I'm fairly sure that there's no public access when the lake is iced over. I think the launch is closed for public access.
Is there anyone on the lake willing to allow myself and my 3 boys to walk through your yard to get onto the lake? Send me a private message if you'd be willing. Thanks!
I'm curious: Why the OP would think the launch is closed during winter?
A number of years ago the launch parkig lot was posted 'No Parking' after ice-up. It just didn't seem kosher to me so I called Merton town hall,the county sheriff's dept and the WDNR. Nobody knew anything about the signs but somebody from Merton town hall told me - off the record - that a neighboring homeowner had tried and failed to have that done legitimately. It was likely that the homeowner - after failing to have it done legally - simply went ahead and posted their own signs.
