Boating Fun In Wisconsin

What are the best places to go boating in Wisconsin?

  • Lake Noquebay (Green Bay): This beautiful 2,398-acre lake is accessible from public boat landings, and if you are a fan of fishing, the summer produces the best selection, including bluegill, panfish, crappie, largemouth and smallmouth bass, northern pike, walleye, and trout. For those who want to watch from the shore, the beach is a great spot, offering calmer waters, and picnic spots.
  • Eagle River Chain of Lakes (Cloverland, Lincoln, Washington, Eagle River): The chain is comprised of 10 lakes connected by the Eagle River. The area encompasses 14 miles between the two endpoints including 70 miles of shoreline. And because the Eagle River Chain connects to the Three Lakes Chain of Lakes it is the largest chain of inland lakes in the world. These waters are highly popular with anglers because the chain sits in a busy tourist area of Wisconsin whose shores offer ample boat landings, motels, resorts, public parks, and campgrounds.
  • Pontoon Porch (Madison): If you don't have a boat — no problem. You can book a ride on one at Pontoon Porch. The two-level boat has a screened-in porch for maximum views. Up to 30 passengers can ride at once offering a great place for a family reunion or a wedding party. Bring your own food and use the on-board grill. Sit back on the relaxing porch furniture, watch the wildlife, and listen to your favorite music on this wheelchair-accessible and dog-friendly ride.
