Columbus
Kekoskee
This quaint village offers scenic views of its historic Millpond and the picturesque Rock River from atop the bridge which traverses one of Wisconsin’s few privately-owned dams. Other than its natural beauty, the Rock River also offers popular fishing and canoeing opportunities, and two village parks allow visitors to picnic or play to their heart’s content.

Kekoskee’s popular eating establishments will help satisfy your appetite or quench your thirst... one of which offers the “Best Food by a Dam Site,” while other is famous for its “Marsh Burger” and homemade pizza. Bear in mind that after Kekoskee, the next refreshment stop on your northbound marsh tour is over 20 minutes away.

If you have a little more time to explore, be sure to stop at the flower shop, known far and wide for its garden center and large selection of unique gifts. You may also want to check out Kekoskee/Williamstown Historical Society’s soon-to-open museum where you will learn many interesting facts about the local area and its history. Even the nearby cemeteries have some historical relevance because of the many gravesites of early settlers, including some Civil War veterans and other notable individuals.
