Beautiful Chetek, Wi is located in northwest Wisconsin’s Indianhead region. Located on a chain of 6 lakes, Chetek offers over 130 miles of shoreline.

There are many things to enjoy outside of the scheduled events like the drive-in theater, live music venues, fun on the lakes, and more. Additionally, there may be some organizations/groups that choose to host their own events that weekend and we will share those if we hear of them.

We will be working on updating the website shortly and continuing to post information there as well as here.
