Located in International Falls on Rainy Lake, the Frank Bohman Memorial access site provides a public boat ramp for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboaters. This ramp accommodates both trailer launches and carry-in access, making it suitable for a variety of watercraft. The site offers convenient access to Rainy Lake, a large border water body between Minnesota and Canada.
The ramp is situated near the Canadian border crossing area and features parking for vehicles and trailers. As a public water access site, it operates 24 hours daily unless otherwise posted. For paddlers planning multi-day trips, Voyageurs National Park camping permits are available within 10 miles and can be reserved in advance. When planning your visit, check current conditions and any posted advisories, and note that this is a border area where standard boating regulations apply.
