Village of Poynette Parks

The Village of Poynette's parks provide space for informal recreational activities for residents.  They accommodate space for play areas, facilities for organized sports, open space, and picnic areas.  Parks, trails, and open spaces are key contributors to the Village of Poynette’s high quality of life.

The Poynette Park System currently includes 9 parks that encompass a total of 119 acres.  Each park and green space is unique and provides a variety of activities for Village Residents.

Located on the County Highway CS approximately one mile west of downtown, this 45 acre park has a picnic shelter, dog park, 9-hole disc golf course, and trail access to Rowan Creek.

Located in the heart of the Village immediately south of the downtown business district, this 13.3 acre park encompasses heavily used baseball and softball diamonds, a large picnic pavilion, smaller picnic shelters, playground equipment, and a paved perimeter walking path. Pauquette Park is also the primary trailhead for the Rowan Creek Trail.

This 3.7 acre park is across the street from Pauquette Park, with which it shares a parking lot. It currently provides open play area, picnic shelters, and community gardens. It is also the location of the Poynette Veterans’ Memorial.

This 9.2 acre park is located on the near westside of the community. Valley View Park currently encompasses 5.3 acres of Village owned property and approximately 4 acres of land leased from Columbia County.

Valley View Park is home to soccer fields, walking path, and our splash pad.

This wooded 2.6 acre park is located at 100 Old Settlers’ Trail, on the Village’s south side.  Wallis (or Wallace) Rowan established a cabin in what is now Old Settlers’ Park that was used as a home, trading post, and inn for travelers along the Old Military Road. This is recognized as an archeological site (CO-0246) by Wisconsin Historical Society, and a Wisconsin Historical Marker was dedicated in the park in September 2012.



Outdoor pickleball courts, basketball court, sledding hill, and ice rink are located in this park.

Located in the northern part of the Village, this unimproved parcel (except for a sign) encompasses approximately 0.8 acres. 

This space is ideal for open play.

This park is about ¾ acre and is located on a neighborhood walkway between Columbia Drive and Eagle Lane, near the northeast corner of the Village. It has playground equipment and a small shelter with picnic tables.

The Village's long-term expectation for the Property is that the majority of it will remain public open space and recreation land in perpetuity.  The future of this green space is in the planning process.

This is the Village of Poynette's newest green space and follows all park rules.  Residents are welcome to hike and explore.
