Round Barn Lodge is a unique and charming destination that has been a favorite for families across generations. Originally a restaurant, the lodge was converted in the 1970s and offers vintage vibes that transport guests to a cozy getaway just 50 minutes outside of Madison. The lodge features rustic touches that embrace its barn theme while maintaining a fun and kitschy atmosphere.
Guests appreciate the comfortable and clean rooms, though some may find them small, with mixed reviews on bed comfort. The lodge boasts a fantastic pool that many consider one of the best hotel pools they've experienced, along with a pool table for entertainment. The friendly staff adds to the welcoming ambiance, ensuring a pleasant stay.
Round Barn Lodge is also an ideal basecamp for nearby attractions, including the Wisconsin River Resort, making it a popular choice for wedding parties. The location is convenient, with a coffee shop on-site and dining options like Arthur's just across the street. Despite minor housekeeping issues and small bathrooms, the lodge remains a hidden gem worth visiting for a fun and memorable experience.
Somewhat dated, but very clean. Staff is very friendly. Pool area was very nice.

I stayed here once years ago and it's probably one of the best hotels I've stayed in. It was affordable, clean, the room was HUGE, the staff was helpful and friendly and come morning we had an amazing meal downstairs in the restaurant. The food was sooo good. Hopefully I'll be able to stay here again soon.
