Fireside Lakes is a 211-acre lake in Rusk County offering public boat access via an established boat landing near New Auburn. This size lake is suitable for kayakers, canoeists, and motorized boaters looking for a moderate paddling or boating experience. The public landing provides convenient access to explore the full extent of the lake.
Before visiting, check with the Wisconsin DNR or local Rusk County resources for current conditions, any seasonal closures, and specific amenities at the landing (such as parking availability). Given the lake's size, paddlers should assess wind and weather conditions before heading out, as larger lakes can develop chop quickly. This is a good option for both day trips and those seeking a relatively accessible freshwater paddling destination in northern Wisconsin.
