History

Шаблон:More citations needed Camp Lake was named after a lake noted on the first township surveys. When the Wisconsin Central/Soo railroad came through the area, there was a depot stop created as Camp Lake. Prior to that, James McVey had a hotel called the Camp Lake Hotel and Gardens. The earliest visitors to Camp Lake were children and their mothers from Chicago. The Camp still operates and continues to offer community services. Camp Lake has had a post office since the 1910 era.

Center Lake and Camp Lake were noted on the earliest maps as two separate lakes with an isthmus. Navigators cannot traverse the isthmus. The high level of this isthmus made this the choice area for the Wisconsin Central/Soo Railroad to cross between the lakes and escape the low-lying areas to the south of Camp Lake.

In the 1920s, Camp Lake Oaks subdivision was the location of one of the nation's early radio stations, WCLO, for "Camp Lake Oaks". Camp Lake Oaks was a subdivision built on property owned at one time by the Knickerbocker Ice Company on the northeast corner of Camp Lake south of the Soo rail line. Charles Whitmore used the radio station to advertise his "new" subdivision and offer the community music and news on the air waves. The building where the station was located is now a private residence. The station is still on the air in Janesville, Wisconsin.

Many of the early (1840–50) buildings in this hamlet still exist, although they are not being used for their original purposes. Hotels are now apartments, grocery stores are now restaurants, and residences are now businesses.
