Things To Do

There are so many places to explore in Door County! Here are a few recommendations that we like doing when we come up for a visit. We hope you can stay longer to enjoy this area that we've fallen in love with.

Shopping

Between Egg Harbor, Fish Creek and Sister Bay there are tons of little shops and boutiques to buy mementos and clothes. Some of our favorites are Sister Golden, Lake People/Beach People and Skal

Outdoor Activities

There are so many outdoor activities that Door County has to offer. Peninsula State Park is great for hiking, swimming, beaches, and panoramic views. There are scenic drives, golf courses, wineries and lighthouses - our favorite is the Cana Island lighthouse on it's own little island in Lake Michigan. So many places to explore!

Art Galleries

Door County is known to be an artistic community. There are many art galleries in town and along every road in the county. There is also Peninsula Players Theatre, an outdoor stage on the bay.

It's Wisconsin...so where's the bar?

We always start our Door County trip in Egg Harbor at One Barrel Brewing, indoor/outdoor atmosphere with fire pits, craft beer and vintage Nintendo. In Fish Creek there is Hill Street for outdoor atmosphere and Bayside Tavern for indoor Wisconsin atmosphere. Sister Bay has Dave's favorite - Stabbur Beer Garden for all the Scandinavian vibes.

In Sister Bay or Fish Creek One Barrel Brewing in Egg Harbor – so close to the venue and did we mention the beer? Supper Clubs: The English Inn, in Fish Creek - Decor alone is worth the visit!
