Silver Lake in Laona, Forest County offers a public boat ramp and pier developed on a scenic 12-acre wayside park. The concrete launch facility accommodates canoes, kayaks, sailboats, and rowboats, making it a versatile access point for various paddling and boating activities. Parking is available on-site.
The lake reaches depths of up to 44 feet and supports a healthy fishery including musky, walleye, northern pike, bass, panfish, and catfish—useful context if you're combining paddling with fishing. Paddlers looking to extend their trip can find a nearby campground option at Richardson Lake Campground (reservable) within 10 miles, making this a convenient base for a multi-day paddling adventure in the area.
