About This Access Site
Guernsey Lake's public boat ramp is located on the southwest end of the lake near the Sauk River inlet in Osakis, Todd County. This concrete ramp provides straightforward access to the entire lake for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboats. The launch can accommodate boats up to 12-18 feet, though some ramps may handle larger vessels. There are no launch fees unless the access point is within a park requiring a vehicle permit.

The lake itself has minimal residential development along its shoreline, making it a relatively natural setting for paddling and boating. As a riverine lake fed by the Sauk River, water levels can vary seasonally, so conditions may change throughout the year. This access point on the southwest end offers a convenient entry point for exploring the entire lake, whether you're interested in paddling, fishing, or general boating recreation.
