Kalahari Resorts & Conventions has launched the Kalahari Adventure Collection, a new property tier defined by “distinctive, experience-driven accommodations that invite guests to explore, connect and discover in unexpected ways.” The first destination under this banner is now underway in Wisconsin Dells, with a mix of elevated treehouses, lakefront cabins and villas, opening in 2026.
Located within the woods neighboring Kalahari’s flagship resort, the design and build of the treehouses is being led by Nelson Treehouse from the television show “Treehouse Masters.”
Construction is now actively underway in Wisconsin Dells. Work on the Treehouse Resort began earlier this month, and by the end of this week, rough framing may start to take shape. Additionally, Daylene’s Supper Club—a 10,000-sq.-ft. restaurant—is set to break ground on May 19, marking the start of major site transformation.
“The Kalahari Adventure Collection is a natural extension of the Kalahari brand,” said Todd Nelson, CEO/founder, Kalahari Resorts & Conventions. “While we’ll always be known for our indoor waterparks and convention experiences, we’re continuing to evolve—creating destination stays that are as unique as the memories they inspire. This new tier gives us room to dream bigger.”
The Wisconsin Dells location will feature three types of accommodations:
- Treehouses: Elevated, design-forward units built by Nelson Treehouse
- Lake Cabins: Ground-level homes with natural surroundings and direct lake access
- Villas: Scenic accommodations along the waterfront
While the treehouses, cabins and villas in Wisconsin Dells are the first to carry the Adventure Collection name, Kalahari views this as the beginning of a larger evolution. Plans are underway to explore how this new brand tier could be adapted and expanded to future developments at other Kalahari locations nationwide.
“We’re always looking for ways to push the boundaries of what’s possible,” added Nelson. “The Adventure Collection opens the door to a new kind of resort experience—one that’s driven by place, purpose and the idea that travel should spark something special. We can’t wait to see where it takes us next.”
