Cannon River, Lake Byllesby Regional Park, Dam Public Water Access

This Goodhue County public water access point on Lake Byllesby offers a trailer boat launch, rest area, and fishing pier for anglers and paddlers accessing the 1,432-acre reservoir created by the 60-foot Byllesby Dam.

The dam itself presents a significant portage challenge for canoeists—a primitive, very steep, and difficult portage exists on the river right (Goodhue County side), making this primarily useful as a take-out or put-in point rather than a through-passage location.

Facilities include restrooms and picnic areas, with the nearby Dakota County Lake Byllesby Regional Park offering additional amenities including a campground if extended stays are planned.
