Getting Outdoors
You can’t go on a Pontiac Lake Recreation Area camping trip without having a dip in the water or jumping on a boat to find your own piece of paradise in the water. There are three boat launch ramps on the lake, two of which have ADA-accessible docks and make it a breeze to access the water. Although there are few restrictions on the water, it’s generally understood that the open expanses of water are reserved for powerboating (jet skiing, wakeboarding, and sailing), and the shallower water and hidden tributaries reserved for smaller boats like your kayaks and canoes. If you’re RV camping at Pontiac Lake Recreational Area without your own vessel, it’s easy enough to pick up your own rental from one of the two marinas sitting on the shoreline.
