Pigeon River Fish & Wildlife Area

The Pigeon River Fish & Wildlife Area offers a boat ramp providing access to Sacarider Lake in Kendallville, Noble County. This expansive 12,134-acre protected area features 529 acres of lakes and impoundments, making it an excellent destination for kayaking, canoeing, and boating. The site is well-established, having been operating since 1956, and serves as a hub for multiple water-based recreational activities.

When visiting, plan to launch from the designated boat ramp and use the available parking lots. The area supports diverse recreational opportunities beyond paddling, including fishing (a primary draw for the site), hiking, and picnic facilities. Be aware that this is an active hunting and wildlife management area, so check for any seasonal restrictions or advisories before your visit.
