About This Access Site
The Deer Island boat ramp, operated by the City of Pepin, offers a concrete slab launch facility on the Mississippi River in Stockholm. This access point provides a convenient entry to one of North America's largest river systems. The ramp includes a fish cleaning house, making it practical for anglers as well as recreational paddlers and boaters.
Be aware that you'll be launching onto a major river system with significant flow characteristics. The Mississippi at this location is a powerful Stream Order 10 river with an average flow of 685,000+ cubic feet per second and average velocity of 11+ feet per second. Paddlers should be experienced with moving water and strong currents. The river's 0.8 ft/mile gradient means a steady downstream push, so plan accordingly for your skill level and trip objectives.
This location is part of Wisconsin's extensive public boat access network. For current details on hours, facilities, parking, and any seasonal conditions, check the Wisconsin DNR boat access website at dnr.wi.gov/topic/Lands/boataccess/ or contact the City of Pepin directly.
