Just in case you haven’t had time to get out and enjoy the fabulous fall colors we have had here in Tomahawk, I have posted a short video that will give you a taste of why this is the best time of the year in Tomahawk and the Northwoods.

Wisconsin River

Tomahawk, Harrison, and the surrounding areas have four distinctive seasons. Winter is cold and clear but it has it’s moments. Looking out over a field of freshly fallen snow has such a pristine look. So soft and  quiet, life just seems to be standing still.  Spring is when April showers bring May flowers and the awakening of life anew can be seen spreading across the land. Summer is the busiest time of the year as plants and animals grow into adulthood, boys and girls hit the beach running and sitting around a campfire telling tall tales becomes the norm.

But Fall is the Best Time of the Year! The feeling of a warm sun shining down on a flannel shirt warms the soul. The air is crisp & fresh and the green, yellow and red leaves paint a portrait of living art. Tomahawk in the fall is one of the most beautiful places on earth.

Willow Flowage

Nothing beats hoping in the car on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon with no particular place to go, football on the radio and the fall colors in windshield. Take a trip down Highway 107 along the mighty Wisconsin River or drive out County Trunk D in the Harrison Hills. Wherever you go the scenic canvas will be spread out in front of you. For a real treat take County Trunk A to Highway 17, through Rhinelander to County K onward to Y and up to the Willow Flowage. You’ve heard the saying “Back door friends are the best”? Well, during the fall, back country roads standout above the rest. If you’re tired of driving, put on an extra sweater and take the boat  out one last time. Seeing the  colors from Nokomis, Mohawksin or any one of our many lakes is a sight that is worth the extra effort.

If your from down South, head up North. If you live here, take an afternoon to see the fall colors, because fall in Tomahawk Wisconsin is The Best Time of the Year!
