About This Access Site
Kreher Park offers public boat access to Lake Superior's Chequamegon Bay and surrounding waters, located about 6 miles southeast of downtown Ashland, Wisconsin. This is a well-developed access point with amenities including a boat ramp, RV campsites with water and electric hookups, swimming beach, playground, and facilities like showers and a dumping station. The park's proximity to both the marina and town makes it a convenient launching point for paddlers and boaters exploring the bay.

Paddlers should be aware that Lake Superior is a large, powerful body of water requiring appropriate preparation and safety precautions. Before launching, check current conditions and be prepared for cold water temperatures and potential weather changes. Note that aquatic invasive species including Curly-Leaf Pondweed and Rainbow Smelt are present in Lake Superior; clean and dry your equipment between water bodies. The nearby Whittlesey Creek National Wildlife Refuge offers additional paddling and wildlife viewing opportunities in the coastal wetland complex along Superior's south shore.
