Living in the great northwoods of Wisconsin gives that special quality of life that supports the secret to health and happiness – small town living. One minute you can be shopping downtown Merrill and minutes later you can be outside the city limits enjoying a panorama of forest, streams and hilltops. For those looking to escape the fast pace of the big city, yet still want some of the amenities, Merrill is the place to be. It's a place where family, friends and living are at their best!
