The Property

A tour, in five chapters.

Renderings prepared by Architectural Design Consultants, Inc. Schematic Design Package, June 2023.

Arrival
Chapter 01
Arrival
01 / 10

Four stories of stone, timber, and dark siding rise above a landscaped approach. The building's footprint — 12,812 square feet — terraces gently into the Dells topography, with parking woven through native plantings and boulder outcrops.

The Approach
Chapter 02
The Approach
02 / 10

At dusk, a heavy-timber porte-cochère anchors the entry sequence. Stone columns and warm sconce light cue the guest into a calm, residential register before the lobby reveals itself.

The Welcome
Chapter 03
The Welcome
03 / 10

By day the porte-cochère reads as a Northwoods pavilion — gabled roof, exposed structure, and the Wyndham mark held with restraint. The arrival drive curves through landscape designed to feel discovered, not staged.

The Lobby
Chapter 04
The Lobby
04 / 10

A double-height great room anchors the ground floor — full-height glazing, a stone hearth, and reclaimed timber trusses overhead. The Wyndham reception desk reads as residential casework, lit from below in warm brass.

The Terrace
Chapter 05
The Terrace
05 / 10

An outdoor terrace extends the bar and restaurant program — pergola-covered dining under string lights, framed by lavender and prairie grasses. A natural extension of the lobby during three seasons.

The Firepit
Chapter 06
The Firepit
06 / 10

Past the dining terrace, a stone gas firepit holds a circle of lounge chairs above the valley. Candlelight, low conversation, and a sightline that runs uninterrupted to the tree line.

The Courtyard Pool
Chapter 07
The Courtyard Pool
07 / 10

A heated outdoor pool and spa sit in a sheltered courtyard between the guest wings. Cabana-style covered seating, lantern light, and the silhouette of the great room glowing behind the water at dusk.

The Indoor Pool
Chapter 08
The Indoor Pool
08 / 10

A year-round indoor pool and whirlpool sit beneath a wood-clad ceiling, opening to the courtyard through full-height glazing. Designed for the shoulder seasons that define a Dells operating calendar.

The Fitness Center
Chapter 09
The Fitness Center
09 / 10

A full-service fitness suite — cardio line, strength rack, free weights, and functional training — overlooking the wooded edge of the site. Specified to a standard guests increasingly expect from upscale brands.

The Stay
Chapter 10
The Stay
10 / 10

Forty-seven keys, each treated as a small residence. King suites pair custom millwork headboards with private balconies, layered textiles, and a writing desk — calibrated for the leisure traveler who works between adventures.
