Welcome to The Village of Ferryville
..................
.................
If you drive up to Eagle Mountain, you'll immediately notice a refreshed landscape. Eagle Mountain, already known for its relaxing atmosphere, has become even more inviting thanks to the dedication of our Department of Public Works Director, Doug Shaw. Doug organized a community effort, bringing together residents to trim the beautiful Pines lining the roads. After cutting and stacking the limbs, Doug led a volunteer crew yesterday to clear the piles and tidy up the area. This much-needed project will make mowing Eagle Mountain easier and help restore the area to the standards residents expect. The Village extends special thanks to Jim and Kris Harbaugh for their work on trimming and limb disposal, and to Bob Weber, David Lee, Nanc Hinde, and Steve Werner for spending the day chipping limbs and removing debris. There's more to be done, but Doug has a plan, and we're looking forward to seeing continued improvements as spring unfolds. ~President Mike Novelli

Ferryville is a little village with a population of 191 in Southwestern Wisconsin. In 1912 the citizens received from the state a charter incorporating the community as a village. It is located on National Scenic State Highway 35 between Prairie du Chien and LaCrosse Wisconsin. We are located on the Mississippi river at mile marker 658.1 which is the river mileage distance measured from Cairo, IL. where the Ohio River joins the Mississippi. The village is at the foot of beautiful bluffs that rise some 600 feet above the mighty Mississippi. Ferryville is at rivers edge and is an excellent area for hunting, fishing and water sports. The village is proud of the slogan ‘A Sportsman’s Paradise’. Ferryville is also associated with the term ‘A Place for All Seasons’.
The entire area along with being a sportsman’s paradise is a motorcycle riders dream due to the hills, valleys, curves and just pretty scenery. Within the village is Sugar Creek Park, which has camping facilities, electric hookup, lavatories, and playground equipment. Also located within the village are boat launching facilities, which were rebuilt in the summer of 2003 and includes two Handicapped accessible ramps and docks.
We may be a small village, but we have plenty of friendly people and lots of beautiful scenery.
