CONSTRUCTION NOTICE FOR GRUNDMAN BOAT LANDING: During 2023, the Grundman Boat Landing will be undergoing a major reconstruction project. The boat landing will be closed from July 5 until the end of the year. The timeline for this project is subject to change. While the Grundman Boat Landing is closed, vehicles with a valid Winnebago County boat trailer parking permit sticker can also use the Recreation Park boat landing (600 S. Park Ave.) in Neenah or the Menominee Park (820 Hazel St.) boat landing in Oshkosh. Boaters will be able to use these two additional boat landings from July 5 until December 31, 2023.
The Winnebago County Board approved the $1.8 million improvement and renovation project for the Grundman Boat Landing. Supporting grants from the Fox River/Green Bay Natural Resource Trustee Council and the WI DNR Recreational Boating Fund are funding approximately 63% the project. The improvements will address several issues at the boat landing including: expanded parking, larger staging area, additional launches, safer layout, improved lighting, bathroom facilities, small shelter, floating dock, kayak launch and enhanced walking trail. A new well is also being installed with the hope of adding a future boat wash station.
2023 Winnebago County boat landing trailer parking permits are available for purchase online.
ABOUT WINNEBAGO COUNTY BOAT LANDINGS
The Winnebago County Parks Department collects Winnebago County Boat Landing Trailer Parking Permit Program fees from mid-April through the end of October. Likewise, the Parks Department will start issuing warnings and citations for violations of the program rules during this time. Boat landing users can either purchase an annual/three-year permit or pay the daily fee. For more info please call the Winnebago County Parks info line at (920) 232-1960 option #2.
Winnebago County permits do not apply to all landings located in Winnebago County. The Winnebago County Parks Department owns seven boat landings, to which Winnebago County permits apply. All other boat landing permits should be purchased at the municipality of the jurisdiction for the area you are launching.
The Boat Trailer Parking Permit Program provides the county with a stable source of funding thereby allowing it to continue to provide a high standard of care for the boat landing properties. In order to facilitate this process, all revenue derived from the program is directed towards an account reserved for the maintenance and improvement of Winnebago County boat landings. Ordinance No. 19.24(1)
