Delafield – Close To It All, Far From Expected

DELAFIELD, Wis. — As spring rolls into Wisconsin, bringing with it longer, sun-filled days, it’s a great time to shake off winter and come to Delafield, Wisconsin, a welcoming city in an exquisite outdoor setting known as Lake Country. In Delafield, you can rest your head in the finest luxury or camp alongside its serene lakeshore. You can shop for the latest trends in boutiques and popular stores, or tour historic sites from the past. You can sit down for a leisurely meal over a glass of wine or a locally brewed beer, or slow down just long enough for a latte. Delafield is a rare gem because while it’s close to the bustle of world class museums, nationally-known summer festivals, and Major League Baseball, it has an allure all its own, making it a true getaway.

Say goodbye to winter and celebrate the arrival of Wisconsin’s glorious spring and summer by packing up your car and making a visit to Delafield, where you’ll find more than you expected.

Natural beauty - Soothing and energizing
Delafield’s natural beauty is its main attraction. Lake Nagawicka is the center of the city, but there are also thirty other nearby lakes, giving you unlimited ways to enjoy fishing, kayaking, sailing, swimming or just floating. There’s no less to do on land – Delafield is home to a challenging 18-hole golf course and lush bike and hiking trails that wind through the city and into Kettle Moraine State Park.

Shopping and dining for every taste
The streets of historic downtown Delafield resemble the Williamsburg Colonial era, but its eclectic blend of trendy boutiques and restaurants feature the very best offerings of today, including the only Preferred Boutique™ hotel in the Midwest. Take a drive down Milwaukee Street to a shopping district featuring dozens of well-known retailers and popular shopping, microbreweries, restaurants, and hotels – a shopper’s paradise.

Great location close to it all
Just 90 minutes from Chicago, Delafield is an easy drive to popular destinations in Milwaukee and Madison: Summerfest, Old World Wisconsin, Milwaukee Brewers baseball.
