Halfway house
Hi,
I am wondering about a good hotel for a stay halfway between Milwaukee and the house of the Mouse. Any good suggestions? There will be 4 of us. DW, DS-9, and DD-6. We have never done the drive before. I understand it will be 2 days of travel both ways. I hope it won't be that bad.  Thanks Tor2ga

Re: Halfway house
If you drive for about 10-12 hours the first day, stop somewhere around Chattanooga. But, if you do this, you won't arrive in WDW until something like 6-7 PM assuming a 9 AM start.
For the return trip, you could stop again in Chattanooga, but your second day will be a little longer or you could drive on and stop between Murfreesboro and Nashville.

Re: Halfway house
If you have questions about Chattanooga, and or any where between there and Atlanta, please feel free to pm me. I drive this ALL the time. From Chattanooga, you are looking at about 10 hours (assuming stopping to eat once), but from Atlanta, you are looking at about 8 hours. (both are plus or minus 30 minutes). We live about 30 minutes north of Atlanta, and it takes us about 7 1/2 hours. It is a very easy drive once you get through Atlanta (I can give tips on this too)... Let me know if you have questions...

Chattanooga is exactly what I was going to suggest, only because that's where we stayed when we drove from Racine to St. Augustine a long time ago and it worked out perfect for us.

Thank you all again. It will be a little while until our next trip, but those places sound great.

Re: Halfway house
We love Chattanooga! I also thought this would be a totally different subject, hence the name halfway house...
www.tripadvisor.com is a great website to search any city, hotel, restaurant

Re: Halfway house
LOL Halfway House.
I love Nashville! It's so fun, with such great nightlife and delicious food. You could have a blast staying overnight there, if you are planning on entertaining yourselves a bit thile there.
