Spearhead Point Campground is one of the most popular campgrounds on the scenic Mondeaux Flowage. Unique family-oriented campsites and access to panoramic views of the lake are unprecedented elsewhere in the forest. The campground provides numerous opportunities for recreation and enjoyment of the surrounding area.
The campground offers many single-family sites for tent and RV camping. Some sites are available on a first-come, first-served basis. No hookups are available. Each site is equipped with a table and campfire ring with grill. Accessible vault toilets and drinking water are provided.
A concession stand, coin-operated showers, a boat ramp and pay phone are available at the nearby Mondeaux Picnic Area. Some campsites have small docks which can be used for fishing or landing a boat.
The U.S Forest will be drawing down water levels on the Mondeaux Flowage this winter. The purpose of this drawdown is to improve the sport fishery by providing temporary control of weed densities; and thereby increasing winter oxygen levels, which reduces the potential for winter kill of fish. The drawdown will begin the week of September 30th, 2024, and be completed by the first part of November 2024. Water levels will drop approximately 2”- 4” per day for a total of 4-6 ft when completed.
The flowage will be refilled beginning March 1st, 2025, and be completely refilled by mid-April, 2025. There have been periodic drawdowns on the Mondeaux Flowage since the winter of 1971-72 with the most recent in the winter of 2017-18.
Operation of all ATVs & UTVs are prohibited in campground. View the Motor Vehicle Use Map (MVUM) here: Medford MVUM or access our MVUM maps on the go with the Avenza app.

The city of Westboro is about 10 miles from the campground.
Boating, swimming and fishing are popular activities. Anglers can expect to find a variety of species, including pike, largemouth bass and bluegill. Boats with and without motors are allowed on the lake, however the lake is quite shallow in some areas. A portion of the Ice Age National Scenic Trail is easily accessed from the campground. The trail is open to hiking and wanders 1,200 miles along the edge of a historic glacier that once covered the state of Wisconsin and much of North America.
