Kennedy County Park offers a public boat landing on the Lemonweir River, located 3 miles north of New Lisbon in Juneau County. The ramp accommodates smaller boats, canoes, and kayaks, making it a convenient put-in or take-out point for paddlers exploring this section of river. The park itself features basic amenities including a playground and 12 first-come, first-served camping sites, with a shelter available for reservation through the Parks office.
Paddlers should be aware that the Lemonweir in this area has a modest character—the banks are generally in decent condition, and the river is navigable for small watercraft. Keep in mind that take-out options on the lower Lemonweir are limited; most paddlers either exit at this location or continue downstream to the mouth of the Wisconsin River. The landscape features scenic rock bluffs in places, and seasonal conditions like fallen leaves can create unique paddling scenes, particularly in fall.
