About This Access Site
Shannon Lake is a 35-acre water body in Vilas County offering public access via a dedicated boat ramp near Saint Germain. The lake reaches a maximum depth of 30 feet, making it suitable for various boating and paddling activities. GPS navigation may direct you to a closed road—if this occurs, turn right and follow the signs marked "public boat ramp" to reach the actual launch site.
**Important Access Details:** Overnight parking and camping are not permitted at the boat ramp to maintain safety on the narrow access road. Day-use access is available, making this a good spot for paddlers and boaters looking for a convenient launch location. Those planning overnight trips should consider alternative camping options in the area, such as PSE's Koma Kulshan Campground near the Upper Baker Dam on Baker Lake Road.
