There's a small hotel in Lake Mills, WI (America's Best Value Inn) that still had availability last week... cheap too (< $100/night). Lake Mills is about 30 or 40 miles west of Milwaukee. http://www.americasbestvalueinns.com/bestv.cfm?idp=1300.

Also, Lake Mills has an awesome microbrewery in town calledTyranena http://www.tyranena.com/

As far away as you'll be finding reasonable rates, you'd be better off going back & forth. You're only, what, a 2 hour ride?
