“State Park”

• Please note! Heritage Hill is an independently run non-profit corporation that leases land from the Wisconsin DNR and receives less than 5% of our funding from the state. We have our own admission rates and membership program. Admission is not covered by your WI State Park annual pass sticker. Likewise, we do not sell annual passes on site. Please visit the Wisconsin DNR website, here, for their annual pass information, including where to purchase their annual passes.
