About This Access Site
Round Lake Boat Ramp offers convenient access to Round Lake near Boulder Junction in Vilas County. The facility features a paved concrete boat landing with a short access (less than 50 yards), parking lot, and pit toilets. This is an excellent launch point for kayakers and canoeists of all skill levels looking for a relaxed paddle on a small inland lake, with scenic views ideal for both sunrise and sunset outings.

From this ramp, paddlers can explore Round Lake itself or venture into a chain of connected lakes including Pike, Amik, and Turner lakes, providing excellent opportunities for extended trips. The area is also part of the Chequamegon National Forest system and serves as a trailhead for the Flambeau Motorized Trail. The surrounding landscape offers wildlife viewing opportunities, and the nearby Round Lake Trail (3.5 miles) provides a hiking option for those wanting to explore by foot.

For those planning an overnight trip, Pomeroy Lake Camp and Moosehead Lake Camp are both within 10 miles and offer campground facilities on a first-come, first-served basis, with the option to pay via the Recreation.gov app's Scan and Pay feature.
