Door County, Wisconsin


I visited Door County in April of 2007, I believe. It was 75 degrees fahrenheit! I stayed at a small golf course in Sturgeon Bay, off the beaten path. The rates were unbelievable, included a round of golf per night stay, and was quiet. It had a restaurant there too, which had a fabulous Sunday Brunch. The photo above is from a park that had dunes down the road. You can stand above on the rocks, and hear the water making loud, deep "glug" sounds as the waves went in and out of caves below the rocks.

Also, a place has a Friday night art making event, and you can make anything, including painting a t-shirt, wine glass, or tile, or many other things. Door County is the ultimate getaway, especially when it's not-quite "season time". I go either in the beginning of November or middle to late April. Not everything is open, but enough is to beat the tourists and still have fun and have many restaurants to choose from. Or, you can pick up some nice groceries and stay at a place that has a small kitchen and stay in. I did this at a resort-type place in Sturgeon Bay, in November.
