Northeastern Wisconsin has an abundance of outdoor activities for your vacation pleasure. The gateway to this playground is Crivitz. Crivitz and the near north area are a short drive from most urban areas around the state, and close enough from neighboring Illinois for a great weekend getaway. So….what is Crivitz the gateway to? This area features more miles of trout streams than anywhere else in our state. Large water attractions are the Peshtigo River Flowage, which includes High and Caldron Falls and Lake Noquebay. The flowages are in excess of 3,000 surface acres of superb fishing water, sandy beaches, and pristine shoreline viewing. The state property surrounding the flowages provides a number of well-maintained boat landings for easy access to most locations. The Peshtigo River is also popular for rafting. White water rafting is located northwest of Crivitz and is considered some of the best in the Midwest. Rafting quiet water on the river is popular in and near the Village of Crivitz itself. Lake Noquebay is 2,300 surface acres, perfect for waterskiing & fishing. Spring pan fishing here is extremely popular and the bluegill season brings children of all ages to its shores. Marinette County and the DNR maintain several

boat landings for access to this big water playground.

Besides the “Big Water,” hundreds of smaller lakes are spread throughout our backyard. Most have public boat landings to access the quiet water some look for in our North Country. Off the water, trails, both ATV/UTV and snowmobile, spread north and west of Crivitz accessing the vast public forests owned by Marinette County, State of Wisconsin, and National Forests. Over 300,000 acres, with trails zig zagging throughout. Maybe a sightseeing trip is of interest to you. The winding roadways throughout the area are attractive for a scenic drive on your way to the many waterfalls located throughout Marinette County.

Known as the waterfalls capital of Wisconsin, several selfguided tours can be done in half day or full day trips.

Well, there you have it, close by and easy access to nature's playground. Come for the day, weekend, or week. We are blessed with resorts, hotels and campgrounds throughout the area.

The Peshtigo river flows into Green Bay some 7 miles south of the City of Peshtigo here in Marinette County. The river begins its journey about 80 miles to the north near Crandon WI. It flows through woodlands, farmlands, highlands, and lowlands. It has more rapids than any other river in Wisconsin. Over 100 years ago, in the early 1900’s (1907-1911) the High Falls Dam was constructed to produce electricity for the area. It began operating in 1911. The Johnson Falls Dam began construction in 1922 and began operating in 1924. The Caldron Falls Dam was built a bit later (1924-1926), and began operating in 1925. Happy 100th Birthday CFD! High, Caldron, and Johnson Falls are the 3 dams located west of Crivitz on the Peshtigo River Flowage. Besides performing the original goal of producing hydro-electricity, they contribute to the economic progress and recreational enjoyment for central Marinette County. Additional Dams have been constructed further east in Marinette County since that time and contribute to that area in similar fashion. Until 2004, most of the shoreline of these flowages was owned by Wisconsin Public Service. In 2004 the State of Wisconsin finalized a purchase of a great majority of that property. The state then owned 12,200 acres of land, 3,000 acres of which is under water. In 2019 the Peshtigo River State Forest was re-named Governor Earl Peshtigo River State Forest. On the west side of the flowages Governor Thompson State Park was constructed. Over the past decade improvements to the park have continued. Trails, camping and boat landings are just a few of the amenities available (check out the state park article in this guide). Each of the dams is an awesome sight to behold. Sightseers gather near the dams during spring high water and throughout the year to watch and hear the thunderous cascades rumble into the river below each dam. The locations of these dams is described in the Marinette County Waterfalls tours section of this guide.

Histo

ry

Another dam vital to a Crivitz waterway is the outlet dam on Lake Noquebay. Lake Noquebay is Marinette County’s largest inland lake. It’s surface area is estimated to be 3.76 miles in size. Maximum depth is 51’. Unlike the flowage dams, the Noquebay dam does not generate electricity.

The current dam was constructed in 1929. A more primitive dam was know to exist on the current site before this date but was blown up in 1915 in an effort to lower water levels surrounding the lake. This dam is used to help water levels on the lake and surrounding shoreline. The dam is currently owned by Marinette County and operated by the Lake Noquebay Rehabilitation District. The lake level is lowered each falls to help control shoreline erosion due to ice movement. Each spring the levels are increased to enhance the shoreline appeal of the lake. The Lake Noquebay outlet flows into the Peshtigo River just southeast of the Village of Crivitz.

W Haetaed r ekr i ShowS s

F

ounded in 1962 by Peter and Dan Bugarsky, the Crivitz Ski Cats Water Ski Team was the first of its kind in Marinette County.

The Ski Cats proudly hold five Division 2 State titles, including the unprecedented “three-peat” championships in 2011, 2012 and 2013. They are a family-based organization consisting of approximately 65 members, with several families providing three generations of skiers and non-skiing personnel. You can catch the Cats perform throughout the summer on Wednesdays and select Saturdays at Lake Noquebay County Park, which is about 6 miles east of Crivitz.

The Twin Bridge Water Ski Team was formed in 1971. Leon Popp was one of the founding members of the team and is still skiing in the shows. They bought their first boat for $850 and gas was under 50 cents. Times sure have changed in the past 50 years, but the team still has the same passion and love for skiing as back

then. The Twin Bridge Water Ski Team performs west of Crivitz on High Falls Flowage at the Stephenson Town Park Thursdays and Saturdays.

At both shows, food and refreshments are available for purchase.

Bring your lawn chair or blanket to watch the show. These shows have a new theme every year and are excellent entertainment for the whole family. You will see some of the best skiers in the state of Wisconsin, including those who have skied professionally all over the world. You will see unbelievable barefoot pyramids, large ballet lines, mixed doubles, 4-tier pyramids, tricks and jumping that will have you asking, “how did they do that?!” www.CrivitzSkiCats.org | www.TwinBridgeSkiTeam.com

un in the sun here gives friends and families the chance to recreate outdoors together in a safe and enjoyable setting. Sandy beaches are plentiful throughout the Crivitz area. Here is a quick tour of popular beaches in and around Crivitz: Let’s start at Left Foot Lake just southwest of Crivitz and one of the newer beaches to be improved by the Marinette County Park system. It has public parking and a sandy swimming area with a neighboring boat launch.

Or consider the beach at Little Newton Lake. This beach was modified and improved by the Town of Stephenson some years ago for greater safety and a more user-friendly environment. A public parking lot is located just across the street. This beach has clean sand with a gentle taper of lake bottom. There are public restrooms and lots of sand to lie on along the shore.

On Caldron Falls Flowage, off of Boat Landing 9 Road, there is Musky Point Beach, which is a very nice sandy beach area with picnic tables and grills for your convenience.

Lake Noquebay Park has a sand beach that is shallow enough for the youngsters to splash around. This is a 2,300-acre body of water that is a well-known water playground. The park has many other amenities that help add to its popularity, some of which include the boat landing, playground area, outside showers, bathhouse, restrooms and recreation center.

If you want more to do in the water than just swim, maybe a raft trip is in order. The portion of the Peshtigo River located northwest of Crivitz has long been popular as a Midwest rafting destination. Whitewater rapids and waterfalls are mixed in with some quiet water that allows you to catch your breath after the first bout of excitement on this Northwoods treasure.

The beach at Twin Bridge Park is popular with boaters and skiers. The High Falls Flowage is 1,500 surface acres with wild shoreline and numerous boat landings. While the boaters boat and the skiers ski, the rest of the group wiggles their toes in the sandy beach area. There are restrooms and dressing rooms, picnic tables, sand beach and playground. Camping is offered.

Back on the lakes, resorts provide boat rentals on the bigger bodies of water in our area. Rent a pontoon boat or a rowboat and tour the flowages or Lake Noquebay.

Summer is a busy time of year and activities and events are always scheduled in the area. Check out the calendar of events at crivitz.com or visitcrivitz.com.

ake on the terrain, pedal through the poplars, and ride the rocky runs of Marinette County’s new Strong Falls Mountain Bike Trail system. These boulder-strewn singletrack forest trails have something to offer riders of every experience level, whether that be smooth flowing, easy green routes or daring black diamond technical rock features, climbs, or jumps.

Nestled northwest of Crivitz, near Goodman Park and McClintock Park, in the heart of Marinette County’s 230-thousand-acre public forest, this trail system is delightfully remote, but close to pre-existing campgrounds, hiking trails, miles of gravel, ridable forest roads and waterfall viewing opportunities. Phase one of this trail system, completed by IMBA Trail Solutions and Rock Solid, boasts roughly eleven miles of trails.

Strap on your helmets and get your bikes ready, the Strong Falls Mountain Bike Trails are now open.

orse riding trails are becoming more and more popular in Marinette County due to the efforts of club riders.

One of the newer trails is located on the east end of Lake Noquebay, just 5 miles northeast of the Village of Crivitz.

The Clip Clop Trail Riders Club is a non-profit club serving this area. The new trail is nestled in a parcel made up of 3,200 acres of Marinette County Forest Lands. The trail winds through wooded upland areas and some lowlands and is just the right mix of gently rolling hills and level ground. The club secured donations and went to work improving, building and maintaining 20 miles of trails and a campsite area with picnic tables, fire rings and high lines used to tie up horses. A leisurely ride on the trail takes about 6 hours. Horseback riders and the general public are welcome. Hikers are encouraged to use this asset as well. A Marinette County Parks sticker is required if you decide to camp. Donations for trail improvements are accepted but not required. For additional trail information and information on joining the Clip Clop Trail Riders Club, email clipcloptrailriders@gmail.com.

T

he Crivitz area is not only the Gateway to the North; it is home to picturesque roadways designated as Rustic Roads. Two scenic roadways provide quiet beautiful trips through the local Northwoods.

Rusti

c Roa

ds

The first is on the east side of Lake Noquebay; it travels through the wildlife area consisting of over 1,000 acres of county forest property.

This road accesses a cross-country ski trail and connects with an even larger body of Marinette County Forest land. Noquebay’s Rustic Road (Right of Way Road) is beautiful and takes only about half an hour.

Whatever your choice, a relaxing drive in the Near North is a great way to enjoy a vacation day.

The second Rustic Road is west of Crivitz and starts south of the Marinette County line. A 10-minute drive west of Crivitz on County Road W will bring you to Parkway Road. Parkway Road (aka County Road I, north of County Road C) is a beautiful roadway that twists and turns along the west side of the Peshtigo River flowages when you are traveling north of County Road W. Several boat landings are accessed off Parkway, and a stop to take in the beauty of the pristine shores of the flowages is highly recommended. Continue your journey north of County Road C, and “rustic” becomes even more evident. North of County Road C, the road turns to a gravel roadway cutting through much of Marinette County’s wilderness forestlands. The Peshtigo River (now on the west side of the road) plays guest to a couple of the county’s most popular parks, Goodman and McClintock. Camping, hiking, biking and access to trailways are along your entire journey. The Parkway Rustic Road can absorb most of a day, depending on how many of the landings, camps and parks you may stop to enjoy.

Fall C

E

ach fall, where the Dairyland turns to forest, the colors turn into a visual playground that attracts fall visitors looking to see nature’s handiwork. No two autumn scenes are alike. Each year brings a change in favorite tour areas.

You can do a little shopping and have a cup of coffee or a milkshake while you take your own fall colors tour.

T

he Crivitz area – indeed all of Marinette County – is flush with bird watching opportunities. The abundant woods, forests, fields, wetlands, rivers and lakes offer ample places for birders, naturalists and others on ecothemed vacations to see multiple species of songbirds, birds of prey, upland birds, wading birds and waterfowl.

Hawks, osprey and bald eagles rule the skies from above, while perching/songbirds go about their daily business raising their young and filling the air with pretty songs. Our beloved loons are a common sight on the larger lakes and blue herons can be seen stalking the shorelines. Once you see (and hear) a pileated woodpecker, you’ll never forget that one! Nor the sound of a great horned owl during the evening hours.

here the great northern forests meet America’s Dairyland ­ – this is where abundant wildlife has a chance to roam for miles and miles without coming in contact with people on a regular basis. Numbers of deer, upland game birds and waterfowl are seen regularly as you drive our winding country roads. If you are lucky and have a keen eye, you may get a glance at some of the more cautious wildlife hiding in the forest, like wolves, coyotes, bobcats, bear, and let’s not forget Bigfoot. We have to admit though, most of those reports are made anonymously. Take a short drive to public land. Then go for a walk in the woods with your dog and favorite shotgun, and you can let go of all of the stress that everyday life builds around you.

Maybe you prefer sitting quietly in a deer stand waiting for the “king of the mountain” to stroll by. Hunters love our “Gateway to the North.”

By Mike Mladenik From muskie to panfish, anglers will find ample opportunities in the Crivitz area. Lake Noquebay, encompassing 2,400 acres, offers productive panfishing opportunities year-round. Both bluegill and crappie demonstrate robust growth rates, with high-quality specimens available. During May and June, anglers focus on the shallows, utilizing finesse techniques and light lines to target the more selective larger bluegills.

The lake also supports a healthy population of largemouth bass, providing consistent fishing action. Muskie, walleye and northern pike are also present.

The muskie fishery on High Falls Flowage and Caldron Falls Flowage is second to none with 50-inch plus muskies caught annually. While the flowages have historically produced trophy muskies the 50-inch minimum size limit has greatly enhanced the fishery.

If you're in search of a walleye dinner, High Falls Flowage should be your go-to spot. The prime time for walleye action is in May and early June, where walleyes can be found in 10-15 feet of water. A successful strategy involves fishing rocky points and emerging weeds with an orange or chartreuse jig tipped with a minnow. During the summer, focus on deep structures and use leeches or nightcrawlers. As the water temperature drops in fall, large walleyes gather and are eager to strike a red tail chub.

Smallmouth bass have long been a major draw at High Falls Flowage. In the spring, anglers should target the rocky shorelines using soft plastics and topwater baits. While smallmouth tend to hold tight to deep structures in summer, fishing weeds early and late in the day can be highly productive.

Both Caldron Falls Flowage and High Falls Flowage offer excellent largemouth bass fishing opportunities. Anglers can choose to fish the weed beds or focus on the shoreline wood cover for consistent action.

The High Falls Dam, Veterans Falls, Dave’s Falls, and Twelve Foot Falls are some of the waterfalls which will remain open to visitors during the winter. The High Falls spillway is viewable from the road. The other three have parking lots that are plowed. Walkways may be a bit tricky, so use caution. But the promise of rushing water skirted by ice and snow can be worth the trip. Passes to the parks can be purchased online at marinettecounty.com.

The Crivitz-Stephenson Museum focuses its collection on the rich logging, farming and tourism history of our area.

The Museum is located one block west of McDonald’s in Crivitz, at the intersection of Oak St. and South Ave., just across from the High School.

A must-see at the museum is the restored logging camp building originally constructed in 1872 on the shores of Lake Noquebay for the Peshtigo River Lumber Co. The building has been lovingly restored and houses a collection of the tools used by the early loggers. An area of interest in the building is a hand carved replica of an early logging camp. Visitors can see how the loggers lived, worked, ate and slept in the early logging camps.

Two other buildings of interest are the Honeymoon Cabin and the Conley Cabin. Both were used by people visiting our area. The Honeymoon Cabin was originally constructed on the island in Lake Noquebay. In 1895 the building was moved to the northwest shore of the lake and was a part of Ahle’s Resort for over 100 years as a cabin for vacationers.

The Conley Cabin was located at the intersection of Highways W and 141 (now Gateway Bar and Grill), representing an early motel for travelers to our area.

Our large collection of antique farm equipment lets you see how the early farmers turned the cutover country into productive farmlands. Museum members are currently reconstructing a 1909 dairy barn which will house our collection of antique farm equipment and allow visitors to explore the interior of an early dairy barn.

Inside our museum, browse through our displays showing how people lived in the early days of Crivitz. Look over our collection of Native American artifacts, along with being able to see what an early school room looked like.

Open Tuesday - Saturday 12:00 pm - 4:00 pm Intersection of Oak St. & South Ave. 1 block south of McDonalds Crivitz, WI 715-854-2101 | www.crivitz.com
