Minocqua & Woodruff Wisconsin Area Activities

More than just great fishing...

 

Swimming, boating and playing in the water of Northern Wisconsin

Enjoy swimming at several sandy beaches on Madeline and Carrol Lakes. If you like to boat we offer a pontoon boat, rowboats, canoes, kayaks and paddleboats so you can enjoy a leisurely cruise on Madeline Lake to simply watch the sunset.

Canoeing and Kayaking!

If a relaxing paddle is more your speed, we offer canoes and kayaks. The beautiful still waters of Madeline Lake are just the ticket. The Chequamegon Adventure Company in Minocqua, WI offers guided kayak and canoe trips on the Trout and Tomahawk river, the Turtle Flambeau Flowage and Wisconsin Rivers, and for a real treat a tour of the Apostle Islands. They also offer lessons and equipment rentals.

Like to Fish?

Madeline and Carrol Lakes offer a wide variety of fish including walleye, northern, musky, bass, great spring crappie, and everyone's family favorite—pan fish!
