07-19-2010

 

 

State recognized with numerous awards for bringing on the fun

 

MADISON, Wis. (July 19, 2010) — Where can you indulge in the “Best Breakfast in America,” experience the “Best Destination in the U.S. for Families” and take advantage of some of the best cycling in the country? Wisconsin, of course! More people across the nation are taking note of the state’s best attractions and vacation spots as Wisconsin continues to rake in outstanding recognitions from national magazines, television programs and online sources.

Wisconsin’s accolades stem from the passionate and innovative people behind every award-winning inn, tried-and-true destination and charming small town. Day in and day out, the state’s hospitality industry continues to provide a genuine experience for every traveler to venture here. The proof? The awards Wisconsin continues to earn year after year. Here are just a few:

Wisconsin Dells: Best Destination in the U.S. for Families

Not only was Wisconsin Dells named “Best Destination in the U.S. for Families” in 2010 but it was recognized as the No. 3 “Best Destination in the World for Families” by TripAdvisor. It shouldn’t come as any surprise considering that “The Waterpark Capital of the World” has been attracting families year after year with innovative waterpark thrills and excitement such as Scorpion’s Tail at Noah’s Ark Waterpark, America’s first nearly vertical looping waterslide.

White Gull Inn: America’s Best Breakfast

Visitors to Door County will want to take a morning to enjoy “America’s Best Breakfast” as chosen in 2010 by “Good Morning America” and voters across the country. White Gull Inn’s Door County cherry stuffed French toast earned the tasty top honor this year. It’s two slices of egg bread, pockets of Wisconsin cream cheese and Door County cherries, served with real maple syrup. The White Gull Inn is a charming and historic inn known for the traditional fish boil. Book early because weekends fill up fast!

Three Lakes: Single Best Town in America

The town of Three Lakes was chosen by Kraft Singles as “The Single Best Town in America” for 2010 due to its natural beauty amidst the world’s largest chain of inland lakes and its welcoming residents. Located in the 650,000-acre Chequamegon Nicolet National Forest and known for its crystal clear lakes, abundant fisheries, trophy deer and an array of wildlife species, Three Lakes offers four seasons of traditional Wisconsin Northwoods recreation. 

Stockholm: Small Midwest Town You’ll Love

This year, Midwest Living selected Stockholm as one of the “5 Small Midwest Towns You’ll Love.” A Swedish-founded town, Stockholm boasts outstanding scenic views, challenging biking on the Great River Road, galleries, shopping and Scandinavian food. Popular shopping stops include Abode Gallery, The Palate and the Stockholm Pie Company. Other Wisconsin small towns that received the nod from Midwest Living in the past have included Door County’s Ephraim and Fish Creek.

Egg Harbor: America’s Coolest Small Town

Budget Travel singled out Egg Harbor in Door County as one of “America’s Coolest Small Towns” in 2010 for the town’s high “cool” factor, based on quality of life, arts and restaurant scene and proximity to nature. Check out the Birch Creek Concert Series which features symphony, percussion and steel drum and jazz performances from the nation’s most talented music protégés and their teachers. Or take a guided sunset kayak tour with Door County Kayak Tours. Wondering who else in Wisconsin is cool? Mineral Point was noted as one of Budget Travel’s “Coolest Small Towns” last year.

Wisconsin: No. 2 Bicycle Friendly State

The League of American Bicyclists named Wisconsin the No. 2 “Bicycle Friendly State” in 2010 for its commitment to bicycling through the legislation, infrastructure, education and all-around bike-loving culture. Take the family to explore the grand-daddy of all rail-trails, the Elroy-Sparta State Trail. If you want to put your skills to the test, take on the rural hills of southwestern Wisconsin or attempt the“Top of the World Tour” in Trempealeau County where nearly 400 miles of paved, lightly traveled roads are ready for the nation’s best on-road cycling.
