Schofield, WI

Tucked along the eastern shore of Lake Wausau, Schofield is a small, easygoing community just minutes south of downtown Wausau. The town grew around an 1850s sawmill founded by William Scholfield, and that historic connection to the water remains front and center today. Bordered by the Wisconsin River and the Eau Claire River, Schofield offers a quiet neighborhood atmosphere with immediate access to the jobs, dining, and conveniences of the larger metro area.

Daily life here naturally gravitates toward the outdoors. Residents can launch a boat or kayak right into the flowage, spend sunny afternoons relaxing at waterfront parks, or explore nearby fishing spots and walking trails. With quiet residential streets, friendly local businesses, and quick commutes across the region, Schofield gives you a peaceful lakeside setting with all the perks of nearby city amenities.
