Calumetville is located at the intersection of U.S. Route 151 and County Highway HHH. Route 151 was once an old military road running from Fond du Lac to Green Bay. Lake Winnebago lies less than one mile to the west. Pipe lies {{convert|1.6|mi|km}} to the south, and Brothertown is {{convert|2.3|mi|km}} to the north. Local attractionsCedar Lodge is a very popular restaurant which draws customers from the surrounding area. Calumetville hosts an annual vintage gas and steam engine show which is held at the RS Vintage Steel grounds.[3] The event features rock crushing, threshing, log-sawing, and blacksmithing. Photographs showing the local history of the area are also displayed. HistoryThe community first settled and platted by George White in 1838. White's home was one of the first three election sites in Fond du Lac County.[4] At its height, Calumetville rivaled Fond du Lac as a commercial center. There had been a butcher, a doctor or two, a reception hall, a post office, a couple harness shops, a couple blacksmiths, a hotel, a Turner Hall, and a school. In the 1950s and 1960s there had been two grocery & hardware stores, two gas stations, and two taverns. In 2009 during a road construction project on Highway 151 in Calumetville, human bones were found. The bones are of a young adult and are believed to be part of an ancient burial site. Construction was delayed to allow for additional excavation of the burial site.[5] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://geonames.usgs.gov|accessdate=2008-01-31|title=US Board on Geographic Names|publisher=United States Geological Survey|date=2007-10-25}} {{Calumet County, Wisconsin}}{{Fond du Lac County, Wisconsin}}2. ^Calumetville, Wisconsin, Wisconsin Historical Society 3. ^RS Vintage Steel Steam and Gas Engine Show, Retrieved October 10, 2007 4. ^[A.T.
