The small town with a BIG SMILE

The City of Chetek invites you to enjoy the beauty of our lakes and year-round recreational activities. Located on the shores of Chetek and Prairie Lakes, which are part of the famed Six Lakes Chain encompassing many miles of shoreline, tourism has been a major industry in Chetek for more than five generations. The Chetek area has much to offer, whatever your interests. The prime attraction to Chetek is, of course, our fabulous Chetek Chain of Six Lakes – Chetek Lake, Prairie Lake, Pokegama Lake, Ojaski Lake, Ten Mile Lake and Moose Ear Lake. All together these lakes cover some 3,800 surface acres with over 120 miles of shoreline, dotted with islands and many quiet bays. People come to these lakes annually to fish, to swim, to sun, in short, to just enjoy all that such a tremendous resource as these lakes have to offer.
