Dam on Mill Pond – Rosholt, Wiscsonsin
Rosholt is in the northeast corner of Portage County along the Flume Creek. In 1867, Jens Rasmussen, who came from Lolland, Denmark, purchased land and improved a beaver dam here to furnish power for a grist mill. In 1885 the dam was acquired by John Gilbert Rosholt for a sawmill. A community grew around the sawmill. In 1893 a post office called “Rosholt” was established and in 1907 the village was incorporated.

Video of Collins Park, Portage County – Rosholt, Wisconsin
Collins Park is a 21 acre space on the 42 acre Collins Lake three miles outside of Rosholt, Wisconsin. Early Polish settlers had passed the land to the county after a depression-era tax default. The deep cool lake in the heart of glacial moraine farm country has remained relatively free of development. This park of towering white pines, has a boat ramp, playground, beach and picnic lodge. The 27 campsites all have electrical hookups.
