Minocqua Lake

A 1,339-acre reservoir, reaching 60 ft deep in Oneida County, Wisconsin — large enough for wake boating where local rules allow.

Reviewed by WakeSurfSpots Editorial Team · Updated

Minocqua Lake is a public lake in Oneida County, Wisconsin that covers about 1,339 acres and reaches roughly 60 ft at its deepest. At that size there is room for a wake-boat lap when the water is open and rules permit.

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.

This listing is drawn from state lake records — it reflects size and access, not a track record as a wakesurf venue. Wisconsin sets statewide wake-boat rules, and individual lakes routinely add no-wake zones, hours, or horsepower limits. Check the Wisconsin rules page and the local ordinance before you launch.
