About This Access Site
Fountain Lake is a small, 16-acre lake in Portage County near Badger, Wisconsin, offering public boat access via a dedicated ramp located on Fountain Lake Avenue on the north side of the lake. The lake has a maximum depth of 23 feet, making it suitable for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorboats. This is an ideal paddling destination for those seeking a calm, intimate water experience on a manageable-sized lake.
The lake supports panfish and largemouth bass populations, making it popular with anglers as well as recreational paddlers.
