About This Access Site
Kasuske Public Water Access is a two-lane concrete boat ramp located on the west side of Big Stone Lake, mid-lake area, off 479th Avenue in Roberts County. The facility includes a dock and paved parking, making it convenient for launching kayaks, canoes, and motorboats. This location provides good mid-lake access to Big Stone Lake, a scenic water body spanning the South Dakota-Minnesota border.

Before visiting, note that a park entrance license is required to access boat ramps within South Dakota state parks and recreation areas, as well as some lakeside use areas. Be sure to check current conditions and confirm any fees or permits needed prior to your trip. The concrete ramp and dock facilities make this a straightforward launch point for paddlers of various skill levels.
