Lake Holmes boat ramp provides public access to Lake Holmes, a 675-acre reservoir located near Turtle Lake in McLean County, North Dakota. The ramp is part of the Brekken-Holmes Recreation Area and offers a convenient launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboats looking to explore this prairie lake.
**Important seasonal note:** This ramp operates seasonally, so paddlers should verify it is open before visiting, particularly during spring and fall transitions. Contact North Dakota Game and Fish or check their website for current access status and any maintenance closures. The site offers free, public access during operating season and is part of North Dakota's network of boating access areas.
For specific details on amenities, parking, facility hours, and current conditions, consult the North Dakota Game and Fish website at gf.nd.gov. Given the lake's modest size, it's well-suited for recreational paddling and fishing.
