ABOUT DOOR COUNTY
Door County, a three-hour drive north of Milwaukee, is an area of captivating scenic beauty. From its steep limestone bluffs to the spacious sand beaches, the 250-mile shoreline is both dramatic and serene. The rock formations are part of the Niagara escarpment that extends across the Great Lakes into Canada. Almost every kind of outdoor activity is available, as the area has four state parks and many local parks, beaches, hiking trails, and golf courses.
In addition to its natural beauty, Door County offers extensive cultural and musical attractions. The Peninsula Players Theatre is the nation' s oldest summer stock theatre. The American Folklore Theatre provides professional musical theatre. You'll find classical, big band and jazz featuring some of the nation's most distinguished musicians, playing at the Peninsula Music Festival and the Birch Creek Music Center. Door County has one of the largest populations of artists and crafts people in the Midwest, and a host of shops, galleries, and boutiques adds color to every stroll through each village.
Whatever your enjoyment, bird watching, golf, tennis, boating, biking, sailing, fishing, horseback riding, hiking, or just basking in the sun, you will feel at home in Door County.
