Escape the crowds in a community that loves the outdoors

Our modern lives are full of pressure and noise. In a crowded city, it is hard to find opportunities to unwind. Urban life leaves you starved for fresh air and outdoor activities. Budget limits your vacations but in Northern Wisconsin, you have affordable options. 

Find freedom in open water and winding trails

Imagine yourself casting a line - reeling in a large walleye, or paddling across a peaceful lake. Picture hiking the Ice Age Trail through breathtaking hardwood forests. This is your reality in Rib Lake, where outdoor adventure awaits you. Choose your adventure and set your own pace. Start disconnecting from stress and exploring the options.
