About This Access Site
The Minnesota City Boat Club provides private access to the Mississippi River near Winona, located at mile marker 730.8R (right/Minnesota side of the river). This facility offers temporary dockage, fuel, and water services, making it a convenient stop for boaters and paddlers. For information about membership, rates, or current availability, contact the boat club directly at (507) 689-2412.
The Mississippi River at this location is a major waterway with substantial flow—averaging over 685,000 cubic feet per second—and relatively swift current (average velocity of 11.24 feet/second). Paddlers should be prepared for significant river conditions and traffic from commercial and recreational boats. The surrounding area features the scenic Upper Mississippi River National Wildlife and Fish Refuge, bordered by steep wooded bluffs rising 100-600 feet above the river valley, offering scenic paddling opportunities in Pool 5A.
**Nearby alternatives** include public USFWS landings at Verchota (730.8R, concrete plank ramp) and Upper McNalley (728.5R, concrete plank ramp), which provide free public access if the boat club facility doesn't meet your needs.
