Our Story

Power House Lawn & Leisure first began as Nelson’s Power House. We opened our doors in the summer of 2009 when founders Dave and Robert Nelson, father and son, realized that Merrill, WI was in need of a small engine supply and service center. When our doors first opened, we focused on taking care of everyone’s outdoor power equipment needs.

We opened our doors in the summer of 2009 when founders Dave and Robert Nelson, father and son, realized that Merrill, WI was in need of a small engine supply and service center. When our doors first opened, we focused on taking care of everyone’s outdoor power equipment needs.

We not only serviced, but sold popular brands like Husqvarna, Ariens, Gravely, Stihl, Toro, and many more. Since then, we’ve expanded our operation. Branching out into leisure goods, and we now offer grills and accessories, Arctic Spas hot tubs, and other specialty items. With our newfound growth we required a new location, so in August 2020 we moved to 2500 E Main St, Merrill, WI, where we have more space, so we can better serve the community.

Our new location features more ample parking, a larger showroom, and a full-service kitchen which is host to cooking events and competitions. We plan to continue growing as an active part of the community, and we look forward to helping you with all of your lawn and leisure needs. If there is anything you require, give us a call at 715-722-0232, or stop by our showroom.

We look forward to helping you with all your lawn and leisure needs.
