About This Access Site
Eagles Nest Lake #2 is a 388-acre lake located seven miles east of Tower in northeastern St. Louis County. The access site features a **concrete boat ramp on the north side of the lake**, with a small gravel parking area located just across the road up the hill from the launch. A portable toilet is available at the landing for user convenience.
This deep lake reaches a maximum depth of 39 feet and offers clear, soft water conditions.

The area is suitable for kayaking, canoeing, and motorized boating. Note that parking is limited, so arriving early during peak times is recommended to ensure adequate space.
