About This Access Site
The Nemahbin Lakes boat ramp provides public access to Lower Nemahbin Lake via a concrete launch located on the channel between Upper and Lower Nemahbin Lakes in the Village of Summit, Waukesha County. The ramp is approximately 20 feet wide and can accommodate various watercraft, including kayaks, canoes, and motorboats. **Important note:** A low bridge connects the two lakes—ensure your boat and any overhead gear can fit under it before launching.

Parking is designated for car-top watercraft only, and the Village of Summit requests that boaters carpool or seek alternative locations when possible to preserve lot availability for active launchers. Vehicle access to the lakes is restricted under Village ordinances. The site uses a license plate-based entry system for daily permits and annual memberships, so have your plate information ready. This is a good option for paddlers looking to explore the interconnected lake system in the area.
