Washburn Marina

Washburn Marina offers a well-maintained double-wide boat ramp with ample drive-through parking and trailer space, making it a convenient launch point for accessing Lake Superior. The facility operates 24/7 during the boating season and includes courtesy slips for temporary use while loading and unloading. Located on Lake Superior's south shore near downtown Washburn, the marina sits at the gateway to the Apostle Islands, making it an excellent starting point for kayakers and canoeists exploring this scenic region.

As a full-service facility, Washburn Marina provides amenities beyond the ramp, including fuel, a ship store, pump-out services, water, electricity, washrooms, and showers. Professional boat repair and a fish cleaning station are also available. For paddlers planning longer Lake Superior expeditions or day trips to nearby areas like Whittlesey Creek National Wildlife Refuge, this is a well-established hub with reliable infrastructure. Contact the marina at 715-373-5050 for specific information about seasonal hours, ramp conditions, or current services.

The Washburn Ranger District offers a variety of different activities to those seeking recreational opportunities. Great Horseback riding trails, OHV trails and Fishing can be found on the district.
