Camp Lake

Camp Lake is a 534-acre lake located in Garrison, Crow Wing County, Minnesota, offering public boat ramp access on the northwest side of the lake. The ramp is suitable for launching trailered boats and provides parking for day-use boaters and paddlers. With a maximum depth of 42 feet, the lake supports various recreational activities including fishing, kayaking, and canoeing.

The access point is situated near a campground with 32 sites, though parking is available for non-campers using the boat launch. This location makes Camp Lake a convenient destination for paddlers looking to explore a scenic Minnesota lake or anglers seeking fishing opportunities. Wind conditions can affect paddling, so check local forecasts before heading out. The lake's size and depth make it suitable for both beginner and experienced paddlers, though as with any larger lake body, weather awareness is important.
