Clear Public Water Access is a South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks (SDGFP) maintained public access site located on the southeastern shore of Clear Lake in Deuel County. The facility features a **double-lane concrete boat ramp** suitable for launching kayaks, canoes, and motorboats. Additional amenities include a dock for easy water entry and exit, a picnic area for pre-trip preparation or post-paddling relaxation, and a primitive restroom facility.
This is a straightforward, no-frills access point ideal for paddlers looking to launch onto Clear Lake. The concrete ramp and dock make it convenient for getting watercraft in and out of the water, whether you're planning a casual paddle or longer excursion. As a state-maintained site, it provides reliable public access to the lake. Paddlers should note that adjacent lands around Clear Lake are under mixed ownership, so respect posted property boundaries when accessing the water.
