Murphy Lake

Murphy Lake's public boat access is located on the northwest shore near Eveleth in St. Louis County, providing convenient access for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorboats. The ramp accommodates vessels up to 12-18 feet, with most launches able to handle boats in this range. There are no launch fees at this access point unless visiting during peak season or if a vehicle permit is required—check local regulations before your visit.

The lake supports a modest fish community of bass and panfish, making it a popular spot for anglers as well as recreational paddlers. This is a straightforward, no-frills access point ideal for a casual day on the water.
