About This Access Site
The Menno Public Water Access provides boat ramp and dock facilities on Furlong Creek in Hutchinson County. The access point includes a small park and campground area, making it a convenient launch location for paddlers and boaters. The site is open 24 hours a day and is free to use, with facilities designed to accommodate both trailer and carry-in launches.

Lake Menno, located at this access point, is designated as a "no wake" body of water covering approximately 47 surface acres. This makes it ideal for kayakers and canoeists looking for calmer paddling conditions. The ramp can accommodate boats up to 12-18 feet in length, though larger vessels may not be suitable. Whether you're launching a kayak, canoe, or small motorized boat, this is a straightforward public access site with basic amenities for getting on the water.
