What guests think

Travelers describe Cedarberry Inn as a well-kept, independent, older hotel noted for exceptional cleanliness, warm indoor pool and hot tub, and welcoming staff, delivering good value and a quiet stay for visits around Sauk City and Prairie du Sac.

Rooms are frequently described as spacious and comfortable with some updated bathrooms and strong showers, but several note the lack of in-room refrigerators or microwaves, occasional musty smells, dated decor, or uncomfortable sofa beds and limited TV/Wi-Fi. Breakfast is often praised—especially the breakfast pizza and biscuits and gravy—though a few call it basic or mediocre; the property also sells drinks and can cook pizzas for guests. The location works well for the riverfront and Devils Lake, with easy parking and access to area spots. A solid pick for a simple, stress-free overnight in this area.

The room and public areas (including the pool area) were super clean. The hot tub and pool was really nice. Parking was easy and the person who checked was in was very helpful with suggestions for dining.

Hotel is as described by the website, Expedia and other previous visitors. The room was very clean, as was the hotel. The complimentary breakfast was tasty and sufficient. The pool area was very nice, we took advantage of the hot tub. We didnt stay in very long, the chlorine was strong and my eyes were stinging. We travel several times a year and that hasnt been something I've experienced before. Maybe they had just added the chlorine or whatever. Either way, the short time we did spend in there was nice. The staff was friendly throughout our 2 night stay. We would return if in the area.

I have stayed here a few times before and I will stay again. Very clean and quiet with friendly staff. Home-y atmosphere. My kids loved the pool. Only downfall was the games in the arcade area ate all my money, so can’t really consider that a perk.

We have stayed at much more expensive motels/hotels but we are always amazed about all the positives about this one. The desk clerks are always friendly and helpful, the parking ideal, very nice pool, adequate free breakfast, and now they have added drinks you can buy! Always a pleasant visit!

The Motel is older, but everything was very clean, and staff were super friendly. The pool and hot tub were both in working order and looked very clean. The breakfast on Sunday was very good. They had biscuits and gravy, hard boiled eggs, waffles, french toast (premade, you put in toaster to heat), sweet rolls, breakfast pizza, yogurt, cereal, milk, coffee, juice. I would stay there again. Our room had a queen bed, recliner, sofa sleeper, mini fridge, and the shower water pressure was great!

This motel is a very clean property. My husband and grandson stayed here during a fishing trip. My husband was so impressed with the front desk staff and actually went and found the housekeeper to tip her $20 for such a clean room. He said that this motel is one of the cleanest he has ever stayed at (and normally we stay at Holiday Inn or similar.

Entire place from the parking lot to the room's sink was SPOTLESS. Cleanest hotel I have every stayed at. Check in was FAST. The rooms are bigger than I anticipated, the breakfast was hot and sufficent. Coffee was good. The staff was friendly. We walked by the pool and hot tub, also looked immaculate.

Overall, the room was clean and comfortable but had a musty smell. I guess that is because it is by the pool. We stayed in the accessible room which was great since so just had surgery and it takes wuitr a while for the door to close. I wish you had the option of shutting that off if not needed. That is getting picky as i would rent this room again.

Polite staff, clean room though a tad bit musty. Very comfortable beds with “actual” normal pillows (not the stupid square ones). Old fashioned keys (not key cards) which is just fine. Huge pool in the center of hotel and we didn’t hear people in it at all. Earlier check in and later check out than others. For a simple stay it’s great.

We had the suite that sleeps 6. The king bed was fine. The Murphy pull down queen was hard as a rock and squeaky with all movement. The pull out sofa queen was so squishy you rolled into the middle. None of us slept well. The pool was nice for the kids and breakfast was good.

No Fridge & Microwave in rooms. Owner highly insensitive and inhuman. Although we had booked the room with an infant still we had to pay extra for basic needs like fridge & microwave. Also they charge extra 3% on using credit card. Other than ruining our festive mood the breakfast, parking and room was comfortable. Staff is also friendly. Overall an okay experience. Thanks

This motel did not disappoint! Clean, I mean spotless everywhere. Bed was perfect, temperature control was great on a 90 degree plus weekend. Quiet despite being right near the pool. Staff was pleasant and helpful. Nice continental breakfast with some hot options. If you want to be in the Dells area but not in the thick of things or pay the high hotel rates book at Cedarberry Inn!

Along with French toast, bagels, pastries, cereals, yogurts etc. The pool area was nice and big and well maintained. The hotel provides drinks and they will even cook amazing Emil’s frozen pizza for you to bring to your room. They have bottles of wine too: our room was spotless clean like no other hotel I have ever been too. We were there pleasantly surprised at how INCREDIBLE this hotel was. We will definitely stay here again. I wish I could give it 10 stars!!
