Sunset Park Shelter

Originally owned by the Tenant Family, Sunset Park was donated to the City of Portage in 1931 by Zona Gale Breese and Eleanor Breese to be used solely for public park purposes. The stone wall and steps were landscaped by Betty Tenant through one of President Roosevelt's New Deal programs of the 30's. This park has 4.5-acres and is located at West Pleasant Street and Sunset Street. There is one picnic shelter which contains flush toilets, electricity, cooking grill, and 12 picnic tables. The park contains a playground which was installed in 2018 and a great lookout over the Wisconsin River.

Please bring your Shelter Rental receipt with you on the day of your rental. If other park users are refusing to leave the rented space, we ask that you please call the Police Dispatch number (608-742-2171) and request an officer to assist with the situation. The Portage Police Department is aware of our Shelter Rentals, and are happy to help resolve any issues. The Portage Park & Recreation Department is closed on the weekends, so any voicemails or emails sent will not be received until Monday morning.
