About Chippewa Flowage
The Chippewa Flowage is a 15,000-acre lake located in central Sawyer County, northwestern Wisconsin, with 233 miles of shoreline owned by a mix of public, tribal, and private entities. The State of Wisconsin owns approximately 50% of the shoreline, the Lac Courte Oreilles Tribe owns about 30%, the National Forest accounts for 12%, and private landowners hold the remaining 8%.

State Highways 27 and 70 connect from the south. The nearest DNR service center and property office are located on Highway 27 in Hayward.
