Located along Kessler Road in Burnett County's Goose Lake Wildlife Area, this access point offers a concrete boat ramp with a 10-vehicle parking lot. The site provides convenient launching for paddlers and boaters looking to explore Goose Lake, a 62-acre seepage lake in east central Burnett County, approximately 3.5 miles northeast of the Highway A and H intersection. Day-use facilities include picnic tables and a vault toilet, making it suitable for both quick launches and longer outings.
This is a popular destination for fishing, boating, and swimming. The lake is regularly stocked with trout throughout the season, and anglers report fair to excellent fishing conditions for rainbow and brown trout, along with native brook trout and cutthroat. Paddlers and boaters should note that site availability is first-come, first-served. The concrete ramp and dedicated parking make this a reliable access point for kayaks, canoes, and small motorboats, particularly for families and those seeking a well-maintained launch facility.
