camp wandawega
elkhorn, wisconsin
a real life daydream
we really wanted to get married in a place that felt true to us, and that happened when we found wandawega. it tapped into our love of camping, appreciation of midwestern summers and love of the 60’s. we hope you will find it to be special too.
directions
wandawega is exactly a five hour drive from alex + olivia’s house in south minneapolis. if a road trip isn’t your thing (or you’re from out of town), you’re in luck! you can easily fly to milwaukee (45 min drive) or chicago (1.5 hr drive) + grab a rental.
where to stay
hotels + guesthouses
we have a few bed + breakfasts, as well as air b n b’s reserved (please contact susan mcneely - susanmcneely@mac.com)
There are also many air b n b’s/vrbo’s around the area - we suggest booking them sooner rather than later as there is an event in the area and limited rooms available :)
what to do
only boring people are bored
camp wandawega has so much to offer, from archery to badminton, swimming and fishing in the lake, to exploring kettle moraine state park (ten minutes away), a craft cabin, or walks in the woods - please peruse their “grounds + activities” page on their website.
