Things To Do
Peninsula State Park
One of Nick and Calla’s favorite spots for camping, hiking, and biking! If you're short on time, we recommend climbing Eagle Tower for the best views of the Peninsula or taking a scenic drive through the park.
Peninsula State Park Golf Course
A must-visit for golf lovers! This scenic 18-hole course offers beautiful views of the bay and is a fun, relaxed way to spend an afternoon. It’s the perfect blend of natural beauty and laid-back Door County charm.
Twelve Eleven Wine Bar + Provisions
A special spot in Nick and Calla’s story. This cozy wine bar is where they played their favorite game of cribbage just before getting engaged! Thursday's welcome drinks will be hosted on this property at the Hoop House.
Al Johnson’s Swedish Restaurant & Butik
A true Door County staple and a spot everyone knows and loves! Famous for its Swedish pancakes and the goats that graze on its grass-covered roof, this charming restaurant is as memorable as it is delicious. A must-visit for first-timers and longtime fans alike!
Husby's/The Garage
If you know Nick and Calla, you know they always find their way to Husby's for live music and one too many cocktails. It’s a lively, fun spot in the heart of Sister Bay. It's perfect for dancing, singing along, and soaking up the local vibes. Be sure to ask Calla about the night they got engaged…
Wilson's Restaurant & Ice Cream Parlor
Nick’s favorite ice cream spot in Door County! A nostalgic staple, Wilson’s has been a go-to for his family when his grandparents had a place up in Gills Rock, Door County. With its classic soda fountain feel and huge scoops of delicious ice cream, it’s the perfect place to stop for a sweet treat and a taste of Door County tradition.
Not Licked Yet Frozen Custard
Calla’s favorite ice cream spot! Her family made it a tradition to stop here every year while camping at Peninsula State Park. It’s a nostalgic must-do. With creamy frozen custard, a fun outdoor setting, and a playful vibe, it’s the perfect place to treat yourself.
Hill Street Burger
Just go!
Newport State Park
If you’re looking for peace, quiet, and stars that’ll make you believe in magic, this is your spot! It’s one of the darkest places in the Midwest (in the best way) where you can see the best stars. Great spot to hike or sit on the beach!
One Barrel Brewing Company Door County
Our rainy day MVP. When the weather at Peninsula doesn’t cooperate on our camping trips, you’ll find Nick and Calla here playing cribbage and eating their amazing pizza. Cozy vibes, great beer, and the perfect backup plan that never feels like a backup.
Anderson Dock
Post-ice cream stroll? Yes, please. After grabbing a scoop at Wilson’s, wander down to Anderson Dock to check out the colorful graffiti of names, dates, and memories. This spot holds a special place in our hearts - it's where we’ve snapped a photo every year… and where Nick got down on one knee! Bring some paint or a marker and leave your own little piece of Door County magic behind.
