We travelled with my elderly parents, who had honeymooned in the Dells 51 years ago. We were not there for the water parks or amusement parks. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this hotel. Like others have said, it is a beautiful, park-like atmosphere. Though on a busy street, making it convenient to everything, the rooms were very quiet. They are not 'decorated', nor stocked with the finest of supplies. You aren't paying for that either. We expected a clean room, with a comfortable bed, in a relaxing atmosphere. That is what we got. After a day of exploring, The Dell Creek was the perfect place to relax with a a few beers or a bottle of wine before dinner. After dinner, the pool stays open until 10 for a relaxing dip before heading to bed. Of all the hotels we drove by (and there are lots and lots of them!), the Dell Creek is the most well kept on the outside. It all depends what you are looking for. For us, it was really great.
