It’s no accident that The Edgewater is Madison, Wisconsin's only Four Diamond hotel. Come along and discover why The Edgewater is a bellwether and trendsetter for America’s hospitality industry. 

The intrinsic philosophy of the Edgewater’s owners is to serve as a first-class full service hotel while simultaneously embracing the local community with activities from ice skating in the winter to free live music concerts and Friday fish dinners on the lakefront plaza.

Correspondent Tom Wilmer visits with The Edgewater’s COO Amy Supple.
