Lakeview Park

Lakeview Park provides a small public boat ramp on Rib Lake, a 320-acre lake in Taylor County, Wisconsin. The ramp is situated in a protected cove, making it a relatively sheltered launch point for kayaks, canoes, and small motorboats. However, the parking area is limited, so arriving early during peak seasons is recommended. The park charges a day-use fee ($10 per vehicle standard rates), and facilities include restrooms and picnic areas.

Rib Lake offers two public boat landings and three wheelchair-accessible public docks for water access. Paddlers should note that this is a relatively modest facility compared to larger regional access points. For boaters needing more extensive amenities—such as a courtesy dock, fuel, or live bait—the Belton Lakeview Park on the west shore is an alternative option with a larger ramp and more services. The lake itself is sheltered by surrounding terrain and is suitable for recreational paddling and fishing.
