Indian Lake

The Indian Lake boat ramp at Smiths Mill provides public water access to Indian Lake in Blue Earth County. The main paved ramp accommodates larger vessels, while a hand launch area nearby is ideal for kayaks, canoes, and other small watercraft. This site is a convenient entry point for paddlers looking to explore Indian Lake's waters.

Paddlers should note that a hand launch is available adjacent to the main ramp, making it well-suited for non-motorized craft. If you're planning to paddle between Lewey Lake and Indian Lake, be aware that access between these water bodies requires a portage over the spillway beneath the Route 30 bridge—this route is typically restricted to small boats, canoes, and kayaks. Check local conditions and water levels before your visit to ensure safe passage.
