Romantic Places in Wisconsin

Apostle Islands, Lake Superior, Northern WIsconsin

Wisconsin’s northernmost peninsula carves into Lake Superior and the scenic archipelago known as the Apostle Islands. The national lakeshore includes 21 islands and 12 miles of mainland Lake Superior shoreline and pristine sandy beaches.

Door County, Lake Michigan, Northern Michigan

The “Cap Cod of the Midwest”, an 84 mile county that juts into Lake Michigan; tiny waterfront villages and turn-of-the-century lodges dot the landscape.

Lake Wahdoon

A private 50 acre lake located near Chetek, two hours east of Minneapolis.

Red Cedar Lake

Private 27-acre island called “Island of Happy Days” by its turn-of-the-century owner, wealthy lumber heir Frank Demming Stout. The remote wooded island setting is located in northwest Wisconsin, a 2.5 hours drive from the Twin Cities, and is accessible by ferry.

Geneva Lake

A 21 mile trail circles this lake. The “Hamptons of the Midwest,” Lake Geneva is a beautiful lakeside city filled with summer mansions once owned by heirs to the Montgomery Ward and Wrigleys fortunes.

Wisconsin Driftless Region

The Driftless Wisconsin Area is characterized by its beautifully sculpted topography – deep carved river valleys – derived from having escaped the last Glacial period. Forested hillsides reach down to valleys cut into limestone bedrock by cold-water trout streams. Land is farmed by the descendants of those who first settled here, by the Amish who adopted the area, and by a new breed of organic farmer.

Madison

Set on a peninsula between two glacial lakes, Madison is a progressive university town featuring a sophisticated cultural environment including Frank Lloyd Wright buildings, theater and arts festivals, museums, brew pubs, wine bars and a thriving restaurant and nightlife scene.
