Ellington blends peaceful countryside living with easy access to the Fox Cities. Tree-lined roads lead to family farms and new builds, while daily conveniences and major employers are a short drive in Appleton and Greenville. Set in Outagamie County, the town values community—think potlucks at the town hall, youth sports on nearby fields, and neighbors who actually know each other. Weekend outings often include coffee in Hortonville, produce from local stands, or a sunset cruise around the region’s lakes.
Families appreciate strong schools anchored by the Hortonville Area School District, known for advanced academics, robust arts, and standout athletics at the high school level. Lifelong learners find nearby colleges and a lively arts scene in Appleton, while everyday shopping and dining cluster along retail corridors in Grand Chute.
The outdoors is a daily perk. Trails and prairie boardwalks at the Gordon Bubolz Nature Preserve make quick after-work hikes possible, while cliff-top views and marina access at High Cliff State Park reward weekend explorers. With four true seasons, residents swap bikes for snowshoes as the year turns, then reconvene for farmers markets and local festivals.
