Wisconsin Weekday Getaways Game Changer with Kids
Once upon a time, spontaneous weekday getaways meant tossing a bag in the trunk, tuning into your favorite radio station, and the excitement that lay ahead. Then came the kids with a loving shift from spontaneous to strategically planned weekday getaways, with snacks, sing-alongs, and a new kind of magic in the rearview mirror.
The shift from spontaneity to strategy: With kids, every hour becomes a symphony of commitments. Spontaneity doesn’t vanish; it transforms into lovingly strategically planned detours from routine, like weekday getaways where joy is mapped with intention, yet still leaves room for laughter, wonder, and the kind of surprises that become family lore.
Joyful Weekday Getaway Options
A weekday getaway with kids is an opportunity to pause the routine, lean into the moment, and create lasting memories filled with joy, discoveries, and the kind of love that lingers long after the getaway ends.
A weekday getaway with fellow parents—no kids in tow—is part therapy, part comedy show, and sometimes 100% essential. It’s a chance to recharge, reconnect, and remember who you are beyond being just parents.
Adeline’s House of Cool offers special “Escape the Everyday” rates for those game-changing weekday getaways with the kids, or just the parents.
Weekday Getaways Adventures
Weekday getaways become unforgettable at Adeline’s House of Cool, where adventure starts indoors, spills out into the spacious grounds, and nearby attractions and towns.

Step outside and discover the magic of the grounds: A seasonal umbrella garden bursting with color and charm. A life-size Laurel and Hardy statue that delights kids and nostalgic grown-ups alike, along with a restored telephone booth perfect for quirky photo ops. A large fire pit for evening stories and s’mores under the stars. A private pier offering peaceful views and direct access to Lake Puckaway.
