An Oasis of Sparkling Lakes, Towering Pines, Abundant Wildlife, and Friendly Hospitality
At the top of Wisconsin, you’ll find a place where wilderness is alive and flourishing. Water draws people to picturesque Presque Isle, whose name in French means “Almost An Island.”
Enjoy abundant natural resources with contemplative endeavors such as hiking, birding, and photography, or faster-paced activities like boating, biking, and snowmobiling. Our diverse trails and pathways, water and waterfalls, and glacial hills and forests provide outdoor enthusiasts with plenty to do all year long.

Our History Then...
Nearly 300 years ago, shipwrecked French priests on the shores of Lake Superior made their way down a river to an area they christened “Presque Isle,” or “Almost an Island,” because of the vast stretches of lakes and rivers that dwarfed the land. The advent of the logging era brought development in the early 1900’s. In 1905, Presque Isle was known as Fosterville, after one J.J. Foster who built and operated a large saw mill. William S. Winegar bought the mill in 1910 and the fledgling community was renamed “Winegar.”

www.presqueisle.com
When the mill closed in 1933, the great “Lumber Baron” era came to an end. Today the mill ponds are visible from the village and make up our flagship park: Pipke Park.
In l955, the village name was changed once again. Reflecting the wisdom and farsightedness of early French missionary priests, we finally became... “Presque Isle” – Almost an Island.
A visit to the Heritage Society Museum in downtown Presque Isle will take you back to these simpler times.
Our History Now…
Presque Isle’s Pipke Park is rich in history and wildlife, and boasts excellent yearround recreation. The site includes two “ponds” with trails and fitness equipment; the neighboring woods a 2.8 mile trail system ideal for hiking and snowshoeing. The ponds and wooded trails are bisected by the quiet flow of the Presque Isle River.
In the early 1900’s, the Vilas County Lumber Co. was built on the edge of the ponds and utilized the water as “hot ponds.” Exhaust steam from the mill kept the water thawed all winter. Logs were piled in and transported via the railway which made its way past the ponds and into town to a railway turntable. In 1933, the lumber mill closed.
By 1950, a new vision emerged. The ponds were now being used by the State as rearing ponds for raising Walleye. The project proved highly successful, eventually developing into the largest walleye rearing operation in the State, with millions of fry distributed to lakes throughout Wisconsin. By the 1990’s, the State no longer had funding to continue, and much of the surrounding land was deeded back to the Town. In the mid-2000’s... a town park was developed, and includes ice skating and a warming hut in the winter, and fishing, walking/hiking, biking, and birdwatching throughout the spring, summer, and fall. The American Legion Post #480 sits on the entrance to the site; and a new Wilderness Veterans Flame Memorial is nestled along the shoreline and access pathway. The park and hut are always open to the public, with parking, indoor restrooms, tables indoors and out, and additional amenities for all to enjoy. 715-686-2910

A designated Bird City and home to hundreds of nesting Osprey and Eagle. Our glacial hills and crystal waters will make you an enthusiastic discoverer of Wisconsin’s Last Wilderness. HUNTING
When considering the thousands of acres of prime hunting grounds surrounding Presque Isle, it is difficult to envision a more ideal place to base your trip. We are sandwiched between the Ottawa National Forest with one million acres of public land to the North, and the Northern Highland State Forest with 250,000 acres of public lands in the other directions. In addition, paper company land, managed forest cropland, and other large tracts provide enthusiasts with many more acres to explore.
KEY DATES:
• Northwoods Bird Festival at the North Lakeland Discovery Center and highlighting two Presque Isle locations: May 11-12
• Annual Bird Counts including the Midwest Crane Count and Christmas Bird Count. See discoverycenter.net for more info. • Youth Turkey, Waterfowl, and Deer Hunts in April, September, and October. See dnr.wi.gov for more info.

• Border Trails System: Cyclists will find 100 miles of paved backroad trails that provide exceptional scenery and sense of quiet. Located along the Wisconsin border, the system runs into Michigan through some of the most beautiful, rolling lake country the region has to offer. Parking available at the Presque Isle Community Center.
• Heart of Vilas County: Choose from 60 miles of connected trails in Vilas and Iron Counties. The trail is fully paved, primarily off-road and appropriate for all types of bicycles. Stopover spots along the way include ice cream parlors, beaches, scenic bridges and picnic tables.
• Presque Isle Road Trail: Start in downtown Presque Isle and follow the road route and easy off-road sections as you loop around ponds, take in quiet back roads, and enjoy a nice out and back ride, with areas to stop and enjoy a swim or picnic.
SNOWMOBILING: The region offers hundreds
of miles of trails meandering through vast stretches of pine and hardwood forests, and around numerous lakes. We are blessed by the Lake Superior Snowbelt and see more snow than most other Wisconsin locations. Ride to a new Vilas County or Upper Peninsula destination every day of the week to experience fantastic scenery, hospitable restaurants and taverns, and cozy lodges. Our Sno-Bunnies do a superb job grooming, with frequent endorsements as “the best trails in the region.” MidwestSnowmobiling.com

GEOCACHING: Did you know our town was once named “Winegar”? We have combined technology with historical facts, introducing visitors to the treasure hunt known as “Geocaching”. This activity allows people to get outside and enjoy nature while utilizing e-devices. This spring, a series of geocaches will be placed throughout the township; highlighting some of the people, places, and events that helped shape our village, from the logging days of the 20’s, through the tourist boom of the 60’s, and beyond.

MOUNTAIN BIKING: The WinMan Trails are a network of silent sport trails in neighboring Winchester. Spanning 1300 acres of private land and public Northern Highlands State Forest recreation land, over 5 miles of purpose-built single track trails and terrain offer excellent opportunities for mountain biking and fat biking. A new chalet, instructional and social activities, and a top-notch trail system that caters to beginners and experienced riders make this a destination not to be missed. WinmanTrails.com
STAR GAZING: Dark skies are essential for getting clear views of the night sky, the Milky Way and even the aurora borealis (aka northern lights). Known as “Wisconsin’s Last Wilderness,” Presque Isle has few streetlights and quiet, spread-out homes and resorts, ideal for night sky viewing. Much of the sky’s treasures are visible with the naked eye, or bring a set of binoculars or your telescope for enhanced viewing.
