This property was renovated last year and it was a vast improvement from my previous stay. The staff including Roxy, Cody and Tim were the best and I’ll definitely stay there on my next trip to Madison.

The room was great and the staff were all very pleasant. Everyone I spoke to was great - from the front desk staff to the staff in the dining area at breakfast.
Clean room, shuttle service and access to the Alisnt Energy Center's camping and RV show

Rooms were clean, check-in, easy, nice accommodations, easy access to the garden show. The only recommendation I would have is to have more protein on the breakfast menu.

This is a very nice facility. Opened in August of 2025, it was only six months old at the time of my stay so it is, and still looked, new and spotless. Would definitely stay here again.
