McGraw Lake in Burnett County, Wisconsin
This map has 8 layers
McGraw Lake is a 140-acre glacial lake nestled in Burnett County in northwestern Wisconsin, reaching a maximum depth of 25 feet with a clean, sandy bottom that supports excellent water clarity and a healthy aquatic ecosystem. The lake is home to a diverse fishery featuring Walleye, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, and Bluegill, making it a rewarding destination for anglers of all experience levels across both open water and ice fishing seasons. A public boat landing provides convenient access to the lake's calm waters, which are equally suited for kayaking, canoeing, and leisurely pontoon outings through the surrounding Northwoods scenery
McGraw Lake is situated in Burnett County, one of Wisconsin's premier outdoor recreation destinations, home to over 500 lakes and 14 rivers that draw anglers, paddlers, and nature lovers year-round. Burnett County is home to the state record hook-and-line Lake Sturgeon, a 170-pound, 79-inch fish caught in Big Yellow Lake in 1979, underscoring the region's extraordinary fisheries legacy. The area also offers world-class snowmobiling, ATV trails, hunting, and access to the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway — one of America's original wild and scenic rivers — along with the vibrant small communities of Siren, Webster, and Danbury just a short drive away
A laser-cut wooden map of McGraw Lake makes a stunning and one-of-a-kind piece of wall art for any Wisconsin Northwoods cabin, fishing retreat, or lakeside home. The natural wood top layer captures the lake's clean, organic shoreline in remarkable detail, while the light-to-dark blue gradient water layers bring its depth and character to life in rich visual dimension. Whether displayed above a fireplace mantle or in a den, this handcrafted map is a timeless and personal tribute to one of Burnett County's beloved Northwoods lakes

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these actually 3D or just engraved?
These are true 3D layered maps.
- Made from 1/8 inch Baltic birch
- Standard maps have 8 layers. 1 land layer and 7 water layers
- HD maps have 15 layers. 1 land layer and 14 water layers
Each water layer uses a light to dark blue gradient so depth changes are easy to see.
Where are these made?
Everything is made in my shop in Minnesota.
- Design
- Cutting
- Painting
- Assembly
- Frame building
The frames start as locally sourced rough sawn hardwood and are built from scratch.
Do you use real depth data?
Yes, as an angler and map nerd, accuracy matters to me. I use multiple data sources, up to six, to find the most accurate lake contours available.
I would not hang an inaccurate map in my house and I will not send one to yours.
Why buy from Horn Dog Maps instead of Etsy or marketplace sellers?
Most marketplace sellers:
- Buy pre-made cut files, often from overseas
- Have no connection to the lakes
- Cannot verify accuracy
- Have long delays if a file is not available
This leads to lower accuracy and longer lead times, often 6 to 8 weeks.
Because I design everything myself:
- I can create a new lake mockup in about 30 minutes
- You get a more accurate map, faster
What is your lead time?
Most orders ship in 1.5 to 2 weeks depending on the time of year.
Tell me about the Cribbage Boards
These are different from the layered maps and are not something you will find elsewhere.
- Made from a solid piece of Maple or Cherry
- The lake is engraved as if drained
- Then filled with blue tinted epoxy that is still transparent
You can see:
- Channels
- Humps
- Points
- Structure
Additional features:
- 2 or 3 track options
- Choice of peg colors
- Hidden peg storage with a magnetic dovetail slider
- Rubber feet so it does not slide on the table
It is a functional game board and a detailed lake model in one.
