We did not block out any rooms at any hotels as I think that's only done for HUGE events.
I did post the below yesterday and it lists all the local hotels.
IMPORTANT INFO plus Hotels and Airports near Lake Country Pad Manufacturing in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin

Hotels
Staybridge Suites Milwaukee West-Oconomowoc (closest)

Will make decision after I see the car in person.
