Armour Lake

A 328-acre lake, reaching 56 ft deep in Vilas County, Wisconsin — large enough for wake boating where local rules allow.

Reviewed by WakeSurfSpots Editorial Team · Updated

Armour Lake sits in Vilas County, Wisconsin that covers about 328 acres and reaches roughly 56 ft at its deepest. Being a smaller lake, any wake-boat use hinges on the local ordinance and how busy the water is.

No public access point is listed, so confirm how (and whether) you can legally launch. Its typical warm-weather window runs June–August, based on Open-Meteo 2019–2023 daily-high climatology.

Armour Lake appears here on the strength of its size and public access, not any reputation for surfing. Wake-boat regulation varies by state and by individual lake, so verify the Wisconsin rules and the local ordinance first.
