What You'll Find on Discover Pierz
We have one goal here at Discover Pierz and that is to show you the best things to do in the Pierz Area, personally experience them and share them with others looking to do the same. Small town fun is often hidden among the locals, but we are here to show visitors, new community members, and long time Pierzites all the amazing things this area has to offer.
Golfing in Pierz
Golfing is a big deal for Pierz people, so much so that they decided to add an additional 18 holes projected to be finished by 2026. The Historic Pierz Golf Course offers a serene and picture perfect course to enjoy all summer long.
Camping in Pierz
Camping in Pierz is the cats meow. You’ll find Rv’s, Tents and even a Yurt or two set up along the Skunk River campsites. Both campgrounds are conveniently located close to Pierz for easy access to local activities and the Soo Line ATV Trail.
Playing in Pierz
Weekly events and activities are waiting for you, but don’t miss out on canoeing and tubing down the Skunk River, local lake fun at Pierz Fish Lake, ice cream cones from the drive inn locally roasted coffee, and local shopping.
Our Visitors Love This Place!
Pierz is a tight-knit community built on the value of helping the neighbor. You need a hand there is someone there for you. Visiting here has always been fun. There is activity every weekend and most week days. Many people stop in Pierz at Thielen Meats, but there’s more to discover beyond the beef sticks! Stick around and see.
