Market Square Cheese

Reviewed By Lynn S - Savage, Minnesota, United States

I love cheese. This market has cheese galore. ALL types - from raw milk cheese, goat cheese, cheddars, Swiss, you name it. And, they give samples of the cheese. Along with the cheese the market offers dried meats, jams, jellies, lefsa, candy (lots of candy), chocolate and many many souvenirs. Yes, I bought 3 different types of cheeses and a meat stick.

The staff are super friendly.

This is a must stop place!

This is one of those strange choices you have to make occasionally. Can I forgive the fact that the entire group of people in our section got cold coffee with their meal or do I rate this venue as excellent? The show we saw was first rate and the food was a step above most dinner theaters but no restaurant could exist with the coffee we were served. The waiter tried to explain it away because of a problem in the kitchen and given that my wife's tea water also arrived in a luke-warm state, he may be correct, but it still tainted a fine afternoon. The venue is otherwise first rate in that sight lines to the stage are great for everyone. Tables are a little snug but not too tight for an average sized individual. There are steps up or down to most of the tables.

Wilderness Territory

Reviewed By Dr_Xaos - Palatine, Illinois

One of the best, if not the best, waterparks to stay at in Wisconsin Dells. Every location in the area has it's pros and cons, but Wilderness has something that will suite almost everybody's vacationing needs.

Multiple indoor and outdoor waterpark location spread throughout the resort, so lots of options of different things to do. Plus, having the various separate locations, there's a bit more spreading out of the crowds. Downside is that you'll potentially have a bit of a hike to get to the different places to which you're heading. Glacier Canyon to Wild West waterpark will provide some good exercise.

Many other activities beyond the waterparks. Big 3+ story playground for those not wanting to get wet at the moment, which doesn't cost anything more during the stay. Multiple arcades to play games and win prizes. Also have miniature golf, laser tag, and some other fun options. Keep in mind that most of these do cost extra money to play. Resort does have some good deals to get discounts or unlimited access, so recommend looking into that if you're planning to spend a lot of time play mini-golf or laser tag.

Number of different shops and restaurants located on site as well. Might pay a bit more for the convenience of immediate access, but prices are reasonable. Restaurants are pretty good well; experiences were good for both quality of food and service.

Mirror Lake State Park

Reviewed By bso54 - DeKalb, Illinois

I don't think you would enjoy Mirror Lake. It's too quiet, under-stated beauty, no dramatic views, a lake that doesn't allow boats that make a wake, no gift shop or restaurant, no loud boy scout troops, only takes an hour or so to canoe the whole lake, there is ONE neat rock formation compared to Devil's Lake, the hiking is too easy compared to Devil's Lake. So if you are debating which lake to visit, choose Devil's Lake. Please. (heeheehee)
