Challenge

Lake Lawn Resort is a historic hotel like no other. Nestled along two miles of Wisconsin’s Delavan Lake shoreline, it is the ultimate year-round destination for leisure travel, weddings and events. This year, Lake Lawn Resort and it is sister vacation rental property, Delavan Lake Resort, completed a $10 million renovation. With travel revenge at its peak and the resort ready to accommodate the modern traveler, the brand needed to significantly increase awareness, enhance credibility and ultimately drive people to book with the resort.  

Solution

Ready for Lake Lawn to reign as the must-visit Midwest resort, the Interdependence team worked to develop a strong cadence of creative stories to promote travel trends, must-do events, company milestones, business and leadership news and more. We positioned the brand as a go-to source, able to speak on emerging trends across travel, hospitality and weddings. Leveraging our aggressive pitching cadence and proprietary Interviewed technology, Interdependence consistently found opportunities to interrupt the news cycle and insert the brand and its leadership in trending and relevant stories. Additionally, to bring the one-of-kind lakeside experience to life, the team hosted a grand re-opening summer 2024 press trip with media attendees from Thrillist, freelancer for The Washington Post and Reader’s Digest, and TravelAwaits, among others.​
