Migrating to the United States in 1654, the Van Wie Family were among some of the first settlers on the Hudson River in New York.
In 1847, Henry Van Wie came to the Wisconsin Dells area to work the fertile landscape around the Wisconsin River. One hundred years later in 1947 Jack Van Wie founded Dells Lumber & Construction with the motto of Price, Quality and Service that is still true today!
John and Joanne Van Wie, purchased the business from the family in 1978 and have been serving the Dells community since. "Joanne and I remain involved with the Wisconsin Dells community through various civic organizations and work hard for a higher standard of service. We would be very proud as a family to work with you on your next building or remodeling project."
- John C. Van Wie
