Springhill Suites - Wisconsin Dells
Currently the only Marriott property in the Wisconsin Dells area. Opened late 2015/early 2016. Category 4. Since it's a new SHS should be a decent one. Website says larger room can accomodate 5.

Doubt it'll be a Ren, not really the demographic that goes to the Dells.

Its a family and leisure location so I'd expect FFI/RI/SHS there.
That I'd like to see.
I just get my cheese at Brennan's grocery store in Madison though.

I associate the Dells with relatively cheap family vacations for the kids, although some of the hotels aren't so cheap in high season. Many families drive to get there from the Twin Cities and the Chicago areas, so they save money on air fare and rental cars. (It wouldn't be very practical to get here and stay here without a car.) I don't think of these folks as having high socioeconomic status, although I don't recall seeing data to prove it.

One awesome feature at Kalahari, aside from the slides and giant water toys, is that the farthest section of the top floor is designated a quiet zone. There is lots of signage, and guests are asked if they want to be there when checking in. The quiet zone is largely respected, and it is tightly enforced.

The second hotel site is the defunct Pine Aire Motel, adjacent the new SpringHill Suites (which was built on the site of the old Evergreen Motel).
These sites are along the highway, with other motels and roadside attractions nearby. It's a "blast from the past," with mom-and-pop motels, restaurants, and attractions. Neither the location nor the size of the Pine Aire site would lead itself to brand like Renaissance.
Wisconsin Dells is well located for driving vacations from Chicago, Minneapolis-St. Paul, and Milwaukee. Wisconsin Dells bills itself as "The Waterpark Capital of the World!," with indoor and outdoor water parks as the main draw. It's a place to get away from the city and spend family time.
With limited demand for weekday rooms from families when school is in session, Wisconsin Dells has a secondary role as a conference destination.
It's striking how few of the hotels at Wisconsin Dells are affiliated with major brands. As noted in this thread, Springhill Suites is the first Marriott presence (unless you include the various Marriott-branded properties in Madison, around 40 miles away).
I could see an upscale Marriott-affiliated water park resort property somewhere in the Wisconsin Dells region at some point.
