Spring Green, WI
Just 3 1/2 hours northwest of Chicago is the picturesque Spring Green, Wisconsin. Known for its hilly landscape, this town is also home to Frank Lloyd Wright’s Taliesin. The home which is open to the public offers daily tours for all to see how this architect extraordinaire lived his life. Just up the road is American Players Theatre, the renowned outdoor Shakespearean Theatre. With plays offered throughout the week, this production company is certainly hailed as the pulse of Spring Green. A trip to Spring Green would not be complete without a stop by the popular tourist attraction, The House on the Rock. This humongous attraction is more than meets the eye with over a dozen themed rooms. This excursion is so massive that you will definitely have to come back a second day. What’s even more lovely about The House on the Rock is that a few miles away they have a resort with a 27 hole golf course and spa. Lastly, a trip to this town would not be complete without checking in with the locals. First up is the General Store, where you can get everything from women’s clothing to a light lunch to gag gifts like gnarly teeth. And if you are in search of great artwork, you’ll find more than you need at the Wisconsin Artist’s Showcase. There’s no better way to end a vacation than by eating some great food and that is what you’re guaranteed to find at The Bank. Once the State Bank of Spring Green, this restaurant offers locals and tourists a taste in fine dining thanks to their international cuisine. And just when you thought things couldn’t get any crazier, the restaurant offers seating inside the bank’s old vault – now how cool is that?
