Living in Spider Lake

The Town of Spider Lake isn't just a wonderful place to visit, it's also a wonderful place to live. This quiet, conservative municipality offers a genuine rural Northwoods feel without the forgoing of modern civilization amenities. Together, the residents of Spider Lake have developed a community that we are proud to call home. All Spider Lake residents are encouraged to participate in the planning of the future of our community.
