About Straight Lake State Park

Straight Lake State Park is a Wisconsin state park north of the village of Luck. The DNR describes it as a roughly 2,000-acre property where trails offer scenic overlooks of its lakes and landforms left by glaciers. Campers can use ten walk-in sites, and boaters can reach the water at carry-in launches on the south side of the park's two lakes. A picnic area with a reservable shelter is also available. The Ice Age National Scenic Trail passes through the park, running along the north shore of Straight Lake before following the Straight River.
