Dexterville is an unincorporated community in the town of Dexter, Wood County, Wisconsin, United States.

[4] In 1850, the sawmilling magnate George Hiles moved to the area and set up a lumbermill in Dexterville.

Dexter township may be named after Dexter, Michigan, the native home of a first settler, although folk etymology maintains the township is named after the mule of a local pioneer.

[6] He created the Milwaukee, Dexterville, and Northern Railroad in 1887 to carry timber from the area.

[9] A county worker died performing maintenance on the dam in 2009.
