FAQ
  About Aeronautics
May I land a seaplane on any lake?
 
Answer:
This issue is still being debated in the court system, but generally speaking, if there are no local zoning laws prohibiting motorized aircraft operations on the PUBLIC lake, you can land on it. Private lakes are considered private property and you will require prior permission from the owner.
