Townsend pairs small-town ease with big-outdoors energy. The Town of Townsend sits in northern Oconto County, moments from Lakewood and Mountain, where pines, clear lakes, and rolling trails shape daily routines. Weekends often begin on the water—Townsend Flowage and neighboring lakes invite early-morning fishing, quiet paddles, and sunset cruises—and continue under the tall canopy of the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest. Riders prize the all-season access to the Nicolet State Trail and the county’s connected ATV, UTV, and snowmobile routes, meaning adventure starts minutes from the driveway. Winter brings groomed trails and silent-forest snowshoeing.
Life here balances recreation with practical convenience. Local supper clubs, outfitters, and seasonal markets keep essentials close, while a broader run to Green Bay puts major shopping, healthcare, and entertainment within easy reach, and a quick drive to Crivitz adds more dining and services. Families look to the Wabeno Area School District for academics, activities, and strong community ties, and parks, boat landings, and trailheads give kids and adults plenty of room to roam. Housing spans classic lakeside cabins, updated year-round homes, and wooded acreage, making it simple to match lifestyle and budget.
