The Mason Lake North ramp near Briggsville provides public boat access to 882-acre Mason Lake, which spans Adams and Marquette counties. This is a publicly-owned access point suitable for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboats. The lake has a maximum depth of 9 feet and features low water clarity, so paddlers should exercise caution and be familiar with local conditions before launching.
The lake supports a variety of fish species including musky, panfish, largemouth bass, northern pike, and catfish, making it popular with anglers. Visitors can also explore nearby recreation opportunities, including the Wisconsin River Islands and the Fox River National Wildlife Refuge in Marquette County. The relatively shallow depth and modest size make Mason Lake accessible for paddlers of varying skill levels, though the murky water conditions mean it's important to stay aware of underwater obstacles and maintain good visibility with others in your group.
