It's no secret that neighbors can make or break a community. Pride of ownership shines in Sister Bay, and that's especially true in Orchard Highlands, which is "uptown" Sister Bay, but close enough to downtown that it's an easy walk (and one I make often) to dining, shopping, the beach, the festivals---everything that makes Sister Bay Door County's most popular destination.
And if you're ready to make Sister Bay a permanent part of your life, we have the perfect home for you at 10529 S. Highland Road (3 comments)
What started as a local "good-bye to our tourist visitors" party for the year-round residents of Sister Bay closing their seasonal businesses has grown into a truly huge economic and social event in northern Door County.

The year was 1945; World War II had just ended, and tourism in Door County was really just coming into its own. Door County (3 comments)

The Village was built around its beach and marina, and is also the only municipality north of the City of Sturgeon Bay that also has both public sewer and water.

Yet many, many people find the idea of offsetting the costs of the purchase and maintenance of their Door County home by doing some limited rental very attractive, and we have a lovely home in Sister Bay, within walking (6 comments)
