J. N. Turkey Kearn Memorial Wildlife Area

This accessible boat ramp in Windsor provides convenient launch access to Lake #2 within the J. N. Turkey Kearn Memorial Wildlife Area. The site features ADA-accessible facilities including parking, docks, and restrooms, making it suitable for paddlers of all abilities. The ramp is well-maintained and designed to accommodate canoes, kayaks, paddleboards, and motorized boats.

Lake #2 is a relatively shallow water body with abundant aquatic vegetation, which creates a natural, wildlife-rich paddling environment but may present navigation challenges during peak growth seasons. The wildlife area is actively managed for waterfowl and upland game, so expect to encounter diverse bird life and wildlife, especially during migration seasons. This makes it an excellent location for nature observation and wildlife viewing while paddling. Be aware that vegetation management through prescribed burning, mowing, and cropping occurs seasonally, which may occasionally affect access or paddling conditions.
