Built by Robert Wakely, it is one of the oldest frame structures in Central Wisconsin. The entire house has been restored to original condition.
Built in about 1842 and the only Wakely-built building that remains standing at Point Basse, the Wakely House was built in the Greek Revival style which was popular in the United States from 1820 to 1860. It is Chicago-balloon-frame construction and one of the oldest homes standing in Central Wisconsin.
Inside you may find a member of the Wakely family or a neighbor demonstrating a domestic skill or telling you about the family and their lifestyle.
