Grindstone Reservoir is a small 17-acre lake in Hinckley, Pine County, offering a convenient public boat launch for kayakers, canoeists, and other boaters. With a maximum depth of 11 feet, the reservoir is ideal for paddling and recreational boating. The access site provides vehicle launch capability for those with trailers, making it suitable for various watercraft types.
The area offers additional amenities during the warmer months (May through September), including the Dam House facility where visitors can rent equipment, purchase fishing gear, and access food and beverages. This makes Grindstone Reservoir a good option for a half-day paddle or fishing outing. Note that the boat ramp may occasionally be closed for maintenance—it's worth checking ahead before your visit to confirm access is available.
