About This Access Site
This medium-sized, county-owned access point on the southeast shore of Clear Lake offers a single concrete boat ramp suitable for launching kayaks, canoes, and motorboats. The ramp accommodates multiple vehicles for loading and unloading. Clear Lake is a modest 652-acre waterbody with a maximum depth of 8 feet, making it ideal for paddlers of all skill levels and those seeking calm water conditions.
The access area is conveniently located near Lost Dog and Fox Hunters County Park, which features an 84-foot handicapped-accessible fishing pier within walking distance north of the ramp. This makes the site a good option for anglers and families. The lake's relatively shallow depth and 3-mile shoreline provide a protected paddling environment, though the compact size means paddlers should explore quickly if covering distance. Plan your visit accordingly and check local conditions before launching.
