About Porters Lake

Porters Lake is a beautiful, no-wake lake located five miles northeast of Wautoma in Waushara County, Wisconsin. The lake is 77 acres in size with a maximum depth of 16 feet.

Porters is known for its clear water, and wide variety of fish...including rock bass and pumpkinseed. It's also great for the sounds of nature and calm waters while kayaking, canoeing, and paddleboarding.

Porters Lake features a boat launch, making it easy for property owners to get their boats in and out each season. In addition, the lake is home to a dam to control the water level.

An 1878 edition of the Historical Atlas of Wisconsin identified Porters Lake as Fairburn Lake, reflecting an earlier historical name for the lake.
