We stayed at CedarCourt Inn which is a great location for walking the town or down to the water. So many nice shops to visit and restaurants to eat at, as well as a couple of coffee and ice cream places. Fall decorations are just beautiful! We ate at The English Inn which was superb, attended the play at Penisula Theater, White Gull for breakfast and Blue Horse for a coffee. Took the sunset boat ride. Peaceful and great music. Weather was good too!

We come to Fish Creek because it's a more central location. Fish Creek itself is one large tourist trap with outrageous cost(s) on everything. There are many folks that don't seem to mind that, but it's not for us. We come for the natural beauty of Door County, it's uplifting for our souls. Washington Island is, in my opinion, well worth the money we spent to go over there. I was expecting there to be more tourist trap sites, but there weren't. I would reference Mackinaw City, MI and Mackinac Island to those who have been there. Mackinac Island is just one large retail grab (as is Fish Creek, Egg Harbor, etc.) Yes, once you get past the "main drag" there are other sites to visit, but to get to them you must either bicycle, walk, or take a very crowded horse drawn carriage; but the moment you step off the ferry on to the island it is just store after store after store, and my goodness, the amount of people is staggering. It is not pleasant in the slightest. Just "get off the ferry, spend your money and get out of everyone's way!" Same thing in Fish Creek, minus the ferry of course. It wasn't even close to that scenario on Washington Island. Just a quick side note: Unless you're a democrat, maybe wait until after the election is over before heading up there, because they have their signs up everywhere, and I mean everywhere. We go on vacation to get away from that shite, not be smashed over the head with it. Under recommendations for Fish Creek it is Restaurants, Shopping, Alcohol/Bars, Accessories Shopping. If you want Scenery, Nature, Relaxation, Sightseeing, Lakes, you need to get out of Fish Creek (Egg Harbor, Sisters Bay, Ellison Bay, et all) in order to partake in the more natural activities such as I've mentioned.

Could hear conversations of people in room next to us, and parking lot. Then woke up and heard footsteps above and man using the toilet. Evidently although cute, clean, great location building was poorly built . Won’t be back.

If you want to shop, this is a good place. If you don't, the crowds make it less than pleasant. We visited at the end of September, thus after the main tourist season, and the place was still jammed: hard to get in anywhere for breakfast without a long wait, dinners only if you managed to reserve. Obviously many people love it, but we (who came to Door County for the nature) will stay somewhere else another time. Fish Boil at Kettle Black was very nice. Breakfast at Julie's was good. Other restaurants we ate at were just OK.

Fish Creek is hopping. Minutes south of Ephraim home of the famous Midsommar Apothecary and North of Egg Harbor. Centrally located to all small business shops and home to others like Castle Art. Local artisans sparkle everywhere.

We visited a schoolhouse and cabin in a nearby town. We had an awesome tour guide who knew so much of the local history. We also visited Andersons Store and the Barn. Very cool. We had Perogies and attended a Fish Boil. Peninsula State Park was beautiful. We also drove to White Dunes State Park and Cave Point. There are so many adventures and always something to explore.
