Public access sites

Browse the public access sites below, then choose one to see photos, available amenities, directions, and more. All the sites are public, though some have no parking or facilities. These undeveloped sites may still offer a place to launch a paddlecraft from shore or come ashore if the weather changes. Check each site’s page before you go to learn what’s available.

Each site has a story. Together, they reveal how the lake and river have shaped life here—and how people have shaped these shores in turn. You’ll find stories of Indigenous peoples whose connections to these waters reach back generations, along with those of explorers, workers, settlers, and the communities that gather here today. Whether you’re planning a visit or curious about a familiar place, there’s more to discover at every stop.
