About Student Housing in Stevens Point
Stevens Point, Wisconsin is a small, walkable central-Wisconsin city wrapped around the Wisconsin River, and it lives and breathes its university. The University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point sits right in town, so students are a big part of daily life, clustered near campus and the historic downtown square. The vibe is friendly and outdoorsy rather than flashy. The 27-mile Green Circle Trail loops the whole area for biking and hiking, linking riverside parks like Pfiffner Pioneer and Bukolt, and the 280-acre Schmeeckle Reserve sits right on campus with forest, prairie, and wetland trails. Downtown's old Mathias Mitchell Public Square hosts a long-running farmers' market, and the river is never far.
