Ephraim

In postcard-perfect condition In Door County, there is a small village that has been named the most beautiful small town in Wisconsin. Visit Ephraim to see why: this Wisconsin town combines historic charm, natural beauty, and lakefront tranquility. It's a place to slow down and enjoy a scenic Wisconsin getaway that will undoubtedly provide much-needed R&R. Ephraim is right on Highway 42 and is difficult to miss when driving up the Peninsula - it's just past Peninsula State Park, between the villages of Fish Creek and Sister Bay.


It's far from a "large" village. Ephraim has a year-round population of less than 300 people, but during the summer and fall, the population explodes as visitors flock to the community for rest and relaxation. It's a lovely place to spend a vacation, but even if you only have a few hours, it's worth parking your car and strolling through the village. It's right on the water, with a soft sand beach and a long stretch of shoreline. Moravians founded Ephraim in the 1800s, and there are many historic buildings and churches along the bluff and lake. Anderson's Dock is a must-see along the lakefront.


This dockside warehouse has been signed by generations of boaters and is one of the county's most photographed locations. Wilson's Restaurant and Ice Cream is another location where you'll want to take photos if you can put down that delicious ice cream cone! The shop has been open since 1906, and each cone contains a surprise: a jelly bean tucked into the bottom!
