About This Access Site
Shelldrake Lake in Chippewa County offers a hard-surface boat ramp suitable for launching trailerable watercraft. The ramp is designed to accommodate canoes, kayaks, and small motorboats, with adequate water depth (minimum 2.5-3 feet at 20 feet from shore) for safe launches and retrievals.
This is a modest access point that can experience moderate use, particularly during peak seasons. Paddlers should be prepared for potentially windy conditions and plan accordingly. The ramp provides a straightforward entry point for exploring Shelldrake Lake. Remember to avoid power loading your vessel to protect the ramp surface and your equipment.
