January 26th was National Plan for Vacation Day and while it’s not even February, we know everyone is already thinking spring! So as you start planning your spring vacations, keep these Whitewater must-dos in mind!

Spring Vacation To-Do #1: B&B it up!

First and foremost, book a room at Victoria on Main, or Hamilton House. After a day of traveling, exploring, and eating, you’ll want a cozy place to rest.

Spring Vacation Must-Do #2: Hike your heart out!

Hit the trails for all the early spring growth and views of the various lakes before the overgrowth of summer! The Blackhawk Segment of the Ice Age Trail and the Rice Lake loop offer glimpses of new growth and beautiful views of Lake Lorraine and Rice Lake.

Spring Vacation Must-Do #3: Listen to live music!

Book tickets to a show at Young Auditorium! Whether in-person or via live stream, Young Auditorium has a number of great shows planned for two March weekends. Book the show for the weekend you’re coming! If you opt for the live stream, grab food to-go from one of our yummy restaurants and eat in your room with your live entertainment.

Spring Vacation Must-Do #4: Explore a country mall and sip!

Plan a visit to The Fuzzy Pig and have a drink at Whiney’s Wine & Craft Beer Haus! Vintage finds and a delicious cocktail? You just can’t go wrong.

Spring Vacation Must-Do #5: Catch a movie!

Catch a drive-in movie at Whitewater Cinemas! Nothing better than indulging in popcorn, candy, and a good movie from the comfort of your warm car on a chilly evening.

Spring Vacation Must-Do #6: Shop local!

Pop into The Book Teller and grab a few books to read when you’re cozy in your room or purchase some of the greatest local art and handmade products for yourself or a friend/loved one!

Spring Vacation Must-Do #7: Picnic and sip!

If it’s a warm, sunny day, spoil yourself with a Picnic Platter and wine at Staller Estate Winery and enjoy on their patio overlooking the vineyard.

Whatever you choose to do for your spring vacation, do it fully and with joy!
