Spider Lake Lodge, Hayward, Wisconsin

The lodge, built in the 1920s as a rustic fish camp, authentically mimics the style of century-old New York Adirondack camps with log construction; stonework; and a long, low roofline. Now run as a bed-and-breakfast, the lodge is beautifully furnished in North Woods style. Gorgeous views of Spider Lake and access to the docks remind you why the remote location is part of the charm. spiderlakelodge.com

La Crosse, Wisconsin: The Charmant Hotel

Housed in a former candy factory downtown, The Charmant is the sweetest stay in La Crosse.

Canoe Bay, Chetek, Wisconsin

What is most noticeable at Canoe Bay near Chetek, Wisconsin, is what's missing. Kids. Traffic. Cell phones ringing. Few sounds break the spell of this 280-acre retreat surrounded by North Woods. Couples come to hide away on honeymoons or rekindle relationships in 23 rooms and cottages around Lake Wahdoon. Fresh flowers, baked goods and steaming coffee discreetly delivered each morning add to the atmosphere at this getaway. canoebay.com

Milwaukee: The Brewhouse Inn and Suites

Beer-lovers and history buffs, this one's for you. The former brewhouse in the late-19th-century Pabst Brewery Company complex found new life as a hotel, with 90 guest rooms in "steampunk" decor surrounding six enormous copper brewing vats. Rooms are comfortable, you get free Wi-Fi, and the hearty Continental breakfast showcases kringle, a Danish pastry stuffed with fruit. Prost!   brewhousesuites.com
