Oconomowoc, Waukesha County about 50 minutes from Elkhorn

Oconomowoc calls itself the City of Lakes, and the name fits. Lac La Belle and Fowler Lake sit right in town, with Oconomowoc Lake and Okauchee Lake close by. Few places in Southeast Wisconsin put this many named lakes in one area.

That density of lakes, many of them ringed with historic lake estates, is what defines shoreline work here. A project in Oconomowoc might be on a town lake or a private estate lake, and the historic estate shorelines set a high bar for how a wall or dock has to look and last.

Oconomowoc

A Lake for Every Shoreline

Lac La Belle and Fowler Lake are the in-town waters, with a mix of residential and recreational frontage. Oconomowoc Lake and Okauchee Lake add larger estate shorelines to the mix. Because the lakes differ in depth, traffic and character, we plan around the lake the property is actually on, not a one-size approach for the City of Lakes.

Historic estate shorelines on these lakes mean a seawall often has to hold a manicured lawn and fit the look of the property, and a dock has to match the character of the shoreline.
