Perch Lake is one of the walk-in camp areas in the Nicolet. Located just west of Whisker Lake Wilderness, this trail circles picturesque Perch Lake. If you're interested in a secluded camping experience, this trail leads to five walk-in campsites with tent pads, tables, fire rings, and wilderness-style toilets. There is no drinking water supplied.

If you'd like to try fishing, the lake is stocked with bluegills and bass. There is a canoe launch at the lake. No motorized boats are permitted. The campsites are between 1/4 and 1 mile from the parking area. There is no fee for overnight camping. Perch lake is open year round.
