44 Midwest Resorts We Love

Choose between family-friendly lodging — featuring four indoor, guests-only water parks and wilderness-theme hotel rooms—or a quiet getaway with fully furnished cabins, condominiums and villas at this sprawling resort. Wilderness Resort is so big you'll need a map to find your way around. Families will enjoy the water features — including a Wild West indoor water park, an outdoor wave pool and the Hurricane extreme-tubing slide — as well as zip lining and mini golf. Adults can be pampered at the exquisite Sundara Spa nearby. Best of all, there's something here for every budget, whether you're looking for a basic hotel room or a spacious five-bedroom cabin.
