The Twin River access point near Baudette provides a convenient launch location for paddlers and boaters on the Winter Road River in Lake of the Woods County. This public access site is available 24 hours daily and accommodates both trailer launches and carry-in boats, with the ramp suitable for boats in the 12-18 foot range. The access offers basic boat launching facilities and is located in Baudette, a small community near the Minnesota-Ontario border.
Beyond the launch itself, the Twin River area provides some additional amenities for visitors. The access is part of a landing with nearby restaurant and bar facilities, making it a convenient stop for paddlers planning trips on the Winter Road River. If you're planning an extended visit, the area offers camping and room rental options. Before launching, check current conditions on the Winter Road River, as water levels and flow can vary seasonally—this is important information for both canoeists and kayakers planning their routes.
