There are several campgrounds in the area. The Allenton State Wildlife Area is nearby. The area was home to tamarack forests and was used by Pottawatomie Indians for trapping. Most of the forest was cut during a period of settlement by whites, and a corduroy road was built across the marsh. It is now paved as Wisconsin State Highway 28. Solomon Juneau settled the area in 1852 and named the village after his mother, Theresa. He ran a trading post, constructed a grain mill, and operated a dam to provide water power for a saw mill. The area continued to be developed for agriculture in the decades that followed. After the agricultural businesses failed because of flooding, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources completed its land acquisitions, begun in 1948, in 1964.
