Unfortunately not.  Ripple Lake is a small lake which makes it perfect for kayaking and paddle boarding.  Because it is a small Lake it is hardly ever rough, which means the Lake can be enjoyed almost everyday.  There is not a public launch or a place ro rent a boat.  Only cottages that surround the lake can access it.

For insurance purposes we are only allowed to accept bookings from guests 25 years of age or older.  We do require the names & ages of all accomanying guests.

Water toys such as the Lake Mat, Kayaks, Row Boat, ect… are available for use starting the Victoria Day long weekend in May until Thanksgiving weekend in October.
