[QUOTE="SwollenRaccoon, post: 1415672, member: 19178"] Not a lot of lodging choices (or at least fun ones) on that short stretch of the river. Winona has the standard chain motels. There's an AmericInn in Wabasha, but it's expensive for what it is. Stop for lunch at the Golden Frog or the Wing Dam in Fountain City. At Alma, take county E about a mile or two to the top of the bluff and enjoy the view at Buena Vista Park. It's worth the diversion, with a beautiful view of the Mississippi and the dam there. I can list dozens of really fun roads in that area. If you're willing to get ten miles or so east of the river, there are cabins in Waumandee, next to the Waumandee House restaurant. I have stayed there, and they are nice. There's nothing to do in the town, but the food is decent at the Waumandee House, plus the grocery store in town has some of the best homemade meats and smoked meat to keep you happy. The little store has everything from baling wire, to paint, to cheese, and the best skin-on wieners around. And endless miles of paved county and township roads. Just watch out for deer. I hope your back gets better. It would be a bummer to cancel your trip. [/QUOTE]
