About This Access Site
Lakeside Park West offers excellent access to Lake Winnebago, one of the largest inland lakes in the United States. The facility features 12 concrete launch lanes with dedicated launch pads, making it well-suited for kayakers, canoeists, and larger boats. A permit is required to launch: daily permits are $5 and annual permits are $30. The site provides 24-hour parking with dedicated vehicle-and-trailer parking available.

Beyond the boat ramps, Lakeside Park West is part of a comprehensive 400-acre recreation area offering additional amenities including a marina, kayak and canoe rentals, handicapped-accessible fishing platforms, and picnic facilities. The park's strategic location on Lake Winnebago makes it an ideal staging point for paddling adventures on this expansive water body. Whether you're launching your own craft or renting equipment, this facility provides the infrastructure and services needed for a full day on the water.
