On the Road

There are a few highways that make the drive to the Northwoods, what do they say, easy-peasy lemon-squeezy? If you are hitting the road from Minneapolis/St. Paul, jump on I-94 East and before you know it, you will be exiting onto WI-53. Along the way, there’s plenty of gas stations and restaurants for pit stops.

If you are joining us here in the Northwoods from Eastern Wisconsin, you will get here by taking WI-29 or I-94 West. The drive is a quick one with views of Wisconsin’s rich farmland. We recommend a stop in Thorp at Marieke Gouda. Their award-winning gouda is, well, really gouda. No matter if you are traveling from the east or west, use the exit for WI-53 (running north and south) to travel to your Chippewa County destination.

In the Air Sun Country operates out of the Chippewa Valley Regional Airport with weekly flights to MSP and with other seasonal destinations. Located eight miles or less from hotel accommodations, this location makes your travels simple. In the area, there are Uber, Lyft, and Taxi services to finish the final leg of your travels. The Minneapolis/St. Paul (MSP) Airport operates an hour and a half away from Chippewa County. Rental cars are available upon your arrival at the airport. Another great option would be utilizing the shuttles through Sun Country and Groome Transportation. These services bring visitors from the Chippewa Valley to MSP and vice versa.

Located a quick hour and a half drive from the Twin Cities, and a three hour ride from Madison, it’s easy to get to Chippewa County for a visit! Explore
