Lake Geneva, WI: Only about two hours from our dealership, Lake Geneva, WI has been a popular getaway since the 1850s.

You can also find a number of wineries in the surrounding area.

Starved Rock State Park: Outdoors enthusiasts will want to head about two hours to the southwest to Starved Rock State Park. This is the perfect road trip destination for anybody interested in hiking through canyons, experiencing waterfalls, or learning about geologically important sites. Located in a typically flat region of Illinois, Starved Rock is a geological anomaly. After your hike, get a hearty dinner in the nearby town of Lasalle.

New Glarus, WI: Known as Little Switzerland, the small town of New Glarus, WI is located about three hours from our dealership. When you walk into this charming town, it feels like you are walking into a quaint European city, as the architecture resembles Swiss buildings and chalets.
