Elk Creek Lake

Located in Eau Claire County near the Dunn County border, this public boat ramp provides access to Elk Creek Lake, a 57-acre recreational lake. The modest size and maximum depth of 17 feet make it suitable for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorboats. The lake supports panfish, largemouth bass, and trout, making it a popular spot for both paddling and fishing.

Boaters should note that inspection stations are available at the Elk Creek boat ramp during spring hours (7:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.) for watercraft inspections. These exit inspections verify that boats are clean, drained, and dried to help prevent the spread of aquatic invasive species. This is a straightforward access point for casual paddling and fishing trips in the Eau Claire area.
