Shell Lake
is a friendly community of just over 1,300
people located in rural northwestern Wisconsin. We are about 96
miles north of Minneapolis / St. Paul, 75 miles south of Duluth / Superior,
255 miles from Madison and 400 miles from Chicago.
The City
is unique because entirely within the City's corporate limits is
beautiful 2,580 acre Shell Lake. Shell Lake is the State's
largest landlocked seepage lake. It is about 36 feet deep at
its deepest; it is clear and clean; and it is an excellent place to
fish, sail, swim, or just relax.
In
addition to our wonderful lake, Shell Lake is home to the world
famous
Museum of Woodcarving, housing the largest collection of wood
carvings created by one man, Joseph T. Barta. We are
also home to the
Shell
Lake Arts Center, which has been providing a quality arts
education for over 35 years.
A
Lakefront Pavilion provides an excellent location for outdoor
concerts, picnics, family reunions, weddings and other events.
The Arts Center performs many concerts at the Pavilion, and there is
a free movie shown there every Monday evening during the summer.
With our
quiet atmosphere, plentiful recreational and cultural opportunities,
growing industrial and business park, and new housing developments,
Shell Lake is a great place to live and play.
Make Shell Lake your destination!
