Kelsey Cumming Park

Kelsey Cumming Park provides convenient public access to Little Bitterroot Lake near Marion in the Flathead area. The site features a concrete boat ramp and a small parking area, making it suitable for launching kayaks, canoes, and motorboats. Restrooms are available at the park, and the location is less crowded than some other area access points, making it an appealing option for those seeking a quieter paddling experience.

Little Bitterroot Lake is a substantial 3,000-acre water body with over 11 miles of shoreline and average depths exceeding 100 feet. Paddlers should note that public shore access around the lake is limited, though the western shoreline—where this access point is located—is more developed. The lake's size and depth make it suitable for various water activities, though visitors should be prepared for larger water conditions typical of deep lakes. The nearby Lost Trail National Wildlife Refuge adds to the area's recreational appeal for those interested in wildlife viewing during their visit.
