Banner Marsh State Fish and Wildlife Area

Banner Marsh State Fish and Wildlife Area is a scenic wetland popular for kayaking, canoeing and wildlife watching; visitors frequently note abundant lilies, swans and calm water. Fishing is commonly better from boats than from shore due to limited shoreline access and vegetation, though anglers report catching large bass. The area offers trails and a peaceful atmosphere but has rough access roads with potholes and limited facilities (porta‑potties); occasional litter and some boaters not observing no-wake zones have been reported. Staff assistance has been helpful to some visitors. Plan accordingly for boating access.
