Door County is one of the most photographed places in the Midwest, and spending any time here makes it obvious why. The scenery shifts dramatically from village to village, from the limestone blufftops and sweeping Green Bay views of Peninsula State Park and Ellison Bay to the quiet Lake Michigan shoreline of Baileys Harbor and the charming downtown streetscapes of Fish Creek, Ephraim, Egg Harbor, and Sister Bay.
These Door County photos capture some of what makes this place so hard to leave, the light on Eagle Harbor at dusk, the welcome signs that mark each village along Highway 42, the restaurants and shops and state parks and sunsets that define a Door County visit.
