loved having a stateroom. it made the ride much more enjoyable than last time when I just ride across the lake. Having time to relax and rest was awesome. Private restroom is also nice, room to wash up before disembarking is great. I highly recommend a stateroom!

Keep in mind the food is limited, due to Covid. With that said there were some sort of healthy choices. We got a stateroom and that was the best decision, you have a place to go and plenty of time for a nap.

The Badger is a great relaxing way to cross the lake! We took and RV with a trailer and all was well, they do a great job loading and unloading.
