If you’re searching for a day-trip destination, we’ve got a couple of suggestions. Sitting 20 miles away, Eagle River is worth jumping in the car for. Among the first stops you make here should be Amsoil Eagle River Derby Track, Eagle River Golf Course and Eagle Falls Adventure Golf & Laser Tag. The locals will also likely point you toward Rhinelander, 20 miles away. If you can only see one thing here, make sure it’s Almon Park. (But we’re also big fans of Lake Thompson and Rhinelander Logging Museum.)
