Wisconsin Dells

[cydswipe]

Any advice for Wisconsin Dells for a family of 4. DH, myself, DD6 and DD10. Not complete thrill riders, but enjoy swimming and smaller attractions. Where do you like to stay and why?

Thanks for your input!

You will get different responses, but we love the Wilderness Resort, because they have 3 different water parks and they are only for resort guests.

Best Waterpark is Noahs Ark. Black Hawk motel family owned and cheap, also i read they have new beds. My kids always want to eat at I-HOP and Cold Stone Creamery. We have also enjoyed Wizard Quest and Timber Falls.

If you're not going during the hot summer months (even during those times, it may not be hot), the Wilderness is your best bet for the entire family. It's very much geared towards kids and there are a few of the indoor waterparks and also a large indoor playground, laser tag, arcade, a few restaurants and I'm not sure what else. You can find coupon codes online and may be able to get a room as cheap as 99 dollars a night during the off season. (The room rate includes the waterpark passes). If it is hot out, Noah's Ark is a fun water park but the lines will be long and it's a bit pricey. I take the kids to one of the smaller waterparks, Waterview or Water world...something like that. There is a little amusement park attached and tickets are pretty inexpensive especially if you get a coupon from the internet. Also-when you're there, eat some pizza at Moosejaw. Yummo!

We liked the Great Wolf Lodge..the resort seemed to be a little higher quality than some of the other larger ones...and the waterparks were a little smaller which worked well with our kids.

My vote is the Wilderness too.

Many of my friends used to do the Kalahari-but rooms are very expensive, and most have switched to The Wilderness.

They have some good coupons. Here is a website, www.wisdells.com.
