Door County Wisconsin Guide - State & County Parks

Mark's Guide to Door County Wisconsin

Door County State and County Parks

With five Wisconsin State Parks, more than any other county in the United States, Door County is one of the best recreational areas of the state. Door County also has 19 county parks. Like the State parks, the county parks ranch from rustic to full featured. Cave Point County Park is one of my favorites and it is right next to Whitefish Dunes State Park. Whitefish Dunes State Park has changed over the years. It started out more a rustic hardly used park and now has evolved into one of the more popular State Parks.

Peninsula State Park by far is the most popular of all the State Parks. It is the busiest of all Door County State Parks. The park has loads of camping, beaches, golf, boat ramps, a lighthouse, outdoor theater, and loads of hiking trails. Peninsula State Park is located on the Green Bay side of Door County between Fish Creek and Ephraim. The Eagle Bluff Lighthouse is one of the popular stopping points. It offers tours during the summer and a great view of the Strawberry Islands.

Washington, DC is to lying what Wisconsin is to cheese. Dennis Miller

If you're looking for can-do, earthy-crunchy attitude then you've got to go to Wisconsin. Dar Williams

Wisconsin's a special place. Brett Favre

I love being from Wisconsin. Tanya Fischer

But the Wisconsin tradition meant more than a simple belief in the people. It also meant a faith in the application of intelligence and reason to the problems of society. It meant a deep conviction that the role of government was not to stumble along like a drunkard in the dark, but to light its way by the best torches of knowledge and understanding it could find. Adlai Stevenson

Other than motherhood, the eight years that I spent at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, I have incredibly fond memories of. It's a beautiful place, with four seasons up in Wisconsin. And really wonderful people. Laurel Clark

I've gotten to know a lot of great people here in all the different sports. It's fun. It's fun to get involved where you live. And this is where I live. I'm a registered voter here. I have my Wisconsin driver's license. Aaron Rodgers

I'm a Wisconsin kid, so I like brats and burgers and stuff like that. Cheese curds. J. J. Watt

As I've often said, Wisconsin's greatest strength continues to be the dedicated, hardworking people of our state. They go to work everyday, pay their taxes, and raise their kids with good, Midwestern values. Jim Doyle
