Minocqua sits at the heart of Wisconsin’s Northwoods, a region of thousands of lakes, pine and hardwood forest and generations-old family cabins. The town itself is nearly surrounded by water, earning it the nickname “the Island City,” and it serves as the shopping and dining hub for the summer homes and resorts that ring the surrounding chain of lakes. Tourism, second homes, outdoor recreation and the businesses that support them make up most of the local economy, along with healthcare and forestry.

The Northwoods are a long drive from the cities: about five hours from Milwaukee, six or more from Chicago and four from Minneapolis, often on two-lane roads. Lakeland Airport in nearby Woodruff has a paved runway just minutes from town, and Rhinelander’s airport is about 20 miles away, so a private flight makes a long weekend at the lake realistic. Visitors spend their days boating, fishing for musky and walleye, biking the Bearskin State Trail and watching the Min-Aqua Bats water ski show, and winters bring snowmobiling and cross-country skiing.
