**Location & Access:** Spring Lake's public access is located north of County Road 42 on Hillary Path in Lengby, Polk County. Note that Hillary Path is minimally maintained, so plan your route accordingly. This is a small access site best suited for smaller watercraft.
**Water Conditions & Suitability:** Spring Lake is a shallow water body with numerous snags, making it most appropriate for kayaks, canoes, and other small boats rather than larger vessels. The shallow conditions require careful navigation, so local knowledge or reconnaissance is recommended before launching. Paddlers should be prepared for potentially challenging water conditions.
**Maintenance Notice:** The Minnesota DNR is conducting maintenance and site improvements at this access. Work may affect access availability, so contact the DNR ahead of your visit to confirm the ramp is open. Given the remote location and ongoing construction, plan your trip with flexibility in mind.
