About Castle Rock Lake

Castle Rock Lake covers about 12,981 acres in Adams County, Juneau County, Wisconsin and is classed as a reservoir. The surface sits about 883 ft above sea level and the deepest point is roughly 35 ft down.

We have not matched Castle Rock Lake to a public level gauge, so the water level on this page comes from NASA's SWOT satellite, which measures the lake surface from orbit on each pass. Wind, gusts and rain come from the National Weather Service forecast grid that covers the water.

With this much open water, waves build quickly when the wind lines up with the long axis of the lake. Pick a launch on the upwind shore on breezy days and the ride home is easier.

The go or no-go calls above are a starting point, not a guarantee. Read how we score conditions, and always check local rules and posted warnings before you launch.
