Wisconsin Dells

huwehotaling · July 2011

H and I are going to the Dells for a long weekend for our 2nd anniversary. Has anyone been there recently? I haven't been since a family vacation when I was about 12. We're already planning to go to one of the waterparks and probably do one of the boat tours. Does anyone else have recommendations for adult things to do? Or something fun on one of the lakes nearby? Thanks!

I haven't been there in a while either, but there is more than enough to do. I would definitely recommend Noah's Ark for the water park: http://www.noahsarkwaterpark.com/

There are also some really fun go-carts and roller coasters here: http://www.mtolympuspark.com/

No trip to the dells is complete without a Duck tour! http://www.wisconsindellstours.net/?event=offer.detail&offerId=3177&gclid=CKX5q7OQ_KkCFcrDKgodFmiXZQ

Wow, looking that stuff up really made me want to go back. Its so much fun! I hope you enjoy your anniversary

I was there last summer for a bachelorette party so we mainly went to the bars. But I remember from when I was little they had some awesome mini golf courses. There are also a lot of shops along the main strip to check out.

Are there any fun bars or good restaurants you'd recommend? We'll probably go out one of the nights we're there.

We stayed at the Kahalari so we ate all of our meals there. But we did have a good time at Nig's Bar. It was pretty low key but people were very friendly. I would stay away from Marley's, it was more of a night club with a lot of people in their early 20's there.

Don't do the Ducks. DH, DS and I did it last time we were there and it was SO BORING! Downtown is fun to walk and people watch. We have always been with DS, so no bars to recommend

Noah's Ark used to be THE waterpark to check out in the Dells. But that was like 15 years ago, so I'm not sure if it's still anything worth mentioning. The last few times we've gone down to the Dells, we've stayed at Chula Vista:

It's been awesome. We went with a bunch of friends/couples and got the huge Presidential Suite thing. They're really nice rooms, and the water park was nice too. I think it was that park that had little tiki bars along the lazy river

The Airboat tours are fun. I personally enjoy the Ducks too, but it's not as fast paced and fun as some people would like. So I say Ducks if you want a slower paced tour, airboats if you want a little excitement.
