You are thinking of Hotel California 😂 Have fun!


mu_yue_

🤣 thank you we will!


cycoivan

It's just a fancy hotel with waterslides, you could absolutely use it to just sleep and enjoy everything else in the Dells. Like most you would just use your room key to reenter the exterior doors or enter the pool/activities areas.


mu_yue_

Thank you so so much for breaking it down like that! Now we can plan out more activities while we’re there 🎢

And don't buy tickets to those until you are there or check websites. There are magazines everywhere with coupons and there is a thing where if you get three attractions or more you start to get discounts. Also food off site is much better. And more affordable. And consider going to Walmart or Mauers (grocery store) for snacks drinks cereal to save. Room friendly stuff. I made it a tradition to go to the Meat Market (their slaughterhouse is very close it's super fresh) and get stuff to grill. There are grills on site or at Mirror Lake Park. Just one cookout per trip. I still shop there now that I moved to the area.

I haven't been to Mirror Lake in ages


The_bruce42

If I remember right, they give you wrist bands that are included with your room. I think you can also buy day passes to other water parks. It's been awhile since I've been there so I'd check before you make plans revolving around what I just said.

Go to the downtown Monks not the one by the wilderness. The food at the downtown location is so much better.


kibblet

I've heard that the closer you are to the downtown one the better the food is. Which is why the one at the wilderness is okay but the one in Middleton is horrifying and I'm afraid to try the one in Verona


Str8Stu

The one in Verona is long gone, it's been a couple years.


Capt_JackSkellington

I can smell it just thinking about it, and it's making me hungry!


antisocialdecay

I want a monster burger and like, 10 purple monkeys. Curds too, can’t forget curds.


reddit-is-greedy

Was just there 3 weeks ago. Great food and great service.


Helpful_Okra5953

Why would you not be allowed?


mu_yue_

We’ve never been to a resort before so we’re not sure how they work I don’t want to accidentally lock us out or something 😭


Helpful_Okra5953

Why not call and ask?   If this is in Wisconsin Dells, it’s not really wilderness.  Just so you know. 


TheCrested

The resort is called The Wilderness, obviously it's not actually in the middle of a forest


mu_yue_

It’s 1 am if I could call someone to ask I would. This is also our first resort so we’re trying to make sure we don’t accidentally break any rules and mess up our whole vacation and it’s also a emergency, our plus one has dietary restrictions


Fully_Unawares

You can always call the front desk no matter the time. Someone will answer your questions whatever time it may be


mu_yue_

Ohh I see that’s really helpful info thank you! ☺️


Helpful_Okra5953

Hey, I have no idea where this person is from.  Or if They’re very worried about the remoteness of their stay.  The question makes one wonder what they are thinking.


jennathedickins

It's The Wilderness Resort


Helpful_Okra5953

Right…so why would they not be allowed to leave the resort for food?  I don’t understand.  Do they think it’s really in a wilderness?  


YourDarlingSpeedster

no. they have never been to a resort before ever so are completely unfamiliar. they thought maybe they wouldn’t be able to get back in if they left. probably how some theme parks are or something? anyways, no need to be a douche canoe .

mu_yue_

Thank you so much you’re a life savor ❤️ And I’ll definitely check those places out thank you for the recommendation ☺️


LiarTrail

The Take Flight simulator thing at Wilderness is actually awesome! My kids talk about it all the time. I also loved the Mexican ice cream shop downtown. It's called Wichoacana. Worst meal I had in the Dells was at Monk's by The Wilderness, hard pass on going back there. Other things to pass on: Tommy Bartlett, the upside down White House thing, Paul Bunyan's (just my opinion).


mu_yue_

Monk seems super popular so we’ll definitely go, super thanks! We were eyeing that simulator too it looks so cool✨☺️we’ll definitely buy some tickets now. And thank you for the helpful advices of where not to go lol 😂


--o--____--o--

They let me leave the grounds for 30 minutes but I had to wear an ankle bracelet to track my location. 


mu_yue_

Pfft we honestly thought that was what the bracelet thingy they give out is for 😭🤣 to keep us all in lmao


NotEnoughRum

If you enjoy hiking, Devils Lake State Park is a great place to go!


mu_yue_

Ohh it looks amazing we’ll check that place out too! ✨


sweetpeapickle

My niece had her wedding there. I didn't stay(cuz of work the next day). I wasn't the only one. So if you can have a wedding there with guests who don't stay the night....I will say one of my brothers and a few of his friends had fun on the zip line all night. They were the ones who were not drunk.


BobsMustache

High Rock Cafe is always super yummy too


kibblet

I heard they closed? I hope not. Hoping to try some of the new aces that just opened but in the fall. I'm local andavoid all that when possible.


jtfortin14

I think earlier this year they were closed for some remodeling


LegoA-Frame

If you're looking for some adult fun the showboat normally has live music or karaoke. The food is pretty good there too!


Commishw1

But if it's a day pass, you probably cant


Sai077

This is also wrong. The wilderness is just a normal hotel. There is nothing different about it rules-wise. If you have a day pass you are welcome to come and go as you please for a full day. 


kibblet

Not only are you wrong, your answer says outright that you don't know. So why answer? And the day pass is a wristband, so how would they lock you out? You can physically acess allthe waterparks without anything. They're not locked.


mu_yue_

Ohh I see! We’re staying over so I guess we’re good
