Located in Portage County, Wisconsin, the village of Rosholt is home to a gravity dam on Flume Creek, completed in 1885 for recreational purposes. The dam stands at 14 feet high with a hydraulic height of 8 feet, creating a storage capacity of 106 acre-feet and a normal storage of 37 acre-feet. With a surface area of 18 acres and a drainage area of 12 square miles, the dam has a low hazard potential and is classified as satisfactory in condition.

Although the dam has a controlled spillway width of 87 feet, it poses a moderate risk due to its age and the need for periodic modifications. The last inspection in November 2018 showed no immediate concerns, but the dam is subject to state regulation, permitting, inspection, and enforcement by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. Despite its age, the dam continues to serve its purpose for recreation, offering a serene spot for water resource and climate enthusiasts to appreciate the beauty of Flume Creek in Rosholt.
