Wisconsin has more than a handful of small towns and villages you can't pass up. The tiny town of Osceola, Wisconsin is one of those irresistible places you just have to stop in whenever you're near or passing through. It might just be the best small town in Wisconsin.
Welcome to the lovely Osceola!
This tiny town of just over 2,000 residents was settled in the 1840s.
Main Street still has a smattering of nicely preserved buildings that date back to the 1880s.
The charm of this small town can be seen in every direction.
The historic buildings on Cascade Street are what draws them in, but it's the attractions, the people and the location that keep folks around for the day.
We can start with the town's famous park with an entrance right on Casacde Street.
Head down a few stairs and then through the park, and then be prepared for the longest staircase of your life.

Visitors drive hours and hours to visit this waterfall, called Cascade Falls, in Osceola.
