Nippersink Lake is located in Northwestern Lake county, between Grass Lake Road and Route 12. Free access (FWA fees may apply) is available at Chain O'Lakes State Park. Small boaters (canoes/kayaks....) please be sure to wear your PFD, you never know when a powerboat will pass you at great speed.

Directions to State Park: If your taking the Illinois Tollway, exit at Illinois 173 (Rosecrans Road), and head west. Turn left at Wilmot road and watch for signs for the State Park. The State Park is located on Grass lake, This is a shallow lake and most power boats will want to be sure to follow navigation buoys to Nippersink Lake.
