"The Northwoods is Our Backyard"

Price County is well known for its spectacular natural beauty, including vast areas of national, state and county forestland, and 18,000 acres of water. Located just about in the center of the county is the quiet town of Phillips, Wisconsin. Surrounded by the lush green of the Chequamegon National Forest, the Flambeau State Forest and flowages created by logging dams that were rebuilt in the 1930's under WPA, Phillips offers a serene setting with plenty of beauty, awesome recreational opportunities, friendly people and a wealth of history - much of it a result of the Eastern European farmers who bought land and raised proud families here after the logging industry of the late 1800's had moved on.  The pride is still obvious today in the buildings of the downtown area, most constructed of red brick and built between 1894 and 1900.

Phillips is a place where you can enjoy all of your favorite sports and outdoor activities all year ‘round amongst a number of beautiful Wisconsin Lakes, including the chain consisting of Duroy, Elk, Long, and Wilson. Take a stroll along the main street and take in the architecture that dates back to the late 19th century. But make sure you consider Phillips for your next vacation where "The Northwoods is Our Backyard" and we'd like to share it with you and yours!
