All Tofte Area Lakes with Boat Access

About this campground

Many lakes in the Tofte Ranger District have boat ramps and docks suitable for launching a trailered boat.  These lakes are open for use by motorized boats, but of course are also available for non-motorized boating also.  Most of these lakes have minimal aids to navigation, so be aware of your depth and the presence of rocks. Lakes with carry down access outside of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area are also open to motorized boat use, but you will have to carry the boat and motor.  Some accesses are right off the road, but some are long trails or portages from other lakes. Some of the lakes also have 'backcountry' campsites on their shores, often accessible only by boat.  Visit our Dispersed Camping page for more information on these campsites. The map and table below give information on lakes with boat access.  Look under the 'Access' columns to find lakes with boat ramps, and under 'Facilities' to find lakes with campsites.  Map reference letters and numbers match those on the Forest Map which you may purchase.  They also correspond to latitude and longitude for GPS use and to USGS quadrangle maps.  The same map and table as well as additional information can be seen as an ADA compliant pdf file suitable for reading electronically or printing; click here to load.   Click the preview map above for larger, readable map.
