One of our favorite spots. Rock formations created by the crashing waves of Lake Michigan, a picnic area and nice paths through the woods along the shoreline. It's also magical in winter when the water droplets turn to "crystals" as waves crash against the shoreline. In summer, you'll see some brave "cliff" jumpers, but please be mindful of the conditions if you want to do try this; Cave Point can be very dangerous year round.

Walt's Woods is a beautiful, short loop walk that takes you through the woods to the lake and back. The twisting roots and trunks of trees and rock formations make it the perfect spot for trolls and fairies to call home. Though the trailhead is small and unassuming, you shouldn't miss a trip to Walt's Woods.

One of Wisconsin's most popular State Parks. Make sure to climb Eagle Bluff Tower. It's a new tower that gets to the top by stairs or by ramp which makes it inclusive to all. Even people with a fear of heights seem to enjoy the safe, gradual trip to the top. Check out some of the great hikes and beautiful biking. At the entrance you can get a map showing the wide variety of hikes and biking trails. They are all great! One of our favorite hikes is Eagle Trail. It's only two miles, but it takes you along the Niagara Escarpment. Lots of ups and downs, rock and roots can be an ankle twister and slippery when wet. Flip flops are not a good choice for this one. It's a gorgeous hike, but the park's most difficult. Nothing blocks hikers from the trail to the steep drop to the water below. A safety consideration for small children. With all of this taken into consideration, it's a beautiful hike showing part of the best of Door County! Nicolet Bay, within the park, has a swimming beach with kayak rentals and usually a food truck or two. Northern Sky Theater puts on family-friendly performances (tickets needed in advance). In the winter, bring birdseed (left for you at the cabin) along; birds eat out of your hands just outside the Nature Center.

Beginning in Sturgeon Bay and ending in Gill's Rock, the Door County Scenic Byway is a 66-mile drive that offers gorgeous views and recreational stops along the way. You'll probably be on it during most of your adventures in Door County, but it's worth a trip all the way to the Washington Island Ferry. The road's curves were designed to slow drivers down to enjoy the natural beauty of Door County.
