About

Boulder Lake Campground is the largest public campground in the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest, situated in a stand of young hardwoods overlooking 362-acre Boulder Lake. The 99 campsites include 89 single-family sites and 10 group sites accommodating 6-30 people. Some waterfront sites offer direct lake access while inland sites provide a quieter experience. Electric hookups are available at sites 9-16 and 40-54. The campground features flush toilets, vault toilets, hot showers, potable water from hand pumps, and an RV dump station. Each site includes a picnic table and fire ring with grill. Recreational amenities include a paved boat ramp with parking for 20 vehicles, an expanded swim beach, hiking trail with wooden boardwalk, and an amphitheater for occasional educational programs. Boulder Lake supports power boating, water skiing, and excellent fishing for walleye, northern pike, bass, and panfish. Ice fishing access is maintained in winter with plowed boat ramp and parking. The Wolf River nearby offers whitewater rafting and canoeing opportunities.
