Virginia Lake Boat Ramp

Virginia Lake Public Boat Ramp provides trailer access to Virginia Lake, a 172-acre waterbody connected to Smithtown Bay of Lake Minnetonka in Carver County.

Located at 6665 Smithtown Rd, Excelsior, MN, this DNR-maintained facility offers convenient boat launching for anglers and recreational boaters accessing the lake's northern pike, panfish, and largemouth bass populations.

Note that water quality is poor with low dissolved oxygen in deeper waters during summer months, so anglers should avoid deep-water fishing during warm season months.
