Door County Wisconsin just might be the most perfect place to escape the city
during Summer, Fall and Winter months.
Early Summer cherry and apple blossoms canvas the Door Peninsula, bringing
with them another season of visitors to this amazing region. Door County's
shoreline explodes with Autuminal fire in October and November. Winter brings
tranquility under a thick blanket of untouched snow.
At the Whistling Swan Inn & Restaurant, we celebrate
these seasons with virve. Fire-side candlelight dinners, cozy down comforted
beds and a great breakfast of fresh baked pastries, locally roasted coffee
and fresh fruit await all our travelers.
This year we're offering "Perfect Weekend Getaways" designed for
you to escape the daily grind and discover a different way of life in beautiful
Door County
