Dent is situated in the heart of the lake country region providing great fishing in summer and winter. Our local merchants and resorts have a wide variety of products and services to meet all your vacation needs. Platted in 1903, Dent grew as a major wood shipping center. Heavy timber, interspersed with farms, covered most of the area. Much of the open land you see today was cleared as Dent was coming of age. Pay for grubbing (removing) stumps was 50 cents a day. In the early years, Dent was a thriving village with a lumber yard, creamery, feed mill, restaurants, railway station and a busy barrel factory.
