Robinson Pond

Robinson Pond sits at the top of the Wisconsin DNR grading rubric with an A, a mark reached by the cleanest lakes in Wisconsin. The three sub-grades — clarity, phosphorus, and chlorophyll-a — track close together, so no single parameter is dragging the average.

The lake's low TSI puts it in oligotrophic territory — the cleanest of the four trophic classes, but also the most vulnerable to nutrient-driven shifts. The lake's maximum depth is not yet documented in state morphometric records — context for its physical structure remains limited. Robinson Pond is small — 11 acres alongside partial shoreline records — which makes it sensitive to even modest changes in watershed runoff or recreational pressure. Robinson Pond ranks 1 of 4 in Jackson County, putting it in the upper tier of locally monitored lakes.

No invasive species are currently listed at Robinson Pond — the lake remains off the Wisconsin infested-waters roster. The state fisheries records do not list documented species for Robinson Pond, which usually reflects a lack of formal fisheries survey work rather than an empty lake. The grade is based on limited monitoring — fewer than three independent measurement years contribute, so future updates may shift the letter.
