Atrain	07/07/2019 01:50PM We stayed at one of the northwest campsites on that rocky point and swam to the island and back. Nice and deep right off the rocks at camp. Depends if you’re looking for sandy beach or jump rocks. Also just at the bottom of Curtain falls has a nice little swimming hole. Beautiful lake

BobDobbs	07/02/2019 07:24AM the lsland site has a nice, albeit rocky beach. wear foot protection - both for the rocks as well as fish hooks. Iron is full of both.
WhiteWolf	07/01/2019 03:43PM Beach site on the far east side, just SE of Curtain Falls. Other areas near 3 island -- just S in a pinch between an island and shore.
Banksiana	07/01/2019 03:37PM I'd steer clear of the area above Rebecca Falls.
Richwon4	07/01/2019 12:05PM Are there any good swimming spots on Iron Lake? We will be going mid-summer this year to a lake I have not been on in more than 12 years at least.
