Motor Mill Boat Ramp

Motor Mill Boat Ramp provides a scenic concrete landing and parking area on the Turkey River, located a quarter mile downstream from the historic Motor Mill site.

The access point features an outhouse and is a major pick-up/drop-off location for canoe liveries, making it a popular take-out for paddlers completing the 7-mile trip from Elkader.

Adjacent camping is available at Motor Mill Campground across the road, and the landing offers excellent photo opportunities with limestone cliffs as a backdrop.
