ABOUT THE AREA

The Bad River Reservation was established by the 1854 Treaty of La Pointe with the U.S. government and was sited along the beautiful shores of Lake Superior and Chequamegon bay. This treaty was finalized on September 30, 1854 at Lapointe on Madeline Island, the longtime capital and cultural / religious center of the Ojibwe AKA Chippewa Nation.

Bad River is the largest Chippewa reservation in the state at 124,459 Acres. The reservation boundaries encompass lands in two counties and six municipal townships with 36 miles of Anishinaabeg-Gichigami (Lake Superior) shoreline and over 488 miles of rivers and streams. The 1854 Treaty also set aside 200 acres for traditional “fishing grounds” on the largest island of the 22 Apostle Islands, Madeline Island.
