The Camp Five Museum is a living history museum located in Laona, Wisconsin that interprets the forest industry and transportation history of Wisconsin. It includes part or all of the Camp Five Farm, also known as Camp Five Logging Camp, which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996.[1] The museum was established in 1969.
The museum site encompasses 4 acres (1.62 ha) and includes a logging and forestry museum, static displays of historic logging equipment and riverboats, a petting zoo, a nature center, a small cafeteria, and a museum shop.
Two tours run from the site into the surrounding countryside: a forestry tour and a riverboat tour. Each tour takes about twenty minutes.
Visitors reach the museum by taking the Lumberjack Steam Train, which runs on the Laona and Northern Railway.
