 30 feet. The ramp is suitable for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboats looking to explore this Oneida County waterway.
Boom Lake serves as an excellent gateway to a network of connected waters. From here, paddlers can access the Wisconsin River, the Rhinelander Flowage, and surrounding waterways, making it ideal for both day trips and extended paddling adventures. The lake itself supports healthy populations of musky, walleye, northern pike, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, and panfish, drawing anglers and recreational boaters throughout the season.
