Water temperature
Modeled surface-temperature estimate built from seasonal climate, lake depth, and live National Weather Service air temperatures near this lake.
Seasonal estimate. Checking current National Weather Service air temperatures…
Comfortable summer pattern. Bass and panfish are active; early and late hours beat the midday heat.
Estimates are modeled, not measured. Actual temperatures vary with depth, wind mixing, and recent weather — verify conditions before swimming, boating, or heading onto ice.
DNR water check
Historical volunteer-monitoring record for this lake.
DNR volunteers monitored this lake for about 40 years, ending in 2020. Its final monitored summers showed slight haze water (~8.1 ft Secchi) in 2016, very low algae (chlorophyll ~2 µg/L) in 2016, and low nutrients (phosphorus ~20 µg/L) in 1982. After 6 years without samples, these readings describe the lake as it was, not as it is.
The DNR station record reports activity through 2024, but LakeList holds no readings after 2020 — check the station reports for anything newer.

Depth FAQ
Round Lake is 67 feet deep at its deepest point and averages about 30 feet, according to Wisconsin DNR records.
Yes. LakeList publishes a free interactive depth contour map of Round Lake at a typical 5-foot interval, with an optional 3D underwater view, derived from LakeList depth model survey data.
The interactive depth contours are derived from LakeList depth model. Each contour set passes a visual QA review against the source document before it is published. The depths are a modeled estimate calibrated to the lake's documented maximum depth - not a survey, and not for navigation.
