The Eagle River Stadium, which seats roughly 2,000 people, was designed by German immigrant architect and engineer Max Hanisch, Sr. and constructed by local volunteers and community residents.[1] Constructed mainly of wood in 1933, it is the first indoor hockey arena built in the state of Wisconsin.[2] The roof framing is a wooden lamella design, using solid-sawn timbers interconnected in a unique honeycomb pattern.[3] The facility is affectionately referred to as "The Dome" because of its dome-like shape. It has received major renovations once, in 1963–1964, when new locker rooms, indoor plumbing, and a concession stand were added.
The arena is home to the local high school hockey team, the Northland Pines Eagles; the ERRA Youth Hockey Association; a senior league team, the Eagle River Falcons; and formerly a tier II junior ice hockey team, the Wisconsin Windigo which changed ownership following the 2024-25 season and was moved to Brookfield Wisconsin; and the Wisconsin Hockey Hall of Fame.
