About

Peters Lake is a boat launch in Missouri, about 2.7 miles from the town of Fayette. It offers a put-in on the lake for paddlers and boaters exploring this corner of the state. For comfortable weather, aim for late spring or early fall. Typical averages from a nearby weather station run from highs around 75°F in May to about 79°F in September, with January highs near 38°F and occasional snow days from December through March. Paddlers looking for moving water can head to Bonne Femme Creek, about 3.5 miles away, or Doxies Creek, roughly 7.9 miles out. Both are canoeing spots within an easy drive of the launch.
