Spearhead Point Shelter

About

Spearhead Point Shelter is a day-use group picnic facility situated along the western shore of 411-acre Mondeaux Flowage in the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest. The shelter is designed for group gatherings of up to 30 people and features picnic tables, grills, and two stone fireplaces. Accessible vault toilets and potable drinking water are available on site. The shelter is located within the larger Spearhead Point Recreation Area, one of the most popular destinations on the Mondeaux Flowage. Visitors can access boating, swimming, and fishing directly from the area, with anglers finding pike, largemouth bass, and bluegill in the flowage. A portion of the Ice Age National Scenic Trail is accessible nearby, offering hiking along the historic glacial edge. This is a day-use facility only and does not provide overnight camping. Overnight accommodations are available at the adjacent Spearhead Point Campground, which operates as a separate reservation.
