New Lisbon sits along the Lemonweir River in Juneau County, a small city with outsized access to outdoor recreation and easy connections to nearby hubs like Mauston, Tomah, and family-favorite Wisconsin Dells. Weekends often revolve around the water—Castle Rock Lake is minutes away for boating, sandbar picnics, and four-season fun, while the beach, trails, and wildlife at Buckhorn State Park make spontaneous adventures simple. Birders and photographers also find a sanctuary at the expansive Necedah National Wildlife Refuge just up the road in Necedah.
Families appreciate the strong community feel and student-centered offerings of the School District of New Lisbon, with academics, athletics, and arts supported by engaged local partnerships. Downtown’s historic storefronts host cafes, services, and small businesses, and city parks set the stage for youth sports, riverfront strolls, and summer events. Housing options range from cozy river-view cottages and tidy in-town bungalows to newer builds on quiet cul-de-sacs and hobby-farm acreage just outside the city.
Whether you’re relocating for the lake lifestyle or sizing up for more space, New Lisbon offers value, elbow room, and genuine community.
