About This Access Site
This public boat ramp provides access to Cranberry Lake, a 466-acre lake located in Price County near Prentice. The lake reaches a maximum depth of 18 feet, making it suitable for kayaking, canoeing, and motorboating. The ramp is conveniently located at coordinates 45.62157647, -90.34078449 for easy navigation.

Cranberry Lake supports a healthy fishery including Panfish, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, and Walleye, making it popular with anglers as well as recreational paddlers. Note that water clarity is low, so exercise caution when navigating. The moderate size and depth of this lake make it accessible for paddlers of varying skill levels, though it's best suited for calm-water activities rather than whitewater recreation.
