Whitefish Dunes State Park
Baileys Harbor, Wisconsin
Great For: Families. A five-minute drive through a forest of birch and beech trees brings you to a wide strip of white sand and dunes fringed with high grass on turquoise Lake Michigan. T+L Tip: At the Big Red Tent pavilion, naturalists answer questions about native flora and fauna. Where To Stay: Relax on a hammock at Blacksmith Inn. Beach Eats: Head to Door County’s The White Gull Inn for a classic fish boil: freshly caught whitefish cooked outdoors in a big black cauldron.
