Timber Ridge is proud to be a green-certified hotel. As a travel Green Wisconsin member Timber Ridge has earned 70 points, more than double the required 30 points for certification.

Travel Green Wisconsin is a voluntary program that reviews, certifies and recognizes tourism businesses and organizations that have made a commitment to reducing their environmental impact. Specifically, the program encourages participants to evaluate their operations, set goals and take specific actions towards environmental, social, and economic sustainability.

Travel Green recognized some of Timber Ridge's best practices such as:

• Fans in waterpark push heat from the ceiling downward, reducing consumption 11-18%
• Low flow showerheads, and toilets are installed
• Cooking oil goes through a micro filtration process, which reduces oil used by 50%

Above all, the Travel Green Wisconsin program is designed to protect the beauty and vitality of Wisconsin's landscape and natural resources. Wisconsin's natural resources, wildlife and cultural diversity are among its most important tourism assets. Efforts to preserve them for future generations serve the best interest of Wisconsin travelers, as well as its tourism industry and the state's overall economy.
