Door County Camping Retreat





These are pictures from our campground in Door County. This camp is close to Egg Harbor which is less than thirty miles from the very tip of the peninsula. We have never been to Door County before but we were interested in trying out the fishing in this part of Lake Michigan. Now we will have our chance to check it out. We are just waiting for it to warm up. Its been colder here than it was in January in Elephant Butte. Needless to say we haven't been out on the water yet --- brrrrrr.
The trillium ( the white flowers behind the picnic table) are blooming all over the campground. There are also daffodils and tulips blooming all over the place. They seem to love daffodils around here because almost every house and along many roadways they are blooming in thick clumps.
This campground was originally laid out in a circle and has been added on to over the years. You can see two more loops to the left of the circle and now there are more new sites not on the map. Each colored dot is a site. There are seasonal RVs here as well as sites for every kind of RV and tent. There are also a variety of rental cabins from very rustic to park model homes. People have been staying here on the weekends trying to camp but its been too cold to really enjoy it much. Jim checks the temp in Elephant Butte everyday-- its in the 90's -- and reminds me we could have stayed there and worked and been warm.
