The Abe Martin Lodge at Brown County State Park has two very busy seasons. The most obvious one is June to November, stretching through the summer months and the iconic autumn months where thousands of tourists come to see the fall colors.
The other is spring break, which begins in mid-March, and goes through April.
“ That’ s when the park starts to wake up,” said Lori McGee, sales director for the lodge. Wildflowers are in bloom, the horse barns and nature center are open, and it is a great time for a mini-vacation, she said.
But the lodge is busy year-round, with some dates being booked up to two years in advance.
