Property Tax Payments

Oneida County's Land Information Office was experiencing a delay in processing deeds which resulted in many property sales not being reflected on this year's tax bills.  If you purchased property after 8/1/22 you will need to get the tax bill from the seller.  Please refer to Oneida County's memo HERE.

Some residents will notice an additional $5.00 POWTS (Private On-site Wastewater Treatment System) fee added to their tax bill.  Oneida County added the $5.00 fee to help cover their cost of administering the POWTS permitting and inspections.  Oneida County's Resolution 39-2021 regarding this new yearly maintenance program fee can be found HERE.  If you are looking for more information or have questions, please call the Oneida County Planning & Zoning Office at 715-369-6130.

Tax bills were mailed out mid-December.  The deadline for paying either the entire bill or the first installment is January 31, 2023.  You can view/print your bill or your receipt from Oneida County's tax website HERE.  It is best to only enter your last name or address; do not enter information into every field.

You can mail your payment in (must be postmarked by January 31st; made payable to Town of Three Lakes) to: Town Treasurer; P.O. Box 565; Three Lakes, WI; 54562.  All payments made after January 31st must be sent to the Oneida County Treasurer; P.O. Box 400; Rhinelander, WI; 54501. 

You can pay in-person during the Treasurer's office hours through January 31st. As of February 1st, you must send your payment to the Oneida County Treasurer. 

You can drop your payment in the box in the vestibule (located near the Police door/phone).  DO NOT LEAVE CASH PAYMENTS IN THE VESTIBULE BOX.  If you want a receipt mailed to you, you must include a SASE with your payment. As of February 1st, you must send your payment to the Oneida County Treasurer. 

You can pay online through Point & Pay HERE.  You will be charged an additional 2.39% fee (of your total bill) when paying by credit/debit card. If paying by E-Check you will be charged an additional $1.50 fee if your payment is under $10,000.00; or an additional $10.00 if your payment is over $10,000.00.  You can log back into Point & Pay within 5-7 business days after paying your bill to verify payment was received.  The link will be deactivated after midnight on January 31st.

You can pay in-person at Laona State Bank (1784 Superior St.; Three Lakes) during their regular hours.  This option is not available after January 31st.
