Just so you know, all your advice was not a waste above even thou we went to Charleston last August, because we now have a trip to the Dell's planed for the middle of April with a few friends. This should be great for the kids we have 4 family going and are rent 2 condos at The Wilderness.

So now a few other questions; Has anyone done the Duck Tours this time of year?
From their website they are run from mid March to Nov. Just wondering it if, it was worth it with the weather being cooler. Do you get wet at all? Do I need to bring extra blankets for the kids? Any other advice?

Check out the Myrtel Beach area while you're there. If you can get in at Sea Watch it's very kid friendly and right on the beach! I believer they have like 10 pools, 7 hot tubs and 2 lazy rivers and like I said, right on the ocean. These pools are not waterslides but the kids will still love them. One of their slogans is, "Kids are King"! GREAT place for adults too...we'll be there the first week of August.

Cheers!

Let me know what you think, I'm locked in to The Wilderness but would love to know what someone that has been to a few place thinks of each.

Thanks for the info. Like I said above I'm locked it in to The Wilderness b/c with our group we had to book sooner than later. We have 4 family going so that it 8 Adults and 8 kids. We got two condos and it only came to $230 for the weekend per family.

I'll keep that in mind for next time but I was actually in SC last August and I'm going to the Dell this April. But I did look at the Sea Watch website and they look like that have some good deals and a real nice place!


I'm still looking for info on the Ducks
Has anyone done the Duck Tours this time of year?

We've done the "Original Ducks" in late October and it was cool and breezy. Just like riding around with all the windows open in the car, Except colder. Depends on the temp. for the day but we wore thicker fall jackets and were fine. Usually just get a "mist" at water landings depending on where you sit.

Think of taking the family to Wisconsin Dells for a few days and suggestion on what to do or where to stay etc. Wife's has to have a hotel no camp grounds (She pregnant). Cabin could work, one of my friend might bring his family also.

chula vista is a nice resort that i dont believe was too expensive

Had a good time at the chula vista but if i had to do it again i would go back to the wilderness. The indoor waterpark is not big enuf for the the amount of people the can hold. Dont get me wrong it is a very nice place and right on the wisonsin river but next year we are going back to the wilderness. I am sure any place you go you will have a great time. i have only been to these places in winter so dont know how good the outdoor water park are.

Ditto on the waterpark not being big enough at Chula Vista. We stayed there a year ago and the waterpark was packed. Just isn't that fun when it's that full. Otherwise it was a really nice place.

Hey I never did finish this post out, I have had a lot going on lately. But we stayed at the Wilderness on the Lakes and loved it back in the middle of April.

We did not make the duck rides, the kids had to much fun at the water parks. I think our group is going to try to make this a yearly thing.
