Ric and Dawn Duques purchased and redeveloped the Madison Beach Hotel re-launching the new resort in May, 2012. With generations of family citizenship and pride in Madison, their goal was to express that passion with a resort that celebrated the shoreline splendor of the town in both architectural beauty and the spirit of Madison hospitality greeting every guest.
Even more important than sharing the natural beauty of Madison's West Wharf with visitors was to offer shoreline families a place to explore and create memories.
