Mississippi River, Coffee Pot Landing, #2 Public Water Access Site

Coffee Pot Landing is a primitive canoe access point on the Mississippi River Headwaters Water Trail, approximately 15 miles downstream from Lake Itasca, featuring Adirondack shelters, fire rings, picnic tables, and an outhouse—all free and first-come, first-served.

The site offers both water access via canoe landing areas on both sides of the river and road access via County Road 9 near Solway, making it a convenient layover for paddlers tackling a challenging stretch with rocks, downed trees, and one short portage.

Note that there is no potable water available; campers must filter or treat water from the river.
