Thunderbird Motor Inn

This cheap, old school motel shows its age on the outside, but was real clean with updated furniture, carpet and room fixtures on the inside. The family running the motel and working the front desk are real friendly. The A/​C and shower/​sinks worked perfect. They had an unplugged fridge and microwave in my room which I did not use, but they looked clean and in working order. This is basically everything I look for in lodging, and for not too much more in cost than a Motel 6 type of establishment. I’m definitely staying here again the next time I visit Baraboo and the Dells.
They were sold out most of the nights I stayed, so definitely reserve a room in advance (they’re usually available for a good deal through Expedia).

Fantastic! Very pleasant staff! Clean rooms!
This was a very spur-​of-​the-​moment trip to Wisconsin Dells before the kids head back to school and we were trying to find a reasonable hotel within 10 miles of the Dells… we found it!
The room is very comfy/​cozy, our 11 and 8 year old kids love it, and it’s been a very nice break from the crazy, high hotel rates from so many of the on-​site Dells resort prices. We will definitely come here again.
The sweet lady that checked us in (possibly the owner?) was very friendly and made sure we had a map to find what we needed around town. It’s been a very welcoming experience. The room is clean and we are thrilled to have an additional microwave and refrigerator, too.
Lovely.

What a nice surprise from an unassuming non-​chain hotel. Pet-​friendly, great location right near town and Devil’s Lake State Park, impeccably clean and well-​maintained, quiet, comfy beds, good strong wifi, and all the basic amenities (coffee maker, fridge, microwave). The family who owns it does the maintenance and cleaning themselves and they were constantly fixing things while we were there. Even the blankets were painstakingly mended in spots. All this means the price can’t be beat, while the pride in ownership shows. Also enjoyed being near the Four Star Restaurant for diner-​y breakfast. We will definitely be back.

They were very apologetic and helpful when our Travelocity reservation was lost. Manager called us later to make sure we had found a place to stay.

This… for $ 50 (winter rate)? Really? Well appointed. Not as clean as I’d like (stained carpet near the door), but $ 50… Very nice family runs it.

We were skiing at Devil’s Head in Feb 2011 and found this very inexpensive motel close to Devil’s Head. We only needed to spend one night and did not need anything fancy. I was pleasantly surprised to find huge, very clean rooms and friendly staff. I would recommended this place to anyone skiing at DH. There is a diner walking distance from the motel, that offers great food with 10%off if you mention that you stayed at the motel.

VERY clean and reasonably priced. Stayed here for a ski weekend and had no problems at all. Will be back.
