Potawatomi State Park

Potawatomi State Park offers a convenient boat launch facility on Sturgeon Bay in southern Door County, Wisconsin. Located on the park's two miles of Green Bay waterfront, this access point is ideal for kayakers and canoeists looking to explore Sturgeon Bay and the Lake Michigan Ship Canal. The park features an accessible boat launch, fishing pier, and fish cleaning station, making it a well-equipped facility for paddlers of all experience levels.

The 1,200-acre park itself provides excellent amenities beyond water access, including canoe and kayak rentals, picnic areas, and a nature center. Paddlers will find scenic views of the limestone cliffs and escarpment that characterize the area. Note that day-use parking requires a state park entrance fee (with an additional non-resident surcharge). The park's shoreline offers opportunities for leisurely paddling, and the Ship Canal provides an interesting shortcut route for boaters exploring the region.
