Well-known for our pristine lakes, the Sportsman’s Motel is located on South Turtle Lake, a Class A Musky lake.

Straight from the Sportsman’s dock, putter up the chain into North Turtle or Rock Lake. No need to leave for amazing fishing! But you can, of course, visit any one of the 1,300 lakes in Vilas County. Catch dinner and make memories during every fishing season.
