Waukesha County Park System is an 8,500-acre, natural resources-based system. Some parks and lake access sites require a daily permit or annual membership for access. A portion of these fees helps us maintain parkland. Retzer Nature Center does not require an entrance fee.
A daily park entrance permit ($6/vehicle) or an annual park membership is required for all vehicles entering the following fee-based parks: Fox Brook, Fox River, Menomonee, Minooka, Mukwonago, Muskego, Naga-Waukee, Nashotah, and Ryan Park.
To purchase online, you will be asked to log in or sign up for an account. *Important: Have your license plate information ready. The Park System's Automatic License Plate Reader Systems requires user vehicle plate information upon purchase (all capital letters, no spaces, no hyphen).

• Two (2) daily permits - $12
• Three (3) daily permits - $18
