Tomah has great proximity to manufacturing, distribution and military bases
A small Wisconsin town surrounded by distribution and manufacturing hubs, Tomah offers plenty of job opportunities with relatively affordable housing options. The community also has a strong military presence due to its proximity to Fort McCoy, an Army Reserve base, and Volk Field Air National Guard Base. As folks have moved here for employment, the community has come together. “It’s just a decent tight-knit community,” says Aaron Stockwell, a Tomah resident and real estate agent at VIP Realty with 20 years of experience. Tomah’s Main Street-style downtown is a major gathering spot year-round with plenty of shops and a summer concert series, and locals can enjoy the outdoors at Lake Tomah.

A variety of housing styles dating back to the 1890s
Craftsman homes and Cape Cods from the late 19th and early 20th centuries are clustered around the center of town, with midcentury ranch-style homes becoming more common as development moved outward. Some 21st-century New Traditional builds are on Lake Tomah’s northeast side. Some older properties have been converted into duplexes over the years. Most homes range from $100,000 to $550,000, depending on lot size and condition. Manufactured homes and fixer-uppers often sell for below $100,000.
Tomah's northeast aside is home to several unique 21st-century New Traditional builds.

Green spaces downtown and on Lake Tomah, along with athletic facilities
Gillett Park is the most centrally located green space, featuring a fountain, playground and gazebo just next to downtown. From June until August, the park hosts American Music in the Park, a free bimonthly concert series. Winnebago Park is on the banks of Lake Tomah and has lakeside walking trails, fishing piers and a baseball diamond. In addition to traditional parks, Tomah is home to the Tomah-Sparta Speedway and the Tomah Aquatic Center, which has several waterslides and is open in the summer. In the winter, locals can go skating or play ice hockey at the Tomah Ice Center, which is open from September to June. Snowshoeing and cross-country skiing are also popular hobbies during the snowy season, especially along the Tomah Recreation Trail, and Whitetail Ski Ridge is less than 15 miles away. A new sports complex is planned to open in summer 2025 and will include baseball and softball fields.

Locally owned downtown eateries and weekly farmers market
Tomah’s small Main Street-style downtown district is lined with bars, cafes and shops, including All Things Amish & More, a furniture store stocked with goods from neighboring Amish communities. The Tomah Farmers Market operates out of Gillett Park every Wednesday and Saturday from May through October. The Break Room Sports Bar & Grill is a casual staple, offering pub fare with pool tables, and Cancun Bay has been serving Mexican food in the community for over 15 years. There’s an Aldi and a Walmart on Tomah’s north side, though locals drive to towns like La Crosse for larger retailers.
