In Wisconsin, produce is everything. While Wisconsin is known for its dairy production, Door County, where Fish Creek is located, also produces a ton of cherries and white fish for the neighboring area. During your visit to Fish Creek, be sure to check out the fantastic restaurants that serve sustainable and locally-grown ingredients. Then, head off for some entertainment with plays, museums, and of course outdoor activities. Certain attractions may be temporarily closed or require advance reservations. Hours/availability may have changed.
