Dog Lake Boat Launch

The Dog Lake Public Boat Launch is located at 1830 Hitchcock Drive in South Frontenac Township, Ontario, providing access to Dog Lake via the Cataraqui River and Rideau Canal system. The launch is managed by South Frontenac Township.

A separate, informally known launch point on Dog Lake — referred to as "the shipyards" — sits just east of Battersea and is noted by local anglers as a convenient spot with an easy ramp and docking system.

Dog Lake lies north of Kingston and supports fishing for species including splake, walleye, pike, and bass.
