Lake Redstone is a reservoir formed by a dam on Big Creek near La Valle in northern Sauk County of Wisconsin, United States.^[1] It was constructed by local lake builder Ike Issacson in 1964. A county park exists on the south shore, including a beach and waterfall.^[2]

The lake's surface area is approximately 650 acres (2.6 km²), with over 17 miles (27 km) of shoreline and 4½ miles long. Lake Redstone has a 19,200-acre (78 km²) watershed to the north from Juneau County that fills the lake. The dam is located at the south end and has a top draw spillway. All excess water creates a cascading waterfall and eventually flows into the Baraboo River.^[3]

Construction of the lake was started in 1964 by Ike Issacson.^[4] It was finished two years later, in 1966.^[5]

Lake Redstone has no mandatory owners association, but owners are encouraged to join the Lake Redstone Property Owners Association.^[6]
