Palmquist Farm

Palmquist Farm has been welcoming hunters since 1949. Jim and Helen Palmquist run this 800-acre North Central Wisconsin property that's been in Jim's family since 1902. What started as a subsistence farm has become a destination hunting lodge known for serious game and serious hospitality.

The farm offers prime white-tail deer hunting during Wisconsin DNR bow and rifle seasons. You get:

• •800 private acres of forest and fields to hunt
• •10,000 surrounding public acres for expanded options
• •Semi-guided hunts or hunt on your own—your choice
• •Maps and directions to productive areas
• •Licensed guide service available by request
• •Help with transportation to hunting areas
• •Field dressing and deer removal assistance after the shot
• •Bring your own tree stand if you prefer

Grouse hunters know aspen is everything. Palmquist Farm's land is actively managed for aspen production by county, state, and private timber companies—meaning excellent grouse habitat.

• •Season runs mid-September through end of year
• •800 private acres + 10,000 public acres to work
• •Hunting dogs always welcome
• •Maps and directions provided
• •Licensed guides available

"I am just amazed at how many grouse we found in Price County, not only on The Farm but on other land we hunted. That's why I will be back." — Larry Csonka

• •Helen's Home-Cooked Meals: This isn't a lodge restaurant. This is Helen Palmquist cooking hearty farm food timed around your hunting schedule. Sharing hunting stories over dinner is part of the deal.

• •Handcrafted Cabins with Sauna: After a full day in the woods, you get a hot sauna and cozy cabin with wood-burning fireplaces. The farm has 5 cabins ranging from 2-6 person capacity, plus "The White Pine Inn" (a large log cabin for big groups), plus rooms in the farmhouse. Total capacity for 40-50 people.

• •Family-Friendly Setup: Non-hunting family members get hiking, wagon rides, lawn games, scavenger hunts, and access to local attractions. First-time young hunters get special attention—the low hunter density (they limit numbers strategically) makes it ideal for teaching the next generation.

Gun safety and hunter ethics are core values here. They limit the number of hunters on the property and arrange them strategically in the forest to prevent safety concerns. You're responsible for obtaining proper hunting licenses; they can point you in the right direction.
