Village of Lake
Hallie
|
The
Village
of Lake Hallie began in Wisconsin's logging era. In
the 1870s,the community of Badger Mills formed adjacent
to the Chippewa River and Lake Hallie. Lake Hallie, an oxbow
of the Chippewa River, was named after the daughter of the
lumber mill president. The lake was used as a holding pond
for logs. When the logging boom ended, the lake became a
recreational center.

Today, Lake Hallie provides excellent
fishing throughout the year. Anglers and canoeists can enjoy
a leisurely float down the Chippewa River from Chippewa
Falls to the boat ramp across from Lake Hallie. An 18-hole
golf course lies on the shore of Lake Hallie and the banks
of the Chippewa River. Hallie Youth Days provides opportunities
for young softball and baseball players to display their
talents. In the future, a bike trail will provide a
connection to the Old Abe and Chippewa River Bike Trails. |
