2022 Map of Webb Lake

About this map

The Saint Croix National Scenic Riverway dominates the northern reaches of this Wisconsin landscape, where the river bends around Big Island and the high ground of Big Hill. This area of Burnett County is defined by a dense network of glacial lakes and wetlands, connected by small waterways like Perkins Cr and Webb Creek. Local history is anchored by the small settlement of Riverside on the western edge and historic burial sites such as Swiss Cem and the Hillcrest Cem Association. The map reveals a transition from the protected river corridor to the lake-studded interior, where prominent water bodies like Webb Lake, Twentysix Lake, and Des Moines Lake provided the foundation for local recreation and early settlement patterns. A complex system of trails, including the Saint Croix Trl and Snowmobile Trl, underscores the region's modern reliance on seasonal tourism and conservation.
