Lake Ellen

Located in Cascade, Sheboygan County, the Lake Ellen boat ramp provides public access to this 112-acre lake maintained by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. The ramp is ideal for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorboats looking to explore a moderately-sized inland lake with moderately clear water conditions.

Lake Ellen offers good recreational opportunities with a maximum depth of 42 feet, making it suitable for various water activities. The lake is home to Panfish, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, and Walleye, attracting anglers throughout the season. The relatively calm, protected waters make it an accessible destination for paddlers of varying skill levels.

The area is also near the Wisconsin Shipwreck Coast National Marine Sanctuary, which preserves maritime heritage and offers additional cultural context for visitors exploring the broader Sheboygan County waterways.
