About This Access Site
The Rice Lake public boat access in Centuria provides convenient launch facilities for paddlers and boaters exploring this 859-acre lake in Polk County. The ramp is located near Veterans Memorial Park (formerly known as the community park on Orchard Beach Lane), which offers full ADA accessibility, parking, restrooms, picnic shelters, and grills—making it a well-equipped access point for a day on the water.

Rice Lake is a shallow to moderate-depth lake with a maximum depth of 19 feet, making it suitable for kayaks, canoes, and small motorboats. The lake supports a healthy fishery including Musky, Northern Pike, Walleye, Largemouth Bass, and Panfish, so you'll likely encounter anglers alongside paddlers. With public boat access available, this is a popular destination during peak seasons. For current conditions, facility details, and parking information, contact local Wisconsin DNR resources or visit the park directly before your visit.
