Don't let a rainy day get you down! You may have to leave the lake, but Three Lakes has everything you need for a memorable, family-friendly adventure, even in the rain. From stories and sweets to art and imagination, here’s how to enjoy a full day of fun in Three Lakes with your little ones.
Start your morning at one of the local coffee shops like Deja Brew or Mugs & Co. to fuel up for the day. While mom and dad can get their caffeine fix with some coffee or Lotus, kids can enjoy a filling breakfast sandwich or muffin with a kid friendly drink option.
Next stop? The local bookstore Mind Chimes Bookshop. Step through the magical wardrobe into the children's area, where kids can pick out a new read or browse picture books, graphic novels, and fun activity titles.

From there, head to the Demmer Memorial Library. This community gem is a must-visit, especially for families. With a great children’s section, storytime events, and hands-on activities, it’s a place where imaginations run wild and quiet moments feel magical.
After your literary adventures, explore next door, at the Three Lakes Historical Museum. Even young kids will find something to love here, from vintage toys to fascinating tales about the early settlers of the Northwoods. It's the perfect mix of education and curiosity.
Grab dinner at one of our many cozy restaurants, a sweet treat and then to wind down your day, catch a family-friendly movie at the local movie theater. The Three Lakes Center for the Arts provides a nostalgic step back in time, with a full concession stand. Grab the kids some popcorn (there's even beer and wine for the grown ups!) and rest your tired feet after a fun-filled day!
