Parks, Recreation, and Forestry
We have great places to picnic in our park areas. There are many picnic tables available in the parks. There are also open shelters to be used rent free on a first come, first served basis at Iverson Park and Mead Park. Several of our parks have lodges available for rent.

The All-Purpose Lodge in Iverson Park is available March - November. During the Winter, the lodge is available for
private party rentals as part of the entire Iverson Winter Sports Area (whether permitting).

Other lodges are open from May 1 until the second Sunday in October, but reservations can be made any time.

News! Lodge rental rates will increase in 2008. New rates will be posted here after December 1, 2007.

Bukolt Park, on the Wisconsin River, is one of many great picnic spots in Stevens Point

A volleyball and net or horseshoes and stakes may be rented for $1 plus a $25 deposit. Reservations must be made at least one day in advance. Call 346-1531.
