Eagle Harbor Inn benefits as Sponsor or the Peninsula Art School's
5th Annual Plein Air Festival. Seven painters sought inspiration among our gardens, red market umbrellas on the Inn's Patio as well as our paired Adirondack chairs for their two hour quick paint with some artists creating up to three masterpieces. Paintings were available for sale framed, at the Art School's Gala. Consider planning your trip around the 2012 Plein Air Festival July 23-28, 2012. The beautiful picture above is the Inn's newest original painting by Lawrence Rudelach. |

BIKE RIDING LIKE A KID AGAIN ALONG THE HEDGEROWS & STONE FENCES ON A BEAUTIFUL SUMMER'S DAY...
Last week our guests Barbara & Chet Gerlach from Madison parked their car in Sturgeon Bay & biked to Ephraim for a spontaneous visit to Eagle Harbor Inn. They were making a three day bike trip of Northern Door & what intrigued me about their adventure was the fact that Barbara was renting an
ELECTRIC BIKE!
The idea struck me as one which would interest many of our guests who may feel they no longer see themselves riding bikes again, for whatever reason. In Barbara's case, she used only 1/4 of the battery's power in the 24 mile ride, and was proud of it! Knowing the battery was there with a guage to tell how much juice was left provided comfort & a personal challenge to use as little as possible. As we've told other guests about it they too are reliving the freedom felt on the open back roads of Door County! Visit
