7. Lots of fun
Depending on your interests, there are several things to do. The Dells has interesting geological features. It also has waterparks and other attractions. It is full of tourists. I like it though.

10. Yes, I have.
Be sure to go to North Freedom, near Baraboo, and ride the trains at the Mid-Continent Railway Museum. All diesel now, but they are in the process of repairing 4 Steam Locomotives for future excursions. Lots of vintage rail stuff. Cars, depot, water tower, etc.

And Circus World Museum in Baraboo.

Ho Chunk Casino is nearby also.

Some good antique malls also.
