Must Do's
This thriving business community also offers a variety of outdoor recreation and entertainment opportunities for all ages to enjoy. Lake Mills is home to the Winnebago County Freedom Rock, a breathtaking Arlington Veterans Park, downtown murals and a "Promise of America" sculpture. Dive into area history with a visit to the 1901 Victorian House and Gardens or catch the latest movies at the historic "The Mills" Theater.

Outdoor Adventures & Exciting Eateries
Discover all kinds of outdoor adventure at nearby Rice Lake State Park: boat or fish on the lake, go bird watching or enjoy a picnic at the lodge. Get in a round of golf at the award-winning 18-hole Rice Lake Golf & Country Club, or test your putt-putt skills at the free mini golf course. During the heat of the summer, cool off at the Lake Mills Family Aquatic Center. Or, spend a day outside with family at the community's two playgrounds, 9-hole disc golf course, skatepark, and tennis and pickleball courts. 

After you get your nature fix, refuel at the downtown's collection of restaurants. Dine inside a vault at Teluwut Bar & Grill, which is housed inside an old bank. Grab a juicy burger and watch your favorite sports team at Tim's Corner. Relax in comfort with a signature coffee, gourmet sandwich or fresh salad at Swallow Coffeehouse. Or sample local brews and wines at 5 Alarm Brewing and Lazy Acre Vineyard.
