Vermilion Lake Boat Ramp

Moccasin Point is one of Lake Vermilion's most heavily used public boat ramps, featuring deep water access centrally located on the lake and serving both recreational boaters and barge operators. The site is currently undergoing a major $3.

2 million reconstruction funded through Minnesota's Get Out MORE initiative, with improvements including expanded parking (81 vehicle/trailer spaces), new boat ramps and docks, AIS inspection stations, and a heavy-duty barge loading ramp.

The access will remain open through May 2026, then close for construction from June through late summer/fall 2026; alternative public launches are available nearby, with Blackduck Bay being the closest option 1. 4 miles west.
