Experience Woodland Dunes
We acknowledge that Woodland Dunes resides on traditional Ho-Chunk, Menominee, Ojibwe, Ottawa, and Potawatomi homelands along the west shore of Michigami, North America’s largest system of freshwater lakes; where the Mishicot and Neshota Rivers meet and the people of Wisconsin’s sovereign Ojibwe, Ho-Chunk, Menominee, Oneida, and Mohican nations are present.
