The Turtle-Flambeau Scenic Waters Area is a true Northwoods wilderness experience. Created in 1926 by the damming of the Turtle and Flambeau Rivers, has become a sanctuary for adventurers and wildlife alike. Encompassing over 40,000 acres of wilderness, the area holds history in its pocket and provides a rare opportunity to check out from your daily life and step into the kind of experience that makes for a lifetime of storytelling.
