Resort Meeting and Conference Event Venues – Not your same old Wisconsin corporate retreat.

It used to be the term “corporate retreat” brought to mind nightmarish thoughts of miniscule cabins, outhouses, dinner-plate sized spiders, and the threat of itchy, swollen rashes from fungi encountered while hiking through the woods. Thank goodness things have changed. In fact, if you book your next corporate retreat at any one of these venues, your guests will experience a dream-come-true event and quite likely, tweet their friends and families that they’re never leaving. At least, not for a while.

Go jump in the lake

Wisconsin is most surely the land of luxurious lakeside resorts. Comfortable rooms, an indulgent spa, 54 holes of legendary golf, water sport rentals, bike rentals, paddlesport trips, ice skating, cross country skiing and more than 28,000 square feet of meeting space can be found on the gorgeous acreage of Geneva Ridge Resort. Located just minutes from downtown Lake Geneva, the resort offers your guests outstanding accommodations and activities year round.

Looking for sweet breezes, waves lapping on the shore and spectacular views? Check out Grand Geneva Resort & Spa in Lake Geneva.  Then check in to enjoy this classic, AAA, four-diamond, four-season resort that offers spacious rooms, fabulous food from its three main restaurants, and a state-of-the-art convention center, grand ballroom, conference center and more. Here your corporate retreat can incorporate golf, tennis, swimming, ice skating, skiing and even horseback riding. 

For a grand old time, nothing beats The Abbey Resort in Fontana. With breathtaking surroundings and outstanding service, your corporate retreat will be a huge success. Especially when your attendees choose to take advantage of the onsite spa with massage, aromatherapy, facials or saunas. Or relax on a boat rented from the nearby marina. Or surrender to the temptations of steak, seafood or even burgers and fries from one the resort’s five on-site restaurants.

For more than a century, Lake Lawn Resort in Delavan has been delighting its guests with their hospitality, accommodations and one of the most scenic corporate event spaces in Wisconsin. A seemingly endless list of possible activities include swimming, biking, volleyball, basketball, tennis, and miniature golf. With choices that include everything from a boat rentals to bonfires, activities here will inspire your team and nurture a sense of camaraderie.

For a really superior experience, why not book your retreat at Stone Harbor Resort, Hotel + Conference Center in Door County? Named “Best Lakeshore Resort” and with meeting space for up to 350, lakeside lodging, on-site restaurant and full-service catering, could it get any grander? As a matter of fact, it could. With beautiful accommodations, on-site entertainment, and local attractions such as kayak tours, Door County Trolley, galleries, shopping and more.

Though it’s not technically on a lake, Potawatomi Casino Hotel in Milwaukee is still a premier place to jump right in and enjoy. Featuring meeting space that accommodates more than 3400 people, top-of-the line technology options, first-class catering, six restaurants onsite, 381 hotel rooms opening the summer of 2014 - and oh, yes…gambling too - you’ll find that business is a pleasure here. 

The Wisconsin corporate retreat has come a long way in the past twenty or thirty years. But fortunately, when planning your next one, you won’t have to go very far to find something extraordinary.
