Come and enjoy all that life has to offer in this laid back area teeming with wildlife and natural wonder. There's so many things to do. Some of the nation's finest biking trails are just down the road. Golfing, horseback riding, hiking, snowmobiling, ATV riding, hunting, antiquing, camping promise a great time. Stop by Woodside Sports Complex and take in a game of baseball, America's favorite pastime. Looking for some fun on the water? How about canoeing on the Lemonweir River, boating on Castle Rock Lake, or fishing on the Petenwell? It’s all just outside your door! Relax at the end of the day at one of our pubs, bars and restaurants. From fast food, to beautiful fine-dining, to casual lakeside pubs, we're sure to please every palate. Then wind down after a busy day with a campfire and a little stargazing. As part of the ‘driftless’ region of Wisconsin, you will find many bluffs and buttes that are a delightful surprise. It's interesting to note that these were once the tops of islands that dotted the surface of what was once Lake Wisconsin. Time seems to stand still on our breathtaking country backroads. Our towns have retained the charm and wholesomeness of days gone by, often reminding our visitors of their youth. Our natural beauty brings year round pleasure to our residents and visitors alike. Whether you're looking for quiet solitude or fun and activity, you'll find it in the Greater Mauston Area.

🎄 Lights, Camera, Holiday Spirit! From the North Pole to the Silver Screen 🎬

This year, the City of Mauston invites participants to step into a world where Christmas movie magic meets the wonder of Santa's North Pole Workshop. From beloved holiday classics and memorable movie characters to bustling elves, toy-making magic, and Santa's sleigh preparations, the possibilities are endless.

Whether your float recreates a scene from a favorite Christmas film, brings the North Pole to life, or combines the two in a unique way, we encourage you to showcase the joy, imagination, and holiday spirit that make this season so special. Gather your friends, family, coworkers, classmates, or organization members and help us transform our streets into a celebration of Christmas magic.

Join us as we bring the wonder of the silver screen and the enchantment of the North Pole to the heart of Mauston for a memorable holiday tradition the whole community can enjoy. ✨🎅🎄🍿
