About Bowler
Tucked into the rolling farmland and forests of Shawano County, Bowler is a peaceful village built on a long tradition of neighborly community. The area first came together in the 1870s when homesteading families arrived to build farms and a local schoolhouse. That close-knit foundation still defines the area today, making it an easy place to settle into if you appreciate a slower, rural pace of life.

The village expanded in the early 1900s around timber and the railroad, giving shape to the quiet downtown and community landmarks you see today. Daily life in Bowler revolves around the local school, friendly community events, and easy access to outdoor recreation, including hunting, fishing, and nearby forest trails. It offers a grounded, welcoming setting for anyone looking to enjoy classic small-town Wisconsin living.
