Things You Must See And Do In Door County (The Only County Park And Only Restaurant Of Their Kinds)

We visited Wisconsin (Door County and The Dells) in October 2022 to hike, eat and sight-see. Join us in this episode as we enjoy some great stops in two state parks, a county park that is unlike any other in the country, a restaurant that has a unique feature you're not going to believe, and much more. As always, stick around for our usual JUST FOR FUN bloopers and silliness at the end. Let's go!
We welcome your positive, encouraging comments and appreciate you liking and sharing our videos, which helps us grow our channel. Thank you in advance for your support in what we are doing!

    We just got back from a 6 day vacation there. We came from 4 states away on a whim from learning about it in an article and watching videos like these. We got mixed reactions when people heard where we were from so we didn't go out of our way to tell people! Luckily I was born and raised in the midwest so I cranked up my accent a bit lol. Anyway, we fell in love with the place. There were times my wife and I looked at each other and literally said "how is this a real place??" It was worth the pilgrimage for us (2 flights and 3 hour drive from MKE). We definitely want to go back. My favorite thing may have been the trip out to Pottowatomie lighthouse. The ferries, the hike, the ladies in the tower. Just a magical day.

    Excited to see what you have in store for all of us in Wisconsin. Loved this first video. My top 5: 1. Cave Point- so beautiful. The access points to the shoreline and just listening to the water. 2. Whitefish Dunes- water, waves and walking along the beach area. 3. Eagle Tower views and Paula’s chili. Sounds like a perfect ending to a perfect day. 4. Hot Chocolate and all that homemade whip cream at Al’s ❤. Not sure about Swedish meatballs for breakfast. 🤔 5. Goats on the roof! So cool. I would love to see that.

    Thanks for watching, Teresa! It's hard to believe we had never heard of this area until a few years ago. Definitely one of our favorites. The goats on the roof are such fun to see. They seem pretty content to sit up there all day watching the crowds. Up next, Door County, Part 2 with one of our favorite restaurant experiences ever. Can't wait to share it with you.

    So beautiful in the county park. When we were there intrepid youngsters were jumping off the cliff into the lake. I talked to you both outside Al Johnson’s restaurant and butik in Sister Bay. Glad to finally see the vid of your travels in Door County. Favorite place of ours. We vacation there often. God bless.😊

    Great video! MY husband and I have been married 38 years and we've been to Door County 3 times and will be going again next week with our kids and grandkids! If you've never been to Washington Island on one of your trips you need to make that a stop next time! I'm looking forward to seeing some more of your vlogs in the future. :)

    Thanks so much! We are glad you enjoyed the video. We love Door County. There are so many fun things to do in that area. We did visit Washington Island while we were there, and we made another Door County video that includes that excursion.. So glad you have been able to visit there before and hope you have a great time with the kids and grandkids this time.

    This area looks amazing! I am Canadian and I adore all of Northern Michigan and the UP. I Have also done the Lake Superior Circle Tour. But I am super interested in Door County as it showcases the Niagara Escarpment. We have 900 km of the escarpment through Ontario and I have hiked its entirety (Bruce Trail). I enjoyed your video very much! Happy Travels!

    Hi Paula, great to hear from you. Thank you for watching our video. The state parks that we visited were Whitefish Dunes State Park near Sturgeon Bay (this surrounds Cave Point County Park) and Peninsula State Park near Fish Creek. We really enjoyed both of these parks. Hope you get to go there and enjoy them for yourself.
