About Boulder Lake
Overview
Boulder Lake Campground is located on the shores of Boulder Lake in northern Wisconsin. It is the forest's largest campground but campsites fill up fast. The campground is home to individual and group sites, making it an ideal location to relax with friends or family. Recreational opportunities abound.
Recreation
Boulder Lake provides ample opportunities for power boating, water skiing, fishing and swimming. Anglers might catch walleye, northern pike, bass or panfish. Ice fishing is also popular on the lake, and the boat ramp and parking area are plowed during the winter to provide better access to the lake.
Nearby streams are good for trout fishing and in addition, the Wolf River offers whitewater rafting and canoeing opportunities. Educational programs may be offered sporadically at the campground's amphitheater.
Facilities
The campground offers dozens of accessible, single-family sites for tent and RV camping. Ten accessible group sites are also available for reservation. They can accommodate anywhere from 16 to 30 people.
Campsites are equipped with tables and campfire rings with grills. Accessible vault toilets, showers and drinking water are provided. Some sites offer electric hookup. A dump station is located within the campground. Some campsites are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Natural Features
The campground lies around the southern end of 362-acre Boulder Lake and is the largest public campground in the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest area. It is located in a stand of young hardwoods, overlooking the lake. Some campsites are situated along the water's edge and others are further away, providing a quieter camping experience. Puddles and damp spots are common throughout the lush campground.
Getting there
From Townsend, travel Highway T for about 17 miles to the intersection with Highway W. Turn onto Highway W and continue just over a mile to Forest Road 2116. Turn right and continue to the campground.

FAQ
How do I get a reservation at Boulder Lake?
Campsite Sniper's current snapshot shows none of the 2,574 tracked site-nights open for online reservation at Boulder Lake. That can mean dates are reserved, closed, not yet released, or offered first-come, first-served rather than online. Pick a site on the map to see its calendar, or set a free Campsite Sniper alert. You complete the reservation yourself on Recreation.gov.
Does Campsite Sniper book this campground for me?
No. Campsite Sniper sends alerts and direct Recreation.gov links. It never books, pays for, holds, hoards, or resells reservations.
How current is this availability data?
Campsite Sniper re-checks public Recreation.gov availability for this facility every hour and republishes whenever anything changes. This facility's data last changed at Sep 18, 2026 15:19 UTC; an older timestamp means nothing has changed since that time, not that checking stopped. Always confirm final availability on Recreation.gov when you book.
Which sites at Boulder Lake fit a 35-foot RV?
44 of the 68 sites that support RV analysis have a recorded maximum of 35 ft or more; the longest recorded is 255 ft. 46 of those 68 sites have a recorded maximum length and 22 do not; they are not counted as fitting.
Does Boulder Lake have online availability right now?
As of the Sep 18, 2026 snapshot, none of the 2,574 tracked site-nights are open for online reservation. That can mean dates are reserved, closed, not yet released, or offered first-come, first-served rather than online. A free Campsite Sniper alert tells you if any date opens online.
