Goose Lake

The Goose Lake boat ramp at Elevenmile Corner in Cass County provides public access to this 719-acre lake in north-central Minnesota. The ramp accommodates various watercraft including kayaks, canoes, and motorboats, making it a convenient launch point for paddlers and anglers alike. With a maximum depth of 55 feet, Goose Lake offers diverse paddling conditions across its surface.

The lake supports a healthy fishery featuring bluegill (above average size), crappie, bullhead species, and yellow perch, making it popular with anglers. An interactive guide is available online to help paddlers locate access points, check wind conditions, and identify fishing spots before heading out. The nearby Mississippi River Headwaters and Leech Lake offer additional paddling and recreation options in the region for those looking to explore beyond Goose Lake.
