Also plan on packing in all your drinking water. The lake water is not considered potable and campsites are not equipped with wells or drinking water taps. The Turtle-Flambeau Scenic Waters Area offers the opportunity to camp, fish and enjoy the outdoors in a scenic, wilderness setting. The undisturbed wooded shorelines and islands make the flowage unique. If you visit the property , please help us protect that setting by leaving no trace of your visit.
Land bordering the flowage varies from level terrain to steeply rolling hills.
The woodlands consist primarily of aspen, northern hardwoods and white birch. Grass openings scattered throughout the forest add habitat diversity and increase the variety and total numbers of wildlife. The forest surrounding the Turtle-Flambeau Scenic Waters Area is managed to protect fish, wildlife and the flowage s scenic qualities. A 300-foot aesthetic zone buffers the entire shoreline in which no timber harvesting will occur. A number of other areas receive special management to protect unique natural communities.
