HotelTonight – Wisconsin Hotel Rooms in a Few Clicks

Wisconsin is America's Dairyland. It says so on the license plates of their vehicles, and the state has long been a leading producer of dairy products and just about everything that can be made from milk or cream. It's also a place that everyone should visit at some point in their lives, as there is a lot of beauty there and the people of Wisconsin are about as friendly as any you will ever meet anywhere. In most cities large and small, if you ask someone a question, you'll get a sincere and interested answer. If you walk down the street, you'll hear people say, "Hello," and mean it. So what's keeping you from visiting this wonderful place? You don't think you'd be able to find a Wisconsin hotel room, especially on short notice? You clearly haven't heard of HotelTonight.

If you're looking for more reasons to do so, consider the 10 things below about the state that many people who live there are not even aware of.

Wisconsin Is the Cranberry State

Wisconsin may be known as America's Dairyland, but it could easily be called The Cranberry State. That's because it leads the United States in exports of cranberries. There are enormous cranberry farms in the middle of Wisconsin for the most part, and they are something to see. Wisconsin also leads the country in exports of ginseng, whey and even corn.

Wisconsin's "Thumb" Is Unique

If you see a map of Wisconsin, it looks like a hand with a thumb sticking out and to the right. That "thumb" is Door County, a destination for travelers from all over the world. There are five state parks there and 250 miles of shoreline with Lake Michigan. That's more shoreline than any other county in the United States.

Wisconsin Is Home to the Biggest Water Park

If it's family fun you're looking for as you search for a Wisconsin hotel room, look no further than Noah's Ark, a water park in Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin, is an enormous site for wet and splashy fun. In fact, it's the biggest water-themed park in the United States. Guests can spend days there with family and never do the same thing twice.

Wisconsin Badgers – The Real Reason

Most people, aside from understanding that Wisconsin is known as America's Dairyland, also know Wisconsin as the Badger State. The mascot at the University of Wisconsin is the Badger, but that's not why the nickname came about. It came about because miners who settled in Wisconsin burrowed into hills, which is what the animal does.

Wisconsin Was Early on Ending Prohibition

There's another reason that Wisconsin is well-known around the world, and that's because of beer. Milwaukee in particular is known as one of the brewing capitals of the world. Wisconsinites love their beer, and that love is present regardless of circumstances, even Prohibition. In fact, Wisconsin repealed that law – as much as a state could – four years before Prohibition ended across the United States.

Wisconsin Started Kindergarten

No, Wisconsin is not starting school. The first kindergarten class in the United States was held here in 1856. Kindergarten is obviously a word of German origin, and there is a heavy German population in the state. Kindergarten in German loosely translates to "children garden" and Watertown is home to the first class.

Wisconsin Is the Home of Trolls

No, we're not talking about online trolls or even movie characters, but instead we're referring to the trolls in Mt. Horeb, which are a central part of the local culture. Scandinavians settled in Wisconsin in high numbers, and trolls are part of that folklore. Trolls made their way to Mt. Horeb and now you'll see them on display if you take the "Trollway" through town.

Wisconsin Is the Land of Fests and Celebrations

Taking from its European roots, Wisconsinites love to make the most of the warm weather. When the sun is out and the snow is gone, you'll find more fests and festivals around the state than just about anywhere else. Summerfest in Milwaukee is an enormous event, Bratfest in Madison is believed to be the largest in the world and other festivals all over the state offer their own unique contribution to the celebratory summer.

Wisconsin Is the Home of the Sundae

Given its place in the dairy world, it should not come as a surprise that Wisconsin claims several first in this regard. One of them is that Wisconsin was the place in which the first-ever ice cream sundae was served. It allegedly happened at a soda fountain in the city of Two Rivers in 1881, on a Sunday. The treat reportedly cost one nickel, and the rest is history.

Wisconsin Is Home To the Supper Club

Have you ever been to a supper club? Do you know that these clubs are not really clubs but open to everyone? Wisconsin is home to more supper clubs than anywhere else in the United States. It's a unique dining experience that begins with the pre-meal cocktail and doesn't end until some form of dessert is consumed. You'll find them throughout the state and almost nowhere else in the world.
