STEVENS POINT, Wis., March 29, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- A new, luxury boutique hotel in central Wisconsin, The Inn at SentryWorld, opened its doors today. The upscale hotel, built by Sentry Insurance, is located across the street from its Stevens Point headquarters on the SentryWorld campus.

Guests can expect an authentic Wisconsin-style hospitality experience during their stay.

Golf remains the pinnacle of the SentryWorld experience and golfers will have the option of staying at The Inn with special stay and play options. When the course opens June 1, 2022, SentryWorld will debut its new fully inclusive golf experience. The experience will include handcrafted food and beverage options (made-to-order if desired) at two on-course refreshment stations, all of which are included in the greens fees. GPS-enabled golf carts are also included with each round, as are all gratuities. Tee times have been spaced out from 10-minute intervals to 20-minute intervals to provide a more relaxed, enjoyable round and to ensure the course remains in pristine condition throughout each day.
