About This Access Site
The Lake Ida North Boat Ramp is a gravel access point located off Big Horn Bay Road NW in Alexandria, Douglas County. This launch provides paddlers and boaters with convenient access to Lake Ida's northern waters. The gravel surface is suitable for kayaks, canoes, and motorized boats, though paddlers should be prepared for potentially muddy conditions, especially during wet seasons.
Lake Ida is a multi-access lake with 13 documented public and private launch points, making it a popular destination for recreational boating and fishing. The North Ramp is one of three primary public access points on the lake (others include the East Ramp on Sugar Sand Lane and Southeast Ramp on Sunset Strip). For the best experience, check local weather conditions and wind direction before launching, as these factors can significantly impact paddling conditions on larger lakes.
