My stay at the hotel was absolutely delightful! The rooms were beautifully appointed with a lot of Wisconsin nostalgia, which was a cute touch. The only downside was not having a coffee maker in the room; I had to go to the main building to get my coffee fix. The setup was nice, and I particularly loved the vinyl record player.
