Our Lakes, Castle Rock & Petenwell

Juneau County, WI is centrally located in Wisconsin making it a perfect location for both business and pleasure! Its east boarder is formed by Wisconsin River, and is also home to the second and fourth largest lakes in the state, Castle Rock Lake, (13,955 square acres), and Lake Petenwell, (23,040 square acres).  Juneau County is home to about 68 Parks including Buckhorn State Park, Wilderness County Park and Castle Rock County Park.

Private lakefront property is very limited as most of the virgin shoreline is undeveloped forest. Wildlife abounds including one of the larger populations of wintering bald eagles in Wisconsin. Game Fish include walleye, northern pike, bass, panfish, and musky.

While the area is quite rural and unspoiled in flavor, its amenities are plentiful.  It has excellent restaurants; an 18-hole, par 72 golf course (originally rated among the top 75 public courses in the country) and a choice of two casinos within 30-40 minutes driving time. The lakes are about 20-30 miles north of the Wisconsin Dells.
