On this episode of Discover Wisconsin we’re doing it all in Marquette County, Wisconsin. We first have a delicious breakfast and steaming cup of coffee at Charlotte’s Café before hitting the water in a boat of our choosing thanks to Rendezvous Paddle and Sports. Once off the water, a visit to TNT Health, Beauty and Fitness Spa leaves us once again feeling renewed, refreshed and ready to take on the day. A night or two at Pioneer Motor Inn, just down the road, is a relaxing finish to any day. Waking up on the “right” side of the bed we visit Prairie Nursery to plan how to create our own natural landscapes and personal sanctuaries in our yards when we get home. We’ll wrap up our whirlwind tour with a Marquette County gem, Maggie Mae herself. We’ll eat, listen and dance our way through a day with her music and her spunky personality. After seeing all this, you’ll be planning your Marquette County vacation before we even have time to roll the credits.
