Morgan Lake Access

Morgan Lake offers a well-maintained boat ramp and day-use facilities in the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest near Fence, Wisconsin. The clear, 45-acre lake is an ideal destination for kayakers and canoeists, with an electric-motors-only policy that keeps the water peaceful and suitable for paddling. The ramp is located at the Morgan Lake Campground and Group Site, which also features a sandy beach, picnic area, vault toilets, and drinking water.

To access the ramp, head north from Laona on Highway 139 for 11 miles (from Highway 8/139 intersection), then turn east on Forest Road 2159 and drive approximately 8 miles to the campground. The facility is open year-round and available for both day-use and overnight camping. For reservations or additional information, contact the site at (715) 479-2827. Note that this is a remote location in northern Wisconsin at 1,500 feet elevation, so plan accordingly and bring supplies before arriving.
