Wisconsin Valley
Improvement Company

Wisconsin Valley Improvement Company operates the Wisconsin River Reservoir System under Federal Energy Regulatory Commission license. Since 1907, we have been storing and releasing water in 21 reservoirs over the seasons for water conservation, flood control, low flow augmentation and regulation of a uniform flow in the Wisconsin River. Recreation is one of this vast resource's greatest public benefits. WVIC provides many recreation opportunities at our 21 reservoirs. Here are links to more information about a few of our more popular recreation facilities.

Rules and regulations for recreating on Wisconsin Valley Improvement Company land

Cedar Falls Campground

The rush of the falls. The solitude and pristine beauty of the Willow Flowage. The whispering boughs of mighty pines on thousands of acres of undeveloped forest land. All this is yours at the Cedar Falls Campground.

Burnt Rollways Boat Hoist

Welcome to the Burnt Rollways Boat Hoist operated by Wisconsin Valley Improvement Company. We'll hoist your boat up into the Three Lakes Chain of Lakes, the largest chain of freshwater lakes in the world, or down into the Eagle River chain below.

Recreational Facilities Assistance Program

The WVIC RFAP program is intended to serve as a process through which WVIC can cooperatively participate in the renovation, improvement and development of non-WVIC recreational facilities through financial or in-kind assistance to public recreation site owners.
