Facility Overview

Situated in the heart of Marathon County at 780 Maple Ridge Rd in Kronenwetter, Wisconsin, this dedicated commercial and oversized vehicle facility offers dependable open-air surface parking for drivers operating along the vital Interstate 39 corridor. Designed primarily for box trucks, bobtails, utility trailers, and large commercial haulers, this spacious surface lot eliminates the typical headaches associated with finding safe overnight staging. Because it is an open-sky ground lot, there are no overhead clearance bars or height restrictions, allowing high-roof sprinters, large utility vehicles, and heavy-duty pickups with trailers to maneuver easily across the level ground.

Prime Location & Nearby Attractions

Conveniently located at the junction of Kronenwetter and Mosinee, this parking depot provides swift access to regional logistics centers, dining, and scenic Northwoods stops:

• Central Wisconsin Airport (CWA): Located just 5 miles southwest (roughly a 7-minute drive), making it ideal for transport operators coordinating multi-modal logistics.
• Downtown Mosinee & River Park: Positioned 4 miles south along the Wisconsin River, offering riverside walking paths, local diners, and convenience stores.
• Wausau Commercial & Entertainment Core: Situated approximately 10 miles north via I-39, granting direct access to Granite Peak Ski Area, Rib Mountain State Park, and Wausau’s shopping districts.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity

The facility benefits from exceptional highway integration, situated moments away from Interstate 39 / US Highway 51 at Exit 181 (Maple Ridge Road). Ingress and egress are straightforward: drivers exiting I-39 turn onto Maple Ridge Road and proceed directly to the entrance without encountering low bridges, sharp city hairpins, or weight-restricted residential roads. The wide entry aprons ensure that turning radius constraints are kept to a minimum, even in icy or snowy Wisconsin winter conditions. Local taxi and rideshare services (Uber and Lyft) operate throughout the Wausau-Mosinee metropolitan zone for drivers leaving their equipment parked while off duty.
