History
In 1885, its first settler, Alonzo Wheeler settled in the area of the current village. By the 1890s more people started to follow Wheeler's steps and also settled in the area. Wheeler's Point had its economic and importance peak by the 1920s when the entire lake of the woods county's tourist industry boom led to the creation of various resorts in the area. The Kilmek family, seeing an opportunity, opened the very first resort in Wheeler's point. ==References==
