Lots Happening this Weekend in Snow Covered Door County!

February 2nd, 2012

We are so thrilled to announce that we finally have snow in northern Door County. And while there is not enough for skiing or snowmobiling, the landscape is beautiful and will serve as a beautiful background to this weekends events on the northern Door peninsula. So here are some suggestions:

Fish Creek Winter Festival: Events take place all over Fish Creek this weekend from human foosball to snow shoe dancing to minnow racing. How can you go wrong with all of that served up with brats, chilli, beer and music!

Also this weekend is the 6th Annual SOUP! Project sponsored by the Peninsula School of Art. The Peninsula Pulse has the “scoop on the soup” right here.

And don’t forget the High Point Inn has excellent winter rates this winter. Check them out before you head north. We’ll see you in the snow!

Create a Romantic Feast in our Luxury Door County Suite

December 28th, 2011

All items in this photo provided by Top Shelf Cafe and Gourmet

A visit to the High Point Inn in Door County’s most picturesque village – Ephraim – gives you the chance to have whatever kind of vacation you would like. Dining out, dining in…maybe a little of each. And our fully stocked kitchens offers you the chance to dream up a delicious feast in the comfort of your own luxury suite. Need some ideas? We’ve got them for you.

As you head north to the High Point Inn on your Door County getaway, take Highway 42 north at Sturgeon Bay and pull into the Main Street Market when you get to Egg Harbor. Head on over to the meat department and ask for an Angus Beef Tenderloin. Tenderloin is easy to make and is a wonderful meal to enjoy with someone special. Add a bottle of red wine from Main Street’s huge selection and you will have an evening to remember.

If your preferences lay more in the area of vegetarian or seafood selections, we have another idea for you. Drive on up to Sister Bay and stop by Top Shelf Cafe and Gourmet. There you will find a large selection of frozen vegetarian appetizers, jumbo sea scallops, King crab, Scottish salmon and more. Toss in a fresh loaf of baked French bread and some gourmet olives. Need I say more?

Let the High Point Inn be your romantic getaway destination this winter. We’ll make your visit special and guarantee you’ll be back again!

Our Ephraim location in the heart of the county is close to the handmade pottery hotspot of Ellison Bay, as well as the gallery and fine shop destinations of Sister Bay, Egg Harbor and Fish Creek.
