About This Access Site
Wills Park in Ellison Bay provides public boat access to Lake Michigan's Green Bay, making it a convenient launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and recreational boaters exploring Door County's waters. Located in the scenic northern Door County area, this access site puts paddlers within reach of notable natural areas, including the Green Bay National Wildlife Refuge and nearby Gravel Island National Wildlife Refuge—popular destinations for wildlife viewing and exploration.

The site is well-positioned for both day trips and extended paddling adventures on Green Bay. Paddlers should be prepared for Lake Michigan's variable conditions, including wind and waves, which can change quickly. The proximity to multiple parks and recreation areas in the Ellison Bay region—including the nearby Ellison Bay Community Park—makes this a good base for exploring Door County's waterways and coastal features.
