Dekorra, WI

Set right along the scenic bends of the Wisconsin River and Lake Wisconsin, Dekorra is a quiet Columbia County community located just south of Portage. The area is known for its rolling bluffs, wooded shorelines, and easygoing country feel. Long ago, it served as an important river landing and trading spot along the historic Fox-Wisconsin waterway, and that deep connection to the water still defines the landscape today.

For anyone considering a move to the area, Dekorra combines lakefront living with convenient access to everyday necessities. Boating, kayaking, and fishing on Lake Wisconsin are everyday pastimes, with plenty of boat launches and parks dotting the shoreline. Depending on where you settle in the township, students typically attend schools in nearby Poynette or Lodi. With Interstate 39 close at hand, residents can easily commute into Madison while coming home to peace, quiet, and beautiful water views.
