Ellingson Lake Public Water Access Site features a DNR-owned concrete boat ramp located along the southeast shoreline, providing public access to this 138-acre eutrophic lake near Clitherall.

The site is typically open 24 hours and accommodates watercraft up to 18 feet in length, making it suitable for both motorboats and paddlers exploring the lake's abundant emergent vegetation and shallow waters (71% less than 15 feet deep).
