Tubing on the Wisconsin River
Sandy Shores Tubing LLC operates guided and shuttle-supported river tubing trips on the Wisconsin River, offering a scenic three-mile float with custom river tubes and return shuttle service. The tubing experience on the Wisconsin River provides easy access to sandy beaches, calm stretches of water, and riverbank picnic spots. Tubing trips are suitable for families, groups, and event organizers looking for a relaxed, social outdoor activity in central Wisconsin.
Ice Fishing on Petenwell and Castle Rock Lakes
The company offers seasonal ice-fishing rental skid houses on Petenwell Lake and Castle Rock Lake, including two-person and six-person skid house configurations. Each skid house is equipped with bench seating, heaters, sonar shelves, and multiple fishing holes so anglers can fish in comfort. Petenwell Lake rentals launch from The Bighorn boat launch; Castle Rock Lake options provide flexible access for anglers who prefer that lake. Ice-fishing rentals are available during lake ice season and are intended for anglers seeking a comfortable, well-equipped shelter on the ice.

Inflatables Swim Pond and Water Park
