Lake Vermilion Boat Ramp
Lake Vermilion Boat Ramp
Lake Vermilion Boat Ramp on Denmark Road offers access to a 1,000-acre reservoir near Danville with a $10 daily launch fee for motorboats and paddlecraft.
The main ramp serves power boats, but paddlers can access a free alternative by driving north within the launch area to wooden stairs and a dock (approximately 25-30 stairs down, with the dock sitting 2-3 feet above water).
The lake supports both motorized recreation (unlimited horsepower boating, jet skiing, water skiing) and paddling, with a no-wake area at the north end featuring wildlife viewing opportunities.
