Summer pleasures continue in Door County this month.  Come buy (or pick your own!) fresh cherries, indulge in Italian gelato or check out the sunset over the bay from your hotel window. Here are some of the many opportunities for travelers.
 

Overnight: Lull-Abi Inn of Egg Harbor is owned by a former corporate executive, who traveled a lot and got to know what it takes to make people feel comfortable.  After Bruce Hill had one bad work day too many, he bought this lovely inn in Egg Harbor.  Located at 7928 Hwy 42, Lull-Abi Inn is walking distance to the village shops and restaurants as well as Harborview Park.

While the inn sits on the east side of the highway, some of its 24 suites and rooms afford views of Green Bay waters. Included is a unique apartment, which has two bedrooms with king-size beds as well as living and dining areas and a fully equipped kitchen. Hill said it a popular choice for two couples traveling together or a family.

Also available are two suites--each with living and dining areas, king rooms (some with water views) and accommodations with two queen-size beds or two double-size beds.

"Our rooms are clean, we're friendly, and this is a comfortable place," Hill said.

Food and wine: You'll feel like you're in Italy as you peer into the glass-fronted case filled with gelato at Double Delites, 7818 Hwy. 42, Egg Harbor. Gelato is Italian ice cream, rich in flavor and artistic flair (and not so much butterfat as compared to conventional ice cream, which has 10%. Gelato has 4 to 8% butterfat).

And the ingredients come to Double Delites from Italy. About 60 options are available at any one time. Flavors rotate and include nine varieties of chocolate, tiramisu, cinnamon and the house specialty cherry explosion. The friendly staff serves up the gelato in a dish, cone or sundae.

Also available here is gourmet popcorn, espresso, smoothies, gifts such as soy candles and more. Don't miss Double Delites--whether it's hot outside or not. Check out the online video http://www.doorcountynavigator.com/food-dining/restaurant/types/gelato-ice-cream-custard-specialty
