About Lake Lavina
Lake Lavina in Iron County, Wisconsin, offers a unique seasonal experience for those who appreciate quiet, shallow waters. Covering 62 acres with a maximum depth of just 6 feet, this lake features a distinctive environment dominated by sphagnum moss and wild cranberry bogs. Much of the lake is boggy, with less than half open water, creating a natural setting that supports rare flora like pitcher plants and jack-in-the-pulpit. The lake's proximity to towns such as Hurley, WI, and Ironwood, MI, situates it within a peaceful rural landscape. Copper Falls State Park lies nearby, adding to the area's natural context. This shallow lake's character makes it a special spot for those interested in exploring Wisconsin's diverse aquatic habitats beyond typical fishing destinations.
