"Naked Radio" is a wonderful evening's entertainment, full of funny lines, crazy sight gags and talented actor/musicians. Molly Rhode is beyond superb in playing a double-handful of characters and several musical instruments. Chase Stoeger facial expressions and body movements keep you in stitches. We've been repeating some of the memorable lines for the past three days and laughing all over again. Fun, fun stuff.

Incredibly good goat cheese offerings. Super creamy gelato. Superb sandwiches. The BEST chocolate chip cookie I have had in my life. Great wines and beers. Once we discovered this gem we came back almost every other day for something. Cheese to take home. Lunch. Gelato. A cookie. Cookies and gelato. Samples. A bottle of wine. Everything is top notch. We also went on the Farm Tour, which was an absolute delight. If reveiws only allowed one word it would be: GO!

Reviewed By legacyendeavors - Racine, Wisconsin

One of the best state parks in Wisconsin to say the least! This is an extremely beautiful place with great features throughout!
We really enjoyed camping in Nicolet Bay Area and being close to the bathrooms as well as the beach! There's a great snack bar/concession stand there and well kept showers. Bicycles are welcome and great to ride about in the park.
The golf course here is outstanding, the views all about including the bay and the trails beckons exploration. There's a park theater, gorgeous beaches and a wonderful play area for the children. Not too far away from the downtown of Fish Creek or the short drive to Sister Bay' Absolutely enjoyed the opportunity to camp here! Wonderful....

Can't say enough about what a great experience peninsula Players is. Each time we visit Door County we make plans to attend a play. It doesn't matter what the play is, we are never disappointed. The grounds on the shore of Green Bay at sunset is beautiful, harkening back to days of yesterday and a simpler time.

Francis Hardy Gallery

Reviewed By douglasl739 - Green Bay, Wisconsin

The Hardy Gallery was showing their 55th Juried Art Show when we visited the weekend before the Fourth. The Hardy is a seasonal gallery housed in an old barn on the Anderson dock just north of downtown Ephraim. The exterior of the barn is a well-known signature "book" for thousands of Door County tourists over the years. Photographers often shoot the barn against the limestone bluffs of Peninsula State Park across the harbor.

Door County is an arts community with a variety of two- and three-dimensional medium. The juried show featured 70 artists working in pencils and pastels all the way to pottery and sculpture. Most of the pieces have a professional rather than amateur quality that you might find in weekend art shows. An interesting exhibit this year asks visitors to exchange found object in their pockets for Door County seed balls that can be taken home and planted. In the past we have purchased pieces from the show. This year we are still thinking.

What a wonderful way to spend a sunny October afternoon meandering through the tranquil sculpture garden through the forest next to the main gallery. Edgewood Gallery is housed in a restored fruit barn from around 1918 with a small silo still attached. It's all so picture perfect!! They showcase over 150 artists featuring paintings, sculpture, clay, glass, jewelry, etc. that is presented tastefully. Thoroughly enjoyed the time spent there. The eagle and horses were my favorites as well as many pieces of jewelry. Such gifted artists!!!

Water Street Gallery

Reviewed By McGraths502 - Louisville, Kentucky

Water Street Gallery has recently undergone a transformation. But the art and the local knowledge of local artist Frederic Bridenhagen is wonderful. Fred clearly never met a stranger, and his incredible selection of reasonably-priced, beautifully matted and framed works of myriad local artists of various styles, makes Water Street Gallery a must-stop if you have any thought of purchasing local art. Door County has a multitude of talented artists and this gallery has works from many of them. The additional businesses on this properties grounds gives visitors a wide variety of items to shop from, and several eclectic styles. Located in the heart of Ephraim, no visit to this village would be complete without a visit to the Water Street Gallery!
