Located near Skandia in Marquette County, Sporley Lake offers a hard-surfaced boat ramp suitable for small to medium-sized watercraft, operated by Van Riper State Park. The 68-acre lake features several boat docks, making it a convenient launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboat users. The ramp is well-maintained and can accommodate larger vessels like bass boats.
This is an accessible option for paddlers of all skill levels, including families and beginners. Note that amenities are limited—there are no loading docks or restroom facilities at the ramp itself, so plan accordingly. The lake's calm waters and nearby docking areas make it a good base for exploring Sporley Lake and the surrounding waterways in the region.
