Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin is one of America’s most beautiful hidden treasures. Sturgeon Bay is a scenic arm of the large Green Bay famous for its seafood and NFL team, the Green Bay Packers. The city, or rather small town of Sturgeon Bay is located at the end of the Door Peninsula. With a town population of just 865 and a county population under 10,000, Sturgeon Bay is a fantastic and quietly picturesque place to wind down from a tough week at the office!
The bay is linked with Lake Michigan via the Sturgeon Bay Ship Canal which is one of the major tourist attractions in the area while three bridges cross the bay including the historic ‘Michigan Street Bridge’ (Sturgeon Bay Bridge). This bridge, noted for its design is now on the list of American Historic Places and attracts many visitors each year, and you could be one of them.
When you get to Sturgeon Bay, it pays to shop around for hotel vacancies depending on your own tastes as the area offers some luxurious hotels which are certainly more comfortable and more expensive, designed for the traveler who likes to stay close by and soak up the atmosphere. On the other hand, the area caters to those who merely want a sparse room and a place to lay their head as they use their accommodation as a base from which to launch into all manner of day trips and excursions.
