About This Access Site
**Location & Facilities**
The Spring Park Boat Ramp is located on Shoreline Drive in Spring Park, adjacent to the Hennepin County Sheriff's Water Patrol Office. This public access point provides ample parking for 55 vehicles with boat trailers, plus additional car-only spaces. The facility includes a boathouse with restrooms and a pier for boat access, making it a well-equipped launch site.

**Launch Details & Character**
The ramp features two launch lanes and can accommodate multiple boats simultaneously, with service docks available for boat tie-up. Spring Park Bay sits in a central location on Lake Minnetonka's Upper Lake, positioned between several bays and islands. The northern exposure of this launch provides calmer conditions compared to southern-facing ramps, making it a good choice when southern winds create choppy water. This is one of Lake Minnetonka's busier public access points, so expect moderate to heavy use during peak season.

**Best For**
This ramp is ideal for kayakers, canoeists, and boaters looking to explore the Upper Lake's central basins and connected bays. The established facilities and protected waters make it a reliable, family-friendly access point.
