About This Access Site
The Elbow Lake public boat ramp in Birchwood provides convenient access to this 36-acre lake in Washburn County. With a maximum depth of 25 feet, Elbow Lake offers adequate water conditions for kayaking, canoeing, and recreational boating. The lake is home to panfish and largemouth bass, making it popular with anglers as well as paddlers.
This public access point is ideal for paddlers looking for a smaller, manageable lake experience. The modest size makes it suitable for casual day trips, and the depth provides good conditions for most small watercraft. Visitors should contact the Washburn County Parks Department or check local signage for any seasonal access information, parking availability, or specific facility details at the ramp.
