The Stevens Point area offers many great places to launch a canoe or

of some rolling rapids, you’ll fi nd it around the Stevens Point area. Families 

and beginning paddlers should check out Lake Joanis in Stevens Point, a 

picturesque paddling route that features fl at routes and easy access. 

Intermediate paddlers can fi nd more of a challenge on the Upper Plover 

River in Stevens Point, a route that features generally fl at water with 

some rocky stretches. The Tomorrow River in Amherst offers another good

COMMUNITY 

RESOURCES 

The Stevens Point area is 

located in the heart of 

Wisconsin, at the crossroads 

of the Wisconsin 

River Valley and the 

Central Sands Region. 


When Stevens Point was founded in 1858, this was 

a community of loggers, fur traders and brewers. The 

community is still known for its outstanding beer and 

so much more: companies such as Delta Dental, 

Sentry Insurance, Travel Guard and Herrschners all 

call this place home. The University of Wisconsin– 

Stevens Point is one of the community’s treasures. 

The 400-acre campus includes Schmeeckle Reserve, 

the Wisconsin Conservation Hall of Fame, the 

Museum of Natural History, the Carlsten Art Gallery 

and the Allen F. Blocher Planetarium. 

Plover 

Just south of Stevens Point on the east shore of the 

Wisconsin River is the Village of Plover. This charming 

community is conveniently located at the crossroads 

of I-39 and Hwy. 51, and is home to a variety of 

retailers and businesses, including O’so Brewing 

Company and Great Northern Distilling. The village 

also has many great parks and the Korean War 

Memorial of Wisconsin at Lake Pacawa. 

Town of Plover 

The Town of Plover is a great place to live, offering 

peaceful surroundings just minutes from shopping, 

dining and other businesses. The town has a rich 

agricultural tradition and is home to some of the 

state’s largest vegetable farms. 

Amherst 

On the banks of the Tomorrow River, you’ll find the 

Village of Amherst, a quiet but thriving community with 

a very strong sense of place. Amherst is home to the 

Tomorrow River State Trail, Lettie W. Jensen Community 

Center and Central Waters Brewing Company. 

Other Gems 

The countryside is dotted with small communities 

like Junction City, Almond, Rosholt, Nelsonville, Park 

Ridge, Whiting and Amherst Junction. The rural Lake 

DuBay area in northwestern Portage County offers 

many recreational opportunities and encompasses 

most of the townships of Eau Pleine, Hull and Dewey.

Fun facts 

The Stevens Point Brewery, 

founded in 1857, provided 

beer to Union troops during the 

American Civil War. 

Stevens Point was historically 

part of the Menominee Nation. It 

was ceded to the United States 

in an 1836 treaty. 

UW-Stevens Point’s nickname is 

the Pointers. The school’s mascot: 

a dog named Stevie. 

The first Portage County Fair 

was held in 1869. Today the 

county has two fairs: one in 

Amherst in July; a second in 

Rosholt on Labor Day weekend. 

Every spring, people flock to the 

Buena Vista Wildlife Area to see 

the mating rituals of the prairie 

chicken–a threatened native 

species. 

There’s a disappearing race 

track in Portage County. The 

Winter Thunder Club races cars 

on an oval track on Lake DuBay– 

until the ice melts.
