This is a great spot to begin your kayak or canoe adventure. From launch you will find two narrow waterways to explore which will take you to Round lake and Keller Lake. Note: The waterway to Keller lake has an elevation change which requires a short portage.

Food Scene

No visit to Stillwater would be complete with out a visit to Nelson's. This place makes the largest and most delicious ice cream you will find, bar none. Most can't finish the kiddy cone. Expect a line around the block, which moves along fairly quickly. It will take you that long to figure out which of their dozens of flavors you would like.
