About This Access Site
**Location & Access**
Staunton City Lake is located in southeastern Macoupin County, approximately 2 miles north of Staunton, IL. The boat ramp is accessed via Bono Road and features a concrete launch facility on the southwest corner of the lake, making it straightforward to find and use.

**Facilities & Regulations**
This is a single concrete boat ramp suitable for launching kayaks, canoes, and small motorboats. The lake operates under a Cooperative Management Agreement with IDNR Fisheries. Keep in mind that fishing regulations limit anglers to two poles and lines with no more than 2 hooks or lures per pole—regulations that reflect the lake's managed fishery status. Paddlers should expect a relatively calm, inland lake environment ideal for recreational kayaking and canoeing.
