Great hotel with a great price.
It’s a great hotel with a great location for Wisconsin Dells. Also it’s a great value during the offseason. Just don’t love the 4pm check-in and 10:30am checkout.

Restaurant Food was Marginal
I really enjoy the hotel even though it's older. We rented the three-queen bed suite which was nice that it had a separate bedroom for my sister and brother in law who are having health issues. With four people in the suite, it would've been nice to have another bathroom and sink; however, we got by. We normally really enjoy the on-site restaurant because the ambiance is great and the staff are super; however, the first night, we got under-cooked fish and baked potatoes that couldn't even melt the butter. The next morning, we had breakfast, and the avocado toast was so-so, and my brother in law's milk was sour (the staff brought him a new glass).
