Turtle Flambeau Flowage
A near-wilderness of fish, osprey, woods and water preserves the wild character of Wisconsin’s Northwoods.

The Turtle River was one of the travel routes used by the Indians for many years prior to arrival of the fur traders. It was also used by French voyageurs as a secondary route to Lac du Flambeau. The main fur trading route into the region followed a combination overland and water trail from the mouth of the Montreal River on Lake Superior through present day Mercer, down the Manitowish River to the Bear River and then upstream to Lac du Flambeau.

Land bordering the flowage varies from level terrain to steeply rolling hills. The woodlands consist primarily of aspen, northern hardwoods and white birch. Scattered old-growth hemlock and pine provide top-quality nesting habitat for eagles and osprey. Grass openings scattered throughout the forest add habitat diversity and increase the variety and total numbers of wildlife.
It is truly a natural treasure!

Our Top Reviews
Five of us came up for a week of fishing and had a great time. Plenty of fish. Great house with a bedroom for each. House had all the necessities and the body of water reminded me of Canada. Very few homes on the water. We didn't get in the car once so I can't say much about the amenities off the lake or in town but mercer is 30 minutes away and when we drove through there is plenty there. Someone else mentioned the stumps. Highly recommend GPS or a good lake map as they are in abundance. Great time. Great location. Bring your bug spray 🙂
We stayed here with 3 families all together. There was more than enough room and the house was beautiful! Definitely recommend!
My husband and I ended up staying here all by ourselves in September 2013 which made this place seem like a mansion! We had the most romantic time cuddled up by the fireplace and enjoyed the majestic beauty of the lakefront and peace it brings. Can't wait to come up again!! Everything was clean and impeccable.
Roc's place is great and well situated for large groups. The lower is set up like a separate apartment with a full kitchen, full bath, two bedrooms and a couch. The main level has a nice main area for gathering around the fireplace and dinning as well as a full kitchen, kind of like a great room set up. There is a bedroom off the the kitchen and a full bath as well. Upstairs has two additional bedrooms one with two twins and a futon the other with a queen and again large full bath. The bathrooms were very clean and the kitchen was as well. All beds were comfortable with fresh linens. The log house set up was very cool. The Number 9 trial is just down the road and that gets you north very quick. Great value.
