About This Access Site
Located on Isle La Motte in Grand Isle County, Holcomb Bay is a state-managed public boat launch on the eastern shore of Lake Champlain, operated by the Vermont Department of Fish & Wildlife. The access area features a concrete boat ramp suitable for medium-sized boats and is accessible via Quarry Road. This site provides a convenient launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboaters looking to explore this section of Lake Champlain.

The area's proximity to the Missisquoi National Wildlife Refuge (6,729 acres of wetland habitat) makes it an excellent base for wildlife viewing and paddling excursions. Paddlers launching from Holcomb Bay can explore the northern Lake Champlain region, home to diverse bird populations and scenic shorelines. The concrete ramp and state management suggest reliable facilities, though conditions and amenities should be confirmed before visiting.
