Fond du Lac (pronounced “FAHN-d’lak”) is a French for “foot of the lake”, named as such because of its location at the south end of Lake Winnebago, Wisconsin’s largest inland lake. It is within an hour’s drive of the major cities of Madison, Milwaukee, and Green Bay and is less than a three-hour drive from Chicago. Fond du Lac County is a highly motivated area. You’ll find rolling hills, rich green lands, and dazzling lakeshore throughout the Greater Fond du Lac area. – Envision Greater Fond du Lac
