Flight

Central Wisconsin Airport (CWA)

It is a very nice but tiny airport. It is in a remote location, so you cannot rely on Uber, Lyft, or a city being nearby. It is the closest airport to our venue in terms of driving and is about an hour drive to the hotels. If you fly here, you will have a connecting flight from Minneapolis or Chicago. There is a hotel right across the street from here if you do need to stay the night before making your way down! Central Wisconsin is a hidden gem! It is near Stevens Point where Krista & Jarrad live. We encourage you to take time to explore, especially if you fly in early!

It is about an hour and 5 minute drive to Wautoma and about an hour and 20 minute drive to Coloma. It is in Appleton, WI in the fox valley. It is near Green Bay - home of the Packers and also next to Door County. Door County is a gorgeous destination in the fall! There are plenty of fun things to do nearby!
