Docks of White Bear Lake

The Docks of White Bear Lake offers convenient public access to White Bear Lake in the Northeast Twin Cities metro area. This facility features 250 floating dock slips accommodating boats up to 24 feet in length, making it ideal for boaters who prefer not to trailer their vessels daily. The access point is easily reached from throughout the Twin Cities and provides a well-developed launching area with amenities including portable toilets, washroom facilities, picnic areas, and an adjacent beach.

Paddlers and boaters will find this a reliable spot for accessing the lake's clear waters. The site is located at Matoska Park, which offers 15 parking spaces and is accessed via 6th Street east of Highway 61 to Lake Avenue North, then south to the park. An annual permit is required from the City of White Bear Lake. The White Bear Lake Conservation District actively manages boating activities and water quality on the lake, so visitors should familiarize themselves with local regulations. For those seeking additional options, private docking facilities with launch fees are also available nearby.
