If you have to bash the Great State of Wisconsin, don't go there. And I am from Illinois!

There is the 5* American Club in Kohler, WI that is 55 miles east of Oshkosh. I am not sure that your budget will be enough.

Wisconsin isn't promoted as a location of grandeur.

Rather for its lakes, fishing, hiking and great outdoors.


Go for the tent.

Did I read the comments correctly? The OP is a teenager, worried about slumming it in a Days Inn? Come back when you actually pay your own way in the world.

Spending a little time in nine states on the East Coast does not make one an expert of this country. I've "slummed it" a little this past month, and it really depends on the hotel. I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express that was fairly new and had nice, modern rooms. I don't know anything about this air show, but seriously, how many nights are you actually staying? Being forced to spend a night or two in a clean, decently priced room is probably not going to ruin your trip. If it does, you need to check your priorities.

Madison for a chunk, then up to Central Waters Brewery/Oso Tap House, and wildlife watching/searching in the central sands (Black River State Forest area), then over to La Crosse for some fun, and of course Spring Green. Checked out a few places in Milwaukee this time too. Short trip.

I am willing to lower my standards slightly, but not to a dump or somewhere isolated. Our budget is $2,000 for a week. Any ideas?
Why not consider a B&B?

Hi, we're waiting to December to book the flights and then we will book a Residence Inn hotel that we have managed to get a deal with. (They have block booked it)
