SPECIAL USE AREAS

Special Use Areas provide facilities that meet educational or recreational needs that are not generally
found in the County’s parks, greenways and trail corridors or wetland mitigation banking sites. Within
this section of park facilities are the lake accesses, golf courses, ice arenas, nature centers and exposition
areas. Some of these areas are located within park areas or greenways but most are stand-alone facilities.

Lake Accesses
Waukesha County maintains five lake accesses in Waukesha County. The County-owned lake accesses at
Nagawicka, Nemahbin and Pewaukee Lakes have launch fees, while the lake accesses at Ashippun and
School Section Lakes are non-fee. There are forty-three boat access sites located within Waukesha County
with twelve of them as carry-in sites along lakes and streams.

Golf Courses
Waukesha County golfers have many choices when it comes to golf courses. There are thirty golf courses
located within the county’s boundary: nineteen public, seven private and four semi-private courses.
