About This Access Site
**Location & Access:** The Loon Lake boat ramp is located on 10th Street NW just off Highway 14 in Jackson, Jackson County, making it easily accessible for day trips and weekend outings. The concrete plank ramp is equipped with a roll-in dock, providing convenient launching for kayaks, canoes, and motorboats.

**Lake Character:** Loon Lake is a 1,095-acre inland lake with a firm, sandy bottom and 14 miles of shoreline—ideal for paddlers seeking calm, scenic conditions. With a maximum depth of 202 feet and generally quiet waters due to limited development, the lake offers peaceful paddling. The sandy bottom near the boat ramp allows for easy wading and shore access, and an ADA-compliant dock is available for those who need it.

**Fishing & Recreation:** The lake supports a healthy fishery including bluegill, crappie, bass, northern pike, and bullhead, making it popular with anglers. With minimal development and only 1 campsite on the lake, expect a quieter paddling experience compared to more heavily used waters in the region.
