5 We love door county! Been going for years. We’re disappointed that the sister bay marina fest 8/23/2020 5:20 PM is cancelled but we understand and will still be coming up over Labor Day weekend!
6 we have been to door county several times and never get tired or bored with it, it is beautiful 8/23/2020 4:31 PM and people are so friendly and restaurants have the best food
7 We have been taking an annual trip every fall for the last 6 years with family from a different 8/23/2020 3:15 PM state. Door County offers us many options of things to do that fit our needs.
8 Love Door County 8/23/2020 3:00 PM
9 This is the first year I won't be camping because of the Corona Virus. 8/23/2020 2:41 PM
10 Thank you for practicing safety as far as Covid 19 is concerned! I look forward to our visit! 8/23/2020 11:26 AM
11 stayed away from the beaches this year - they were too crowded 8/23/2020 11:06 AM
12 None 8/23/2020 9:51 AM
13 The State of Wisconsin’s policies (reopening too soon and not requiring face masks) are the 8/23/2020 7:18 AM main reason I don’t feel safe in Door County
14 Miss You! 8/22/2020 10:47 PM
15 can’t wait to come!!! 8/22/2020 9:07 PM
16 Can’t wait until it’s safe to return! I miss the Door!! Usually come at least twice a year, and it 8/22/2020 8:25 PM has now been 17 months since our last visit
17 Can't wait to come. I grew up in Wisconsin and haven't been to Door before! 8/22/2020 7:22 PM

20 Door County is a very wonderful place to visit and spend time in. 8/22/2020 4:08 PM
21 I’m vendor to one of the shops in Fish Creek. My annual delivery is in early September...my 8/22/2020 3:54 PM 15th consecutive year. We usually stay a few more days to relax and enjoy the Door, but because of the virus we will only stay the two nights!
22 My husband and I love coming to Door County every year to get away from the normal rush of 8/22/2020 2:43 PM life. Everyone is so very kind to us and we feel so welcomed there. It is the only trip we can afford every year and like to call it our Home Away From Home.
23 I don’t believe everybody has to wear a face mask. If you are sick you need to take care of 8/22/2020 2:38 PM yourself and stay home but if you are healthy and clean and sanitary you should be fine.
24 I love Door County. Favorite relaxation destination 8/22/2020 2:13 PM
25 we love door county! 8/22/2020 1:41 PM
26 Stay affordable, small townships like Door County appeal to visitors because of the affordable, 8/22/2020 1:08 PM small town culture. Price gouging is tacky.
27 Love our visits to Door County 8/22/2020 12:27 PM
28 We stayed recently at the Hillside Inn in Ephraim, our first trip since early March. The staff 8/22/2020 12:00 PM followed all the CDC guidelines and more to make us feel safe and comfortable.
29 We went with our party if 6 in August and will be back at the end of September/early October. 8/22/2020 10:28 AM
30 We use to have a home there until moving too far away to take care of it. We loved being able 8/22/2020 8:26 AM

to be away from crowds of people and walk/hike/bike and just relax with nature around us. And I liked the shopping!
31 The relaxing feel that you get in Door County! 8/22/2020 7:57 AM
32 While I disagree with the mask mandate, I respect the challenges small businesses go through 8/22/2020 7:51 AM with this virus and will put the small business ahead of myself.
33 We stay in a hotel when we come because there is no room in camp grounds to bring our 8/22/2020 7:46 AM trailer : ((( We’ve been on waiting lists for a couple years now .
34 I love Door Co 8/22/2020 6:33 AM

38 Due to having most public restrooms closed at least having businesses allow for public usage 8/21/2020 8:10 PM without feeling awkward.

49 I miss Door County 8/21/2020 4:48 PM
50 We only visited Door County this summer because the county had a mask mandate in place 8/21/2020 4:31 PM and our resort has accommodations with a kitchen.
51 We have already visited 2x this year--in June & August. We always felt safety procedures 8/21/2020 4:12 PM were being followed. We will be back again this fall!

55 We have been coming to Door County every year for almost 20 years now. It's become a 8/21/2020 2:31 PM special getaway place for us.
56 Hope the day comes sooner than later 8/21/2020 2:15 PM
57 DC is my favorite place to vacation. 8/21/2020 2:00 PM
58 I LOVE Door County! Would love to win gift certificates. One of the reasons I haven't been 8/21/2020 1:41 PM able to visit recently is very tight finances.
59 we love Door County! 8/21/2020 1:28 PM
60 I have always had a good time when in Door County. And I do love that I can drive there 8/21/2020 1:04 PM anytime I want when time allows. Next year I WILL come in summer. Missed it this year.

61 Door County is the best! Thank you for making it a great place to visit over and over again. 8/21/2020 12:55 PM
62 Luv Door County, I like the unique-ness of the area and the local influence with the absence of 8/21/2020 11:45 AM the Big Market Chains. Everything comes from within the county, like its own separate world. (ie., Cherries, wine, beer, apples, confectionaries, Candles, clothes. Each of the Park's is quite different from each other and the lighthouses/islands around the peninsula are a wonderful backdrop for photo-ops. It's like Cape Cod with Fresh Water.
63 Anxious to get up there 8/21/2020 11:40 AM
64 I've heard and seen good things around the county! 8/21/2020 11:12 AM
65 My sister and I love lighthouses and have been wanting to visit for 5 years. 8/21/2020 10:53 AM
66 Love Door County 8/21/2020 10:31 AM
67 We LOVE Door County! 8/21/2020 10:04 AM
68 We have been coming every year for the last 20 years and always enjoy our stay. 8/21/2020 10:02 AM
69 DC is a treasure that we are lucky to have in WI 8/21/2020 10:02 AM
70 Hoping things get less a threat with COVID by 2021 8/21/2020 9:30 AM
71 Beautiful place to get away from a loud city 8/21/2020 9:24 AM
72 we love DC. Even if this year we can't enjoy it as we have in the past, we know we will in the 8/21/2020 8:49 AM future
73 Always enjoy Homestead Suites! 8/21/2020 8:18 AM
74 Social distancing at public events like the Farmer's Market in Bailey's Harbor should be 8/21/2020 5:55 AM improved. The vendors are spaced properly, but too many people in the plaza at one time/limited mask usage. It deterred us from visiting until the market was wrapping up. The plus side to that was more time with the Alpaca vendor.
75 We are still looking for a cabin, thanks for the info that has been sent. 8/21/2020 2:58 AM
76 Love Door County!! 8/20/2020 11:20 PM
77 can’t wait to come!!! 8/20/2020 10:20 PM
78 Looking forward to going. We haven't been there for more than 2 yrs. 8/20/2020 10:12 PM
79 My husband and I fell in love with Door County so much so that we moved here this year!! We 8/20/2020 10:03 PM are now Baileys Harbor residents...full time!
80 Love Door County trips :) 8/20/2020 9:13 PM
81 My favorite spot is Cave Point... 8/20/2020 8:49 PM
82 We love Door County and feel the establishments were careful and safety-conscious in our 8/20/2020 8:38 PM visit in early August.
83 My first time coming. I want it safe and I have a dog 8/20/2020 7:15 PM
84 hotels that take dogs 8/20/2020 6:44 PM
85 We have been visiting Door County for the past 15 years and look forward to continuing the 8/20/2020 6:43 PM tradition.
86 I would be willing to wear a mask inside stores but not outside or in hotel 8/20/2020 6:11 PM
87 spent 8 days at the Rushes in July. Everyone in Door County did a good job 8/20/2020 5:35 PM
88 Choices...we cancelled an earlier trip due to the fact not much was going to be open and we 8/20/2020 5:26 PM are hoping things will be better in September. People should get to choose whether to wear a mask.
89 We are actually up in Door County this week. Feel very safe and comfortable. The County has 8/20/2020 4:42 PM done better than other parts of the state during this pandemic. Great job!! Love it up here!
90 The 20 of us usually go out to dinner, but that is probably not going to happen. 8/20/2020 4:34 PM

91 We postponed our trip to Door County due to Covid-19 concerns in general, NOT related to how 8/20/2020 4:02 PM Door County is handling the virus.
92 Looking forward to just being there for some R & R--downtime!!! 8/20/2020 3:48 PM
93 I feel the staff in Door County are going out of their way to make customers feel safe and at 8/20/2020 3:37 PM ease
94 Outdoor recreation and the food 8/20/2020 3:23 PM
95 I do NOT and will NOT give my business to any place that ask or required ANYONE to wear a 8/20/2020 2:33 PM face mask. And I pay for purchases in cash.
96 Door County is my absolute favorite getaway; but, sadly, I feel it necessary to stay home this 8/20/2020 2:31 PM year. I sure do hope this COVID problem is resolved by next summer.
97 I love Door County and can hardly wait for next year. 8/20/2020 2:19 PM
98 Hopefully things get back to normal soon, not the new normal with masks! 8/20/2020 2:09 PM
99 Let's all believe this will pass soon, and we will all be able to work with the new normal. I hope 8/20/2020 1:57 PM and pray for all the business owners in Door Coounty.
100 Potential interest in purchasing property 8/20/2020 1:55 PM
101 We had an amazing time! 8/20/2020 1:40 PM
102 Always enjoy the hospitality! 8/20/2020 12:57 PM
103 For years I have wished that hotel/motel/resorts would accommodate people for one night and 8/20/2020 12:23 PM not have a two-night minimum stay. There has often been times when I would have liked to have gone up for two full days with a one night stay and haven't been able to due to this minimum stay request. Seems that local businesses, artists, restaurants, etc. lose out due to this circumstance.
104 Definitely miss Door County this year. 8/20/2020 12:16 PM

110 Can’t wait! Our trip will be different this year but I’m looking forward to it just the same 8/20/2020 11:12 AM

112 Always great to know you care! Love it in Door county! Keep up the great hospitality! 8/20/2020 10:41 AM

115 We love Door Co so much-would some day love to live there. It’s a scary time and we didn’t 8/20/2020 10:20 AM want to risk getting anyone in the family sick. Next year we plan to return at least twice-one evening with big extended family and another trip just the two of us. Here’s to better days ahead!
116 I love Door county! 8/20/2020 10:15 AM
117 Looking forward to our annual trip! We've been coming to the Door every year for the past 30 8/20/2020 10:12 AM years!
118 Love Door County! I went right before the county-wide, then state-wide, mask mandate, but 8/20/2020 10:00 AM was pleasantly surprised how many businesses and guests had them on - although Sister Bay was CRAZY crowded with cars/people & no one outside had them on. Doesn't personally bother me, but it encouraged me to explore other towns I don't usually spend as much time in which I ended up loving.

119 Annual family trip to Door County every labor day weekend for over 30 years... part of our kids 8/20/2020 9:51 AM tradition!
120 When we visited this summer we were surprised how few masks there were and within a week 8/20/2020 9:35 AM or so it became required to wear one when walking into a store, restaurant, or bar. Nobody likes wearing them but it helps to keep transmission down and it's only temporary.

129 Door County offers you a step back in time to a relax peaceful atmosphere and a fresh breath 8/20/2020 8:02 AM of nature. There is something for everyone to do in Door County. When you leave you feel you have restored your soul. In the times we are facing I am looking forward to my Door County escape.
130 Love Door County!! 8/20/2020 7:55 AM
131 Although I don’t worry about COVID for myself, I do recognize and sympathize with others and 8/20/2020 7:52 AM want to make everyone around me feel safe.

142 We are definitely planning on going to door county next year. sometime in the summer or fall. 8/20/2020 6:42 AM
143 Another concern is that we would find that shops, restaurants and quaint establishments are 8/20/2020 6:30 AM closed due to COVID or economic downturn.
144 I am not a big summertime visitor to Door County. I enjoy fall, winter, spring. I love the different 8/20/2020 6:16 AM spots for hiking and snow shoeing. I like the slower times.

154 Honeymooned there in 1985. Return every year to celebrate our anniversary. Never tire of Door 8/19/2020 10:32 PM County.
155 Door County is like its own little island. When I enter Fish Creek on 42, I feel like I go through 8/19/2020 10:28 PM this big gate that seals off the rest of the world. This is an amazing place to visit, especially during the summer and fall.

176 Door co is my favorite place to take a vacation! I have always had a great experience no 8/19/2020 8:07 PM matter where I stay or which town I visit. I have been coming there 1-2 times a year for the last 22 years, it is a family tradition.
177 Door County has became a family tradition. We were excited to start our 3rd generation this 8/19/2020 8:04 PM year. We look forward to years and more grandchildren to enjoy our vacation.

179 My mom lives and owns a store in Door County. I spent about a month, in all, in Door County 8/19/2020 7:51 PM this summer. I felt that Door County was doing a great job with implementing social distancing procedures including providing sanitizer, masks, requiring masks, closing tables, providing extra outdoor seating, etc. There were two businesses in particular that did not practice this social distancing, so we did not go there. I also appreciated the local "Mask up!" signs that both businesses and private homes had out front.
180 I just retired. My husband & I love Door County, one of our favorite places to travel to, to get 8/19/2020 7:43 PM some R&R.

191 I have been visiting Door County every year for over 40 years. It is usually the kick off to my 8/19/2020 7:04 PM summer. Unfortunately my sisters and I did not visit this past June.
192 We always love to get up to door county at least 1 or 2 times a year. 8/19/2020 6:51 PM
193 I am not worried about myself, and would not be worried if businesses didn't require masks for 8/19/2020 6:39 PM employees and guests.
194 Looking forward to seeing some shows and driving around the area. 8/19/2020 6:31 PM

200 Love Door County. If I can get away for a long weekend this year, I will definitely make it 8/19/2020 5:52 PM happen.
201 Although it is hard to take a vacation right now, I feel Door County offers such a wide range of 8/19/2020 5:33 PM outdoor experiences that are safer than indoor. The beauty in the Fall up there is one I have not experienced in person yet. I can't wait!
202 We love to visit Door County every year and we look forward to getting all things back to 8/19/2020 5:32 PM normal again.
203 We just returned from a weeks stay in Door County. Avoided crowded areas. Felt safe in the 8/19/2020 5:31 PM motel and also restaurants we visited. Had an awesome week!
204 Always stay at shoreline motel and eat at shoreline restaurant in Gills rock Love motel 8/19/2020 5:31 PM manager Bonnie and restaurant owner Mary We feel we will be comfortable sleeping and eating

215 we love door county and have been going for over 30 years. excited to be able to do something 8/19/2020 4:23 PM this year and camping is a great way to be distant!
216 We travel to Door County by Boat. Not an option in your survey. Surprised because it is a big 8/19/2020 4:19 PM part of summer tourism.
217 Traveled there some 35 years ago and just find it special...enjoy many of the changes too. 8/19/2020 4:15 PM
218 I have heard a lot of people recommending this place since my family moved to Wisconsin. 8/19/2020 4:15 PM Can’t wait to visit when it is safe to travel leisurely.
219 I would love to come to Door County in 2021 Covid 19 permitting. 8/19/2020 4:15 PM

223 We love everything about Door County and would have loved to visit this year but don't feel 8/19/2020 4:04 PM comfortable traveling right now due to Covid.
224 We have a trip scheduled for three days In early Octoberbut will probably defer this to next 8/19/2020 4:03 PM year. We were going to fly into Milwaukee and rent a car but we are not comfortable doing this. Our alternative was to drive, but as we are coming from Cleveland area - we are looking at a 9+ hour drive. We would prefer to make a Road tr out of this - stopping at places along the way coming and going. And, we do not feel comfortable doing this type of travel this year.
225 Food and culture 8/19/2020 4:00 PM
226 Door county is the only place we feel comfortable visiting this year. We've taken many trips 8/19/2020 3:51 PM around the country but Door County is the only place I've seen may husband really relaxed!
227 Love Door County. Family has been vacationing there for decades! This July's trip (3 nights/4 8/19/2020 3:48 PM days) felt very safe because of all the precautions taken.
228 Can't wait until I can come back! 8/19/2020 3:46 PM
229 Question hard to answer. I would like to return, not sure if it would be 2, 6, 7, 10 people. Might 8/19/2020 3:33 PM be family, might stay at a motel, maybe VBRO, maybe even camping. Have not made any plans yet as 2020 kind of stinks and not sure what travel outside of our state would be like. If it's a "no mask" state, I will not come. LOVE Door County, was there about a year ago and would like to return.
230 My daughter and I made a short trip (4days) to Door County in June. We rented a cottage and 8/19/2020 3:26 PM felt very safe. We were pleased to see widespread use of masks. This was before cases began to spike, and we had planned on still going later in the season. Once cases began to rise state wide we changed our plans, and rolled over our reservations for next year.

231 It’s a long drive to get to Door County. It would have to be for a few days and I’d feel most 8/19/2020 3:25 PM comfortable visiting after Covid infections slow down.
232 I love Door County, but I am disappointed that Peninsula State Park is not keeping up with 8/19/2020 3:23 PM keeping the park clean, especially the bathroom facilities.
233 the one place I wont go is the Bayside.... love the place but its too crowded and no one wears 8/19/2020 3:18 PM masks.. so we order carry out food
234 I will not be visiting restaurants that do not have outside seating 8/19/2020 3:01 PM

237 We have been coming to Door County since the early 90's Awesome . We where in door 8/19/2020 2:40 PM county most of July.we will be coming to door county every weekend in August. We bring our boat
238 Thank you for taking seriously the health concerns of the general public and striving to provide 8/19/2020 2:34 PM as "safe" a visit as possible.
239 I miss you. As does my family. 8/19/2020 2:16 PM

242 WE HAVE BEEN GOING TO DOOR COUNTY FOR MORE THAN 40 YEARS. WE REALLY 8/19/2020 2:13 PM ENJOY IT
243 We enjoyed Baileys Harbor, hope they bring back floaties and food trucks 8/19/2020 2:12 PM
244 Would love to visit Door County some day in the near future. I plan on taking a trip sometime 8/19/2020 2:11 PM in the next 5 months but have no destination in mind yet. I tried to take a day trip once years ago to Door County but got as far as Greenbay and had to turn around and go home. All my family who have been there say it’s beautiful up there. Would like to see for myself once. One place I would like to see is Washington Island and the restaurant with the goats on top of roof eating grass. That would be neat.
245 Frankly, the only place I'd consider traveling right now is Door County. I figure I can isolate 8/19/2020 1:55 PM there about as well as I can at home. Will venture out a bit but that's not why I come to DC in any year. It's the peace and quiet.
246 We come out to Madison from Boston to visit family and come to Door County as often as 8/19/2020 1:45 PM possible. Cross between Maine and Cape Cod. Breathtaking scenery and very friendly folks.
247 love door county festivals, too bad they are cancelled for 2020. 8/19/2020 1:42 PM
248 Doing things outdoors 8/19/2020 1:39 PM
249 Masks and following the rules/protocols are extremely important for everyone if we wish to 8/19/2020 1:05 PM contain this virus. I trust that the Door County officials and all the businesses are heeding the advice of the scientists and health officials. Please.
250 i hope I am able to come this Fall, but if things get worse, I may wait until Spring 2021. 8/19/2020 12:58 PM
251 I have been coming to Door County since I was a kid on family vacations and have continued 8/19/2020 12:52 PM to visit with my husband and with friends. Hoping to move there someday. LOVE IT!
252 I miss Door County visit for this year. 8/19/2020 12:52 PM

254 Unfortunately my husband had a kidney transplant 8 weeks ago so we need to stay 8/19/2020 12:21 PM quarantined. We love Door County & come every Fall! Will miss it terribly this year!
255 Info from state government on open areas of parks and rec areas will help us plan trips. 8/19/2020 12:05 PM Peninsula State Park is one of my favorites, and I don't even know if it's open; or, if I could camp there.
256 This year family joining. It will be great showing them what you have to offer. 8/19/2020 12:03 PM

257 Thanks for all the safety things in place. 8/19/2020 11:52 AM
258 If masks are still being forced, probably will not return until things go back to normal. Have NO 8/19/2020 11:50 AM problem social distancing but the mask shaming needs to stop. Did not support establishments that were being forceful with the mask nonsense.
259 I am looking for information on extended stay rentals. Minimum of 2 weeks. 8/19/2020 11:40 AM
260 If there are too many restrictions we will spend our time and money elsewhere 8/19/2020 11:20 AM

273 It was very disappointing to learn that the Door County board did not vote to make the wearing 8/19/2020 10:30 AM of masks mandatory. People who say this violates their rights....that's a very selfish attitude

335 We love Door Co. We have been coming up for over 30 years and still enjoy it. 8/19/2020 5:53 AM
336 I think everyone should assess and accept risks at a personal level. We do with every day 8/19/2020 5:52 AM things such as driving, eating at a restaurant, jumping into a lake to swim, kayaking down a river; even talking on a cellphone can supposedly give you brain cancer and yet we all do it! Life is not guaranteed day to day. Get out and live it! If I die from Covid 19, well that would suck but it was my time to go. Hopefully I am out doing something fun in my last days.

363 Thank you for asking. Traveling is stressful when you don’t know what to expect. Many 8/18/2020 11:54 PM business websites I Googled did not have up to date information on their responses to Covid. A simple header explaining procedures and expectations is appreciated. I had to and was still unsure, even using your website.
364 I really missed coming up to Door County this year. Especially since at the time, Wisconsin 8/18/2020 11:35 PM was an option about wearing face masks. I hope my reservations for next year will be fulfilled as long as this pandemic slows down.

369 I hope Door County can somehow balance keeping its charm and beautiful outdoor 8/18/2020 11:15 PM surroundings with the increased number of people who are discovering/rediscovering it as a destination. :)

401 At least once a year I come to Door Co alone. I am 74. I started these mental health trips 8/18/2020 9:59 PM about 20 yrs ago. I can come and go when I want,I can eat wherever I want or even get a frozen dinner at Main Street Market to take back to my motel room. I can go to as many shops as I want when I want. It is amazing how great I feel,so free. Our family comes during the summer,now 3 generations,total of 10. Lots of laughs and making many memories. Door County is my HAPPY PLACE.

408 We love door county and we’re very sad we had to cancel our trip in may 8/18/2020 9:52 PM
409 I think overall it's easy to social distance in Door County. We were able to stay this summer at 8/18/2020 9:46 PM a location where we had very little contact with other people. We saw quite a few people wearing masks and we saw signs on establishments asking people to wear when they entered. We felt very comfortable and safe in Door County
410 love everything about Door County, never had a less than great time there 8/18/2020 9:46 PM
411 My trip to Door County is still contingent on me feeling safe to travel. Which means I need 8/18/2020 9:45 PM assurance that resorts, restaurants, Air BandBs etc are going above and beyond what is required to maximize health and safety.
412 Love Door County 8/18/2020 9:44 PM

432 We were disappointed that the resort we stayed at could not keep activities going with 8/18/2020 9:14 PM modification. It was an all or nothing. Not very creative in adapting new methods to keep things going.
433 It has been a few years since I have been there and I really look forward to returning to Door 8/18/2020 9:14 PM County.

448 I think Door Co. is doing a great job with masks & sanitizers 8/18/2020 8:56 PM
449 We visited in July and were not disappointed. We always find plenty to do and new foods to 8/18/2020 8:56 PM sample. Looking forward to a fall visit.
450 I wasn’t happy with the visitor center MUST mask no exceptions on our last trip up, I am 8/18/2020 8:54 PM unable to wear a mask and I was so glad Door county let me keep my civil liberties and have freedom of choice to mask or no mask! The biggest reason we went and are planning on going again. It is a mandate NOT LAW. It is no more of a virus like the flu and we have never in history made it mandatory to wear a mask everywhere. If I am sick I stay home. If I am out I use common sense and I focus on my health and making my immune system strong and I DO NOT LIVE IN FEAR and I live my life like normal! I look forward to seeing Door County next month again.
451 Love going for Apple season 8/18/2020 8:53 PM
452 We LOVE LOVE being in Door County. The minute we enter a sturgeon Bay, we feel lighter 8/18/2020 8:53 PM and more at peace
453 This is our favorite vacation spot! We love the peacefulness and hiking. We also enjoy all the 8/18/2020 8:51 PM restaurants, shopping, wine, beer, cider, orchards, galleries and sunsets.
454 We love door county and I keep telling people how safe we felt when we were there in June 8/18/2020 8:49 PM and July. Much safer than in our hometown. Everyone was respectful about wearing masks!

460 Cancelling our September reservations this week and waiting until next year in hopes of “mask 8/18/2020 8:40 PM requirements” being lifted. Stop the mask frenzy. Other basic practices offer more “protection” without other harmful health ramifications.

467 I hope that the businesses of Door County can relax a bit once the governor's mask order runs 8/18/2020 8:30 PM out and allow the public to decide what's best for each individual.
468 I love Door County, have stayed in several places before and even camped there. Love the 8/18/2020 8:24 PM restaurants and shops and the peaceful atmosphere. It is a nice escape in this pandemic to get away for the day.
469 I love DC so please let's keep all this insanity in perspective and not shame and blame each 8/18/2020 8:23 PM other.
470 We were very disappointed to have to cancel the trip we’d planned for August 24-26. But with 8/18/2020 8:21 PM Wisconsin’s Covid cases on the rise several weeks ago, we thought it best to plan to come another time. We are Looking forward to setting new dates to be there!

475 We love Door County and it’s uniqueness. No chain facilities and so much character. 8/18/2020 8:16 PM
476 We went in July, even though we were worried, but everyone was requiring masks, tables in 8/18/2020 8:14 PM restaurants were more spread out, safety was clearly a priority - all of that combined made us so glad we came.
477 I'm still very hesitant in visiting because I want to be considerate. So if I do come (because I 8/18/2020 8:14 PM love Door County), I try to do activities away from others.
478 I love Door County. 8/18/2020 8:13 PM

480 My concern with traveling to Door County is I have "underlying conditions and if I get the virus, 8/18/2020 8:08 PM I want to be hospitalized where I live, not 400 miles away.
481 Usually make 2-3 trips to the Door each year 8/18/2020 8:03 PM
482 Can't wait to get back to visit. 8/18/2020 8:02 PM
483 We visited 2 weeks ago and was very uncomfortable to find few visitors were complying with 8/18/2020 8:02 PM mask order. One has station by Walgreens heading out of town the workers didn't have masks on and when asked they said they aren't doing it. They went on to say the sheriff said don't bother calling us to report mask violations because we aren't going to waste officers time over a mask. That is very disturbing!

515 I would love to come back this fall but not sure if we can make it. Some of it is our schedule, 8/18/2020 7:26 PM uncertainty of what's happening and fear of going somewhere were we are unable to maintain that social distance.
516 I miss Door County. This is the first year I haven’t traveled there in many years. 8/18/2020 7:24 PM

519 In the past prior to covivid 19, my husband and I do camping in small pop up camper. If we do 8/18/2020 7:18 PM camping this year, would feel most comfortable knowing restroom/shower cleaned and disinfected often.

581 When we were in Door County in July and August we noticed too many visitors not social 8/18/2020 6:13 PM distancing. We actually heard some people say they had come to escape restrictions in their Home Counties or states. This did not make us feel very safe.

654 I hated to cancel our April reservations, as we look forward to our visits to Door County twice a 8/18/2020 4:40 PM year. Thought we could give it a try in August. Our friends drove from Sturgeon Bay all the way to the ferry for Washington Island. For that entire distance, they did not see ANY visitors wearing masks. So sad to know that the face mask rule is not being enforced so that people who are high risk can have SOMETHING in life that feels like vacation. We can't wait to be able to visit because we absolutely love Door County.
655 Hoping that we can stop all the sickiness sand death. 8/18/2020 4:39 PM

679 During our visit in June - we felt comfortable eating anywhere there were outdoor options. We 8/18/2020 4:21 PM also visited many galleries and shops & was happy to see most staff were wearing masks. As always - all state & County parks were amazing.

732 We had a trip planned for February, but cancelled due to being pregnant. Then reschedule for 8/18/2020 3:31 PM May, but COVID happened, now the baby will be born in September so we pushed the vacation to next year.
733 We really won't be coming back til Fall 2021 but that was not an option in question 1. We had 8/18/2020 3:29 PM to reschedule due to Covid but thankfully our Vrbo owners made it easy and without question. Since Door County has visitors from many states, really hope as a county its businesses/leaders/residents will act together to make travel safe for all despite the overall lax approach WI has as a whole. Can't wait to get back.
734 Love you Door County. Sorry we missed our Memorial week, but made it in April and see you 8/18/2020 3:28 PM end of September.

754 Door County is my happy place. I love it. 8/18/2020 3:07 PM

756 We would have stayed overnight as we normally do this year, but bought a house, so we were 8/18/2020 3:06 PM low on funds.
757 I heard Wisconsin required people to wear masks on Zoom, yikes! Study the governor of South 8/18/2020 3:06 PM Dakota and the results. I might go to SD instead.

760 Live Door County and have no worries vacationing here. Was there in May 2019 and December 8/18/2020 3:02 PM 2019. Was hading to Ireland, Maine or Canada 2020 but with COVID decided to stick with our closest vision of Maine an head back to DC.
761 As far as wearing masks... outdoor should not require masks. If I am walking a trail or the 8/18/2020 3:02 PM streets , no masks should be required
762 Feel the need to get out. 8/18/2020 2:58 PM

777 I have been visiting Door County for 35 years. Because of Covid we are only coming once this 8/18/2020 2:45 PM year instead of our normal 4-5 visits. I would also like to add that if the Stone Quarry development is passed, we will be finding a new area for our get aways. The Quarry area is one of the features we enjoy while there and it’s development will destroy another feature of the counties beauty.
778 I love the friendly residents and restaurants 8/18/2020 2:44 PM

793 I have wanted to come to Door County for years. Now with COVID-19, I don't know whether it 8/18/2020 2:35 PM will happen or not.
794 Stay safe and hope to be able to make it up there this year! 8/18/2020 2:34 PM
795 I'm a 66-year-old widow who has trouble with stairs and uneven surfaces. When I look for 8/18/2020 2:34 PM lodging, it's very important for me to find information on accessibility. I don't need a cane, don't park in handicapped parking, but am traveling on my own and need to know the lay of the land so to speak. I need to know how flat and level it is. Please think more about the needs of older adults. Thanks!
796 I love Door County and have for many, many years! 8/18/2020 2:32 PM

809 Love Door County, normally would have been up there at least 2 times by now. Cant wait to 8/18/2020 2:21 PM come next month.
810 Door County is a special place. Too bad COVID happened. 8/18/2020 2:21 PM
811 Can't wait to visit Door County again! 8/18/2020 2:21 PM
812 In the next couple of years, all this is going to change. Unfortunately there are too many 8/18/2020 2:19 PM people who can't handle change. What work last year or years before won't work now.
813 Please consider having service folks wear Smile Masks - basically a mask incorporating a 8/18/2020 2:19 PM clear plastic shield window over the mouth of the wearer. This would be very helpful as it would allow lipreading. This is a HUGE aid to understanding speech muffled by cloth masks. Minimal cost. Maximum discernment of speech.
814 I love Door County. I have been coming there since I was a kid. As a family of four, we usually 8/18/2020 2:19 PM are there this week. However, Covid 19 has made us alter our plans.
815 Please make masks mandatory for all! This is the only way we can protect the spread of Covid 8/18/2020 2:18 PM
816 One of the things we love about Door County is the absence of chain restaurants, hotels & big 8/18/2020 2:17 PM box stores.
817 Door County is our favorite place to visit. We were married on Washington island years ago. 8/18/2020 2:17 PM Have not visited the island in a few years. Definitely need to go back. Would love to stay on the island someday.

820 We enjoy 5-6 trips to D.C. a year. Love our time there in all seasons. Always worth the 6 hour 8/18/2020 2:16 PM trip!
821 Love the Lake Michigan side. Incredible shops and restaurants serving sea good. 8/18/2020 2:15 PM
822 We have a long and wonderful history with Door County. In fact my Uncle Morrie spent college 8/18/2020 2:15 PM summers there picking cherries. We hope to be moving there in a few years. We Love Door County!

834 Love Door County- especially parks and Shipwrecked restaurant ! 8/18/2020 2:07 PM
835 I was not planning to come to Door County this year, but it feels like the perfect getaway from 8/18/2020 2:07 PM Chicago. I have only taken a couple of Fridays off work here and there and desperately need a weekend away! My husband and I are currently talking about/planning a trip to Door County in October, but will likely wait to book/reserve anything until about 2 weeks out given how things change. I was pleased to see that Wisconsin is coming off Chicago's travel order today! We likely would not have made it up if we had to quarantine for 14 days after returning home to Chicago.
836 Thanks for asking 8/18/2020 2:06 PM

867 We haven't missed a visit to Door County in the last 20 years, I hope this won't be the first. 8/18/2020 1:45 PM Rules and restrictions change so quickly we are not certain if we are going on a trip or not this year.
868 Been going there since 1990–bought a time share at the Rushes 1995 8/18/2020 1:44 PM
869 I grew up in Door County and love coming back time and time again. We rent a hose every 8/18/2020 1:44 PM other year with our adult kids and grandkids. Plus I still have family living there.
870 Miss being there. My favorite place to visit. 8/18/2020 1:43 PM
871 My son traveled to DC last weekend. He reported low mask compliance and no enforcement. 8/18/2020 1:43 PM This frustrates me and if I don’t see compliance in October, I’ll need to rethink my travels to DC in the future.
872 My children and grandchildren rented a home to celebrate my 77th. Will also be back this fall 8/18/2020 1:43 PM to enjoy colors with a friend
873 We love to golf there also. 8/18/2020 1:43 PM
874 this will be my first trip up since we moved, from Florida, to Wisconsin after being gone for 42 8/18/2020 1:42 PM years. I had never travelled to Door Cty as a child but want to come up now as adult with my husband to see the beautiful country and know we will appreciate it.

882 We did not plan on going to Door County this past summer, but did emd up choosing it as our 8/18/2020 1:36 PM vacation destination when all of our other plans were cancelled. I liked the idea of being only a 3-hour drive from home and felt like most places were strongly enforcing masks and cleaning. We had such a great time that my family wantsto make Door County an annual tradition.
883 Looking forward to our trip. It is a great and relaxing place to visit. I hope COVID has not 8/18/2020 1:36 PM changed this.

889 Felt as if most places tried their best this year. 8/18/2020 1:32 PM
890 I wish there weren't a mask mandate. I feel they are completely useless. I wear one when 8/18/2020 1:32 PM required, but since I have medical issues that prevent long-term wear I can't enjoy the fun indoor activities (mostly shopping) that I used to. I'm saving lots of money, but it's also hurting all those small shops I love.
891 Looking forward to coming 8/18/2020 1:31 PM
892 We were just in DC from July 31st to August 11th. We were very happy with most restaurants. 8/18/2020 1:30 PM We did try and stay away from crowds and crowded places.
893 See ya’s when I get there. 8/18/2020 1:30 PM
894 Please enforce mask rules. I'm tired of patrons who'll wear one to get in the front door, and 8/18/2020 1:28 PM then remove.
895 we love Door County, its been our favorite place to go for years 8/18/2020 1:28 PM

907 Let me tell you a story about a shark: One day a shark is spotted in the water offshore from 8/18/2020 1:19 PM the beach. Immediately, 100% of the people exit the water. Once the shark has left and it's declared safe: * 10% of the people immediately return to the water * 80% will wait and see, returning to the water as each person feels comfortable. * 10% will not go in the water for the rest of the day, or even tomorrow or next week. I tell you this story because Door County is pandering to the last group of 10% who are afraid and scared of catching a virus. Yet, while
Destination Door County Travel Sentiment Survey Data collected August 18-23, 2020 32 / 79 Travel Sentiment Visitor Survey – August 2020 SurveyMonkey
everyone is bending over backward to cater to this vocal 10%, the other 90% have to pay the consequences. In this case, the 90% have to endure mask mandates, social distancing, canceled activities, canceled festivals, etc. – all because the 10% continue to raise a rucuss and choose to remain scared of something the science, data, and facts have shown to be otherwise. My encouragement is to do the bare minimum required by the Health Department. Then let the 90% live freely. Let the 10% stay home.

918 We love Door County and have for years. Even before all of this "pandemic" we noticed a bad 8/18/2020 1:14 PM change in the visitors and environment. More impatient people who do not appreciate the beauty. A lot of trash on the streets last visit and a lot of "trash" walking around not respecting the pristine environment.

922 I've heard mixed reviews about pandemic safety from several people who visited DC prior to 8/18/2020 1:12 PM me. I hope we find mostly masks.
923 Please keep those chain restaurants out of the area it is so refreshing to try different things 8/18/2020 1:11 PM and to not have kids begging to go to a fast food restaurant.

926 I was very disappointed that I was not able to make the trip to Door County in June 2020 8/18/2020 1:09 PM beacause of COVID 19.

932 We were there in July for ten days. Loved it but very respectful of Covid and wore a mask 8/18/2020 1:05 PM where necessary. Dined outdoors on most occasions.
933 We love Door County! 8/18/2020 1:05 PM
934 Stay strong, wear masks! 8/18/2020 1:04 PM
935 Prayers we all stay safe and well so can come! 8/18/2020 1:04 PM
936 We love Door County. We spent our honeymoon at the old Wagon Trail Resort 32 years ago 8/18/2020 1:03 PM and have tried to get up there every year since, at least for a day trip. I feel safer in Door Cty than I would anywhere else during this pandemic.
937 Love Door County and felt very safe in early August when I was there for 5 nights!! 8/18/2020 1:02 PM

940 Thank you all (restaurants and hotels) for patience and understanding and EXTRA EFFORTS 8/18/2020 1:02 PM during COVID! We sincerely look forward to experiencing the DOOR this Fall.
941 I would not want to miss our annual fall trip...but we did have to cancel our annual summer trip 8/18/2020 1:02 PM with our families.
942 I am 75 years old and a previous resident of Wisconsin (Milwaukee and Kenosha). I have 8/18/2020 1:01 PM traveled to the Door since I was three years old staying as a child at The Edgewater Lodge and becoming friendly with the Helgesons, played a lot with Butch Helgeson (Ellis Eugene)growing up (RIP Gene) and have only fond memories of Ephraim and The Door! I used to come almost every year, but missed last year being in Florida and would have come this year except Covid- 19 has kept me from not traveling at all since March 2020. I will be back provided good health and ability. K. Richard Wells
943 Hang in there! Happy you are supporting the small businesses! 8/18/2020 1:01 PM

961 Would love to return if safe to do so 8/18/2020 12:53 PM

964 Visited 30 + time. 8/18/2020 12:52 PM
965 For now, we'll take day trips to Door County where we can be outdoors not around people 8/18/2020 12:51 PM without having to wear masks. And use curbside pick up and drive throughs for food. No plans for overnight lodging until things are safe.
966 I think we were in Door County 4 nights last year. This year it will be 2. But instead of spending 8/18/2020 12:51 PM $150/night we will splurge and spend $270/night.
967 I would love to come up for an extended weekend in the Fall, but it's too hard to know where 8/18/2020 12:50 PM we'll be at with this virus to plan more than a few weeks ahead. Our last rental was not too flexible with cancellation/refunds and we don't want to get 'stuck' again. I'm also concerned about the local residents of Door County and whether they want to be exposed to visitors considering the health system is smaller. I felt okay at a private rental, but wouldn't want to stay in a congregate setting like a resort. That said, I still ran into issues when I came back because WI was added to Chicago's quarantine list while we were up there and some of my doctor appointments had to be rescheduled because they wouldn't see me since I had traveled. Whether or not we come up again soon will depend on all those factors.
968 It is hard to feel comfortable during this pandemic, but if I go into an establishment and it looks 8/18/2020 12:49 PM clean and people are wearing masks, I feel that they are also doing things that cannot be easily seen to keep their business a safe place for customers/guests.
969 Love door county. Not one thing that we don't like. 8/18/2020 12:48 PM
970 we'll get there someday 8/18/2020 12:47 PM
971 Should be freedom of choice if you want to wear a mask. Some of us have a medical reason 8/18/2020 12:46 PM why we can't
972 Love it there 8/18/2020 12:46 PM
973 I have not been to Door county in 24 years! I'm very excited. 8/18/2020 12:46 PM
974 Love Door County. We’ve been visiting since 1976! 8/18/2020 12:46 PM
975 Looking forward to Autumn in beautiful Door County! 8/18/2020 12:46 PM
976 Enjoy staying in September . Hopefully, next year . 8/18/2020 12:46 PM
977 We go to Wisconsin at least once a year and have visited door county during the day. Although 8/18/2020 12:45 PM it is nice there, we have never spent significant time there because in our opinion everything is overpriced compared to other places we can go.
978 We love coming to Door County! 8/18/2020 12:45 PM
979 When visiting in August, I felt safe as guidelines were followed by bars, restaurants and shops. 8/18/2020 12:45 PM
980 I'm so sad we won't be able to visit this year, but am looking for to next year! 8/18/2020 12:45 PM
981 I do not have much concern over COVID-19. We planned on participating in the Door County 8/18/2020 12:44 PM Triathlon but it was canceled. Door County is our place to go relax and get away and we ate looking forward to spending Halloween there!
982 We have been going to Door County for over 30 years, had our honeymoon at the “Proud Mary” 8/18/2020 12:44 PM in Fish Creek, the most beautiful parks, best restaurants & shops, fun places to stay,& the people are very pleasant to us tourists who invade your county a good part of the year...every year.
983 COVID-19 is keeping me home. I do not go in stores and use curbside pick up for everything. 8/18/2020 12:44 PM

990 I will not be returning until the businesses no longer require masks & until they stop pushing 8/18/2020 12:41 PM their political agendas. The focus should be serving the customer, not worrying about who is/isn't wearing a mask. As for the employees, it's extremely poor customer service to wear a mask. You cannot build a relationship with someone when you cannot see their face, it's difficult to hear someone when they're speaking with their mouth covered, and it's unsanitary for a multitude of reasons.
991 I really really miss my trips to Door County! 8/18/2020 12:41 PM
992 In July we were pleasantly surprised at how well businesses were adhering to safety plans. 8/18/2020 12:41 PM 99% of people had masks on. Earlier in the summer we heard and saw that barely anyone was wearing masks in Wisconsin. Bravo, DC businesses.
993 I love visiting the area. One of my favorite places. 8/18/2020 12:41 PM
994 Loved my first visit there In July so much! My in-laws visit several times a year. 8/18/2020 12:41 PM

998 We did visit in June. Only once did we feel uncomfortable. In a bar as it got more crowded. 8/18/2020 12:38 PM
999 Disappointed on cancelling of the fests. 8/18/2020 12:38 PM
1000 I love Door County and for the last I have been lucky to come for a visit once a year. I hope I 8/18/2020 12:37 PM will not have to cancel.
1001 I think most Door County establishments are being extremely cautious and doing the best they 8/18/2020 12:36 PM can to make visitors and residents feel safe. I am hoping tourism is fairly good and able to give the permanent residents enough money to be able to continue through the winter and into business in 2021.
1002 I have to wear a mask all day at work and know its not fun. I honestly feel is employees or 8/18/2020 12:36 PM customers want to wear them by all means the should, at the same time if someone doesn't feel the need they shouldn't have to. Personally I don't wear it, but I keep my distance from people.
1003 From Door county 8/18/2020 12:36 PM
1004 Hi 8/18/2020 12:35 PM
1005 So happy that Door is open for business. Traveled there this summer with my husband and 3 8/18/2020 12:34 PM kids - we have been doing so for the past 20+ years. And the fall weekend with the gal pals is a new tradition for 3+years and counting. There is SO MUCH to love about Door County -- always trying new places and new adventures.
1006 Missed going in July 2020, but felt we needed to pass this year due to increased Covid-19 8/18/2020 12:33 PM cases. Plus all the various out of state guests whose states have different Covid-19 rules made me not feel safe enough to go.
1007 I like it 8/18/2020 12:33 PM
1008 None 8/18/2020 12:32 PM

1011 We have been visiting for over 25 years and never tire of what Door Co has to offer! It is our 8/18/2020 12:31 PM "happy place"!
1012 I feel face coverings should be up to the individual, not required. If someone isn't comfortable 8/18/2020 12:30 PM being out in public, they should stay home.
1013 I don’t feel like I want to wear a face make outside. Inside stores I will.social distance is 8/18/2020 12:30 PM important to me
1014 I rent my condo through VRBO. My customers have been cancelling because they don't want 8/18/2020 12:29 PM to go on vacation and be forced to wear face masks. Please push back against the democrats who are blowing COVID out of proportion in an effort to win the election.
1015 This past weekend we hosted my daughter’s wedding At Gordon Lodge . Outstanding effort on 8/18/2020 12:29 PM their part that demonstrated to us their concern in protecting us. and taking all of this seriously. It was very important to us and the reason why we signed contract with them and did not go back to initial venue in Fontana WI when May 2020 wedding had to be cancelled. We know the CDC guidelines work when practiced by all.
1016 I miss not making it to the Door now for 3 years. I can't wait to return to its beauty. 8/18/2020 12:28 PM
1017 Favorite place to visit for 50 years 8/18/2020 12:28 PM
1018 We have visited Door Co. annually ( sometimes 2-3 times/yr.) since 1980! 8/18/2020 12:28 PM
1019 One of my favorite places in Wisconsin! 8/18/2020 12:28 PM
1020 I have heard so many great things I want to visit!~ 8/18/2020 12:27 PM
1021 We are VERY careful about Covid safety precautions. I'm pleased with how the majority of 8/18/2020 12:27 PM businesses handled it even before the mask mandate. I hope the county continues to have one if it's withdrawn. I want to visit, I WANT to spend my money safely, but if I don't feel safe, I won't come. We specifically chose Scandinavian Lodge and Birchwood Village Homes as they have Covid protocols and have outside entrances to the places we rented. However, I think Birchwood did a better job. They had more protocols in place than other places. They deserve a special commendation.
1022 Everyone in Door County is doing a great job this past July when I visited. 8/18/2020 12:27 PM
1023 Looking forward to enjoying the Door County area 8/18/2020 12:27 PM
1024 We are so excited to make it up this fall!! 8/18/2020 12:26 PM
1025 Made a trip to Gills Rock about three weeks ago. Ate at Shoreline restaurant outdoors. All 8/18/2020 12:26 PM workers and patrons were wearing mask. The tables were wet up for socially distantly. Felt very comfortable. First time eating at a restaurant since March 13.

1030 Love Door County from multiple previous visit 8/18/2020 12:24 PM
1031 My husband and I spent time in DC in July. Mostly pleased with staff/workers following proper 8/18/2020 12:23 PM social distancing /cleaning and sanitizing guidelines.! Most guests wore masks.
1032 I love Door County. Despite some people's negative perceptions about how WI was handling 8/18/2020 12:23 PM COVID, my family and I did not experience any concerns in DC, and we noticed businesses, employees, hotels, and travelers in general following recommended guidelines.
1033 Thank you. 8/18/2020 12:22 PM

1038 Door is too crowded to come up often. I used to frequent (or rent) my place several times a 8/18/2020 12:20 PM month...but not during these times. I wish you wouldn't advertise like it's OK up there. I will be back, you have so much to offer, it will get better!

1043 We’ll get through the Covid 19 thing. Just need to practice safe behaviors, be willing to adjust 8/18/2020 12:19 PM our plans and vote this November. Regarding masks, my responses are dependent on where the country is with regard to Covid 19 prevention.
1044 Northern sky is missed greatly 8/18/2020 12:16 PM
1045 So excited about getting away to Door County! We try annually to get up for the foliage; this 8/18/2020 12:16 PM year a bit early... but that's okay. We did Galena in July. Not too many places are 'safe' enough to visit without having to do 2-weeks of lock-down once back... nor close enough to drive! Some extra cash would be awesome for this trip. :) Thank you for the survey.
1046 Looking forward to our 3rd annual trip to Washington Island with family, including the young 8/18/2020 12:15 PM grandchildren.

1071 Door County businesses and government have been too soft on enforcement of wearing 8/18/2020 12:05 PM masks even when there are Health Dept and Governor orders to do so. if Door County was stronger and safer in the mask wearing issue, we and many friends and family would visit sooner and more often

1084 Would love to win this contest!!!! 8/18/2020 11:59 AM
1085 I love Door County; it's cleanliness, uniqueness, beautiful open spaces and of course beautiful 8/18/2020 11:59 AM water views. The people are very friendly. There is something to do for everyone. I have been coming here for 41 years, often several times each year, through all seasons. Equally, I feel very safe in D.C. I often travel alone, as well as with family and /or friends. I have introduced many people to D.C. And will continue to do so. It's a very special place. Also, that things are spread out, and no large chains are allowed on the peninsula. I love that you support local business owners.
1086 I really hope that the virus doesn't get too bad this fall so I can enjoy my trip. Any precautions 8/18/2020 11:58 AM that businesses can take are greatly appreciated.
1087 If I could move to Door County, I would in a heartbeat. 8/18/2020 11:58 AM

1089 We were pleased with adherence to Covid protocols by both shop/restaurant employees and 8/18/2020 11:57 AM guests.

1100 Looking forward to a short vacation in door county. 8/18/2020 11:50 AM
1101 We had a lot of fun very friendly atmosphere from the county 8/18/2020 11:49 AM
1102 Glad to have a place like Door County to enjoy. 8/18/2020 11:49 AM
1103 Like it there. 8/18/2020 11:49 AM
1104 want to be safe to explore this beautiful place 8/18/2020 11:49 AM

1106 I need to see safe practices to fight the virus or I leave the establishment 8/18/2020 11:48 AM
1107 We thoroughly enjoyed our visit this past July. We stayed at the Thorp House; and we look 8/18/2020 11:48 AM forward to the same on our next trip in 2021
1108 We love Door County! 8/18/2020 11:48 AM
1109 Love Door County. I come at least 4 times a year! I felt this summer that all vacationers and 8/18/2020 11:48 AM workers were very respectful of social distancing and wearing masks. I feel that anyone traveling to Door County wants to keep everyone safe and keep Door County safe and open!
1110 We typically got to Door County at least twice a year. we canceled our Spring visit. Our Fall 8/18/2020 11:47 AM visit is still on for the time being, however we may cancel that trip also based on where we are with Covid 19. If we do that, it would be the first time in over 14 years we haven't visited. We do already have the Spring trip and Fall trip for next year scheduled.
1111 Missed the hustle and bustle of busy shops--too many were closed or out of business . Didn't 8/18/2020 11:47 AM like the sense of "fear" being instilled in people. Nothing can change the beauty of Door County so we'll continue to visit.
1112 None 8/18/2020 11:47 AM
1113 Love Door County!!! 8/18/2020 11:46 AM
1114 Please stay safe!!! We wore masks on our last trip and were appalled at all the number of 8/18/2020 11:46 AM people walking around the towns without one. Needless to say we did not stop and eat even outdoors at places where there were too many people not wearing masks or didn’t look like tables and people were 6 feet or more apart
1115 Thank you for staying open during these difficult times. We are parents of a special needs 8/18/2020 11:46 AM child and really need some place special to get away and relax from time to time.
1116 We are hoping for the best with our travels! We really want to visit and will plan to unless 8/18/2020 11:46 AM restrictions really tighten up. Thank you for this opportunity!
1117 Thank you for asking my opinions on this subject. Stay well! I look forward to returning to Door 8/18/2020 11:46 AM County.
1118 Both of us are senior women who are hoping we can leave for a visit to Door County. We both 8/18/2020 11:44 AM have a form of cancer and heart problems. This would be a wonderful place for us to revisit and relax. Life has been so difficult for everyone and we actually need something to look forward to. Spring offers new life and beauty to all and a trip to Door County will make us take a second look at life and happiness.
1119 I've been told by people that have been there during this time that they felt safe because 8/18/2020 11:44 AM proper mitigation was in place.

1126 We will come only when virus is completely under control or eliminated 8/18/2020 11:41 AM
1127 Can't wait! 8/18/2020 11:41 AM
1128 Usually get there 3 times a year. Always New Year's Eve!! 8/18/2020 11:41 AM
1129 I am currently stuck out of the country due to COVID19, otherwise I would have come this 8/18/2020 11:41 AM summer.
1130 Since Wisconsin has done a poor job of following medical and scientific recommendations for 8/18/2020 11:40 AM controlling Covid 19, I will not visit the state until after I've been vaccinated for the disease. The people of Wisconsin need to understand that when I wear MY MASK it's to protect them from my possible spread of the virus. When other people wear THEIR MASKS, it protects me. My mask protects you, your mask protects me.
1131 Love Door County, my soul feels most at peace when I'm there. 8/18/2020 11:39 AM
1132 Can't wait as it is always a thrill to return to the Door!!!! 8/18/2020 11:39 AM
1133 can't wait to get there. 8/18/2020 11:39 AM
1134 I so miss the trip to Door County so far this year and hope maybe we can come in the fall!!!! 8/18/2020 11:38 AM
1135 Have been coming for over 50 years and really miss it. 8/18/2020 11:38 AM
1136 I’ve lived in WI since I was 12 and have never visited before. I can’t wait to finally be able to 8/18/2020 11:37 AM visit and enjoy the beauty and community I’ve heard Door County has to offer.
1137 Can't wait for the vaccine. 8/18/2020 11:37 AM
1138 I put plan to return to Door County Summer of 2021 only because they didn't list fall 8/18/2020 11:36 AM Sept/Oct/Nov 2021. I would be visiting in the fall.
1139 Door County has been my "happy place" since the 1950's. I went with my Parents the last 8/18/2020 11:36 AM week in August at Haines Resort in Sand Bay, and fell in love with The Door. I will be 70 this December and hope to spend that milestone birthday in Door County!
1140 WE LOVE DOOR. HATED TO CANCEL OUR TRIP THIS YEAR. HOPEFULLY THE COVID 8/18/2020 11:36 AM ISSUE WILL BE RESOLVED AND WE WILL MAKE OUR ANNUAL TRIP.
1141 I will not travel until 2021. 8/18/2020 11:35 AM
1142 Can't wait to go back! 8/18/2020 11:35 AM
1143 We love the Door and despite the virus, we can't wait to return again and again. We visit 8/18/2020 11:35 AM anywhere from 2 - 5 times a year in all seasons as each season offers a different beauty.
1144 I wear a mask when my health requires it. I do not wear one when told by someone to wear it. I 8/18/2020 11:35 AM know what my body needs and no one is going to make health choices FOR me.
1145 one of our favorite places to unwind and relax. To start a new year. We usually come every 8/18/2020 11:35 AM year between Christmas and New Year
1146 Door county is one of my favorite places. I have lived in Wisconsin almost my whole life and 8/18/2020 11:34 AM look forward to coming back every time!

1151 My husband and I had our honeymoon in Door County 20 years ago, love coming back to visit, 8/18/2020 11:31 AM when we can!
1152 I was just there in early August. Stayed at Edgewater in Ephriam. Felt very comfortable. Wish 8/18/2020 11:31 AM more of the guest wore masks when in common areas and other businesses.
1153 Everyone should be wearing face masks in public and this should be enforced 8/18/2020 11:31 AM
1154 Door county is special- a natural beauty 8/18/2020 11:31 AM
1155 I'm originally from Ireland and have been living in the USA since 2007.I've been going to Door 8/18/2020 11:30 AM County every single year numerous times and I love the peace and tranquility!
1156 I already had two Door County getaways this year --stayed at resorts and actually enjoyed not 8/18/2020 11:30 AM having daily room service------supplies were promptly provided when needed
1157 We have be coming to Door County every year since 1972. We miss not coming this year. We 8/18/2020 11:29 AM look forward to next year when things will be safer.

1162 One of our biggest concerns, access to places, to use the restroom, or have a meal, when 8/18/2020 11:26 AM traveling anywhere.
1163 i would like to see all the entertainemnt come back to full speed i really miss all of this as long 8/18/2020 11:26 AM as we are all safe
1164 I love Door County and the people. 8/18/2020 11:26 AM

1172 I love DC! 8/18/2020 11:24 AM
1173 I planned 2 weeks....first week, 2 friends dropped out due to covid. 2nd week, brother and 8/18/2020 11:24 AM family still iffy...not me.
1174 Hope to see you before too long. 8/18/2020 11:24 AM
1175 Door County is an amazing place. Sister Bay has become even more of a hotspot and the 8/18/2020 11:24 AM amount of people is sometimes surreal. I don't mind super busy festivals, but its chaos during this time has us avoiding it due to covid-19 and choosing more hiking and outdoor activities away from the giant crowds.
1176 We usually visit 2 times a year & bring friends who haven't been here. Our friends who visited 8/18/2020 11:24 AM with us 2 years ago came back this year and camped for a month. This has happened often our friends come on their own.
1177 I've been to Door County twice since the pandemic hit, and I've noticed a huge disconnect 8/18/2020 11:24 AM between the people who come to visit on weekdays and weekends. The weekend folks have a complete disregard for social distancing and mask wearing.

1181 We will be returning to Door County after approximately 25 years. It was a much-loved 8/18/2020 11:22 AM vacation destination when we lived in Wisconsin (we now live 1200 miles away in Wilmington, NC). We are very much looking forward to our visit.
1182 We usually stay a few days. Now it is day trips for this year. Too worried that the lodging will 8/18/2020 11:22 AM not be clean enough nor the public restrooms.
1183 Just stay the way you are. Don't become "woke" or any fad. 8/18/2020 11:22 AM

1186 I would love to be right on the water for our stay. Interested in the best place for that. 8/18/2020 11:21 AM
1187 my favorite destination, originally from Texas and now live in Winona, MN. Have been 4 times 8/18/2020 11:21 AM
1188 help keep everyone healthy and safe with common sense procedures—wear masks, socially 8/18/2020 11:21 AM distance, wash hands.
1189 We have felt very comfortable coming up to Door County this summer. It is nice to see that 8/18/2020 11:21 AM most establishments, if not all that we have visited, have employees wearing face coverings.

1201 Love the boat tours : rides 8/18/2020 11:18 AM
1202 if things improve with the virus we may come in the fall, like October 2020. We will be back 8/18/2020 11:17 AM next summer 2021!
1203 I think the merchants of Door County are doing a great job. I wish the visitors would be more 8/18/2020 11:17 AM respectful. I see few vacationers wearing masks on the sidewalks of the towns. When the sidewalks are full and narrow and the customers aren't wearing masks while walking (and unable to maintain distance), I just am not interested in shopping. I'd like to do more holiday shopping in Door County this year, but it really depends on the density of unmasked people walking the narrow sidewalks.
1204 I grew up on a farm in SE Wisconsin and I love to return to the state. But most of all, I love to 8/18/2020 11:17 AM return to the Door!
1205 I was in DC in July for a day trip and I was very happy to see people wearing face coverings 8/18/2020 11:17 AM and places having social distancing. Makes me comfortable to return

1217 My fiancée and I enjoyed spending a month this summer. While shopping and restaurant visits 8/18/2020 11:12 AM were more restricted, I was very pleased with the enforcement of wearing masks and socially distancing everywhere we went. Particularly since we were spending this time with my 85 year old father! We were very careful, but felt well supported By the Door County community in staying safe!
1218 Love the Door!! 8/18/2020 11:12 AM
1219 We own a house in Door County and have seen it go from social distancing to "what? there's a 8/18/2020 11:12 AM pandemic?" Now when we go up, we have little to zero interaction with others. There just isn't consistancy. I wish it was different.
1220 None 8/18/2020 11:12 AM
1221 Day trips this year instead of longer trips and activities. The rest will have to wait until 8/18/2020 11:12 AM pandemic is better contained. But I will get back.
1222 Just one person who does not maintain strict face coverings and social distancing can cause 8/18/2020 11:11 AM problems and delay more people from getting back to Door County to enjoy the sights and activities. Do your part and we an ALL get through this coronavirus thing quicker and less painfully.
1223 See you next year. 8/18/2020 11:10 AM
1224 I will try to wear a mask if it is required, but I will not spend a day or possibly two masked up 8/18/2020 11:10 AM the entire time. That is not enjoyable or relaxing to me. That would only cause more stress. And Door County is about getting away and relaxing for me.
1225 I have visited multiple times and at no point we (my family) have felt unsafe. Its disappointing 8/18/2020 11:09 AM that many of the large festivals are cancelled (Fall Fest, Pumpkin Patch) but we understand and will still be visiting at those times we have scheduled as well as others! Looking forward to it!!! Stay safe.
1226 Disappointed we missed getting there this year. 8/18/2020 11:09 AM
1227 I love Door County and we hope to take our honeymoon in the Falls, we canceled the July 8/18/2020 11:09 AM honeymoon, but was able to come up for the day.
1228 I have traveled to Door County many times over the years, by sailboat and car. I feel lucky to 8/18/2020 11:08 AM have such a fabulous vacation spot in my own state.

1231 Growing up in Wisconsin, Door County was a special place, even more so after getting 8/18/2020 11:07 AM married. After visiting all 50 states, it is still my favorite place to visit.
1232 Built a vacation home in Door County in 1973. Never miss an opportunity to return 10-12 times 8/18/2020 11:07 AM a year.

1239 Come from Green Bay and love it up there. So pretty and the Sister Bay Inn is beautiful and 8/18/2020 11:06 AM has everything you need. Beautiful pool and property. Love the beach. Did miss the music this year. Always enjoyed music in the park and bars cancelled their scheduled bands. All in all had a great time and beautiful weather. So relaxing. Thank you.

1258 The last several years I have visited DC on average 8-12 times throughout the year. It feels 8/18/2020 11:02 AM weird to not have been there in almost a year, due to both COVID and family health issues.
1259 Love Door County & can't wait to return!! 8/18/2020 11:02 AM
1260 I always look forward to spending time in door county every summer and fall 8/18/2020 11:01 AM

1265 Love Door County area and all it has for outdoor adventures! 8/18/2020 11:00 AM
1266 We have been coming to Door County for 32 years 8/18/2020 10:59 AM
1267 My hope, like so many others, is that we can all do the work to get this period behind us and 8/18/2020 10:59 AM return to the things that may life worthwhile.
1268 I love Door County and unfortunately due to the situation this year, we haven't visited. 8/18/2020 10:58 AM
1269 Our whole family felt very safe in DC this summer. We ate out twice, once to a fish boil, and 8/18/2020 10:58 AM did take out once as well as going to a grocery store. We took our granddaughter to The Farm. We felt very safe every where we went in Door County. We were happy to see that every place we went to was taking precautions. We had a wonderful time and can’t wait next summer!
1270 I felt very safe during my most recent trip in early August 8/18/2020 10:57 AM
1271 Door County has been a destination for us since 1982 and I am hoping we will feel comfortable 8/18/2020 10:57 AM while there in October.
1272 When I visit my focus is on the beauty of the Door and exploring it. Restaurants not so much 8/18/2020 10:57 AM but do need to eat sooo more extended ordering hours for pick up would help.
1273 When we were in Door County 3 weeks ago, the restaurants and resort were great about face 8/18/2020 10:57 AM masks - but the crowds outside were terrible! 95% of people did not wear masks. it did not feel safe to us.
1274 None 8/18/2020 10:56 AM
1275 Have loved Door County for years don’t change it! 8/18/2020 10:56 AM
1276 Look forward to cherry-picking & cherry pie! 8/18/2020 10:56 AM
1277 None. 8/18/2020 10:56 AM
1278 I'm beyond bummed not to be there this Aug. It's just too far to come from the east coast. 8/18/2020 10:56 AM
1279 Glad Door County is open for business. So important for all the small businesses to have a 8/18/2020 10:55 AM revenue stream, during this time.
1280 We love Door County. 20 trips in the last 16 years 8/18/2020 10:55 AM
1281 I look forward to feeling at home, even though it isn't 8/18/2020 10:55 AM
1282 love Door County and miss the shopping and restaurants, but plenty of activities that avoid 8/18/2020 10:54 AM crowds.
1283 So excited to visit again!! 8/18/2020 10:54 AM
1284 most beautiful place in US TO VISIT 8/18/2020 10:54 AM
1285 We do plan to visit Door County in the future; just not until coronavirus is contained. 8/18/2020 10:54 AM
1286 As popular as Door County is, in many ways it is still undiscovered 8/18/2020 10:54 AM
1287 na 8/18/2020 10:54 AM
1288 Thank you for the emails! May 2021 be a better year for traveling. Husband and I love to 8/18/2020 10:53 AM travel.

1292 not willing to wear a mask all the time which is why we are postponing until next year when 8/18/2020 10:53 AM hopefully we won't have to.
1293 Love Door County for what it is, please don’t change too much! 8/18/2020 10:52 AM
1294 I think Door did an excellent job in having everyone wear masks. If a person didn’t have a 8/18/2020 10:52 AM mask on, the employer came up to that person and said you need a mask. Saw this happen a few times. But every place you needed a mask and had hand sanitizer. You did a great job!
1295 We have been visiting Door County for over 30 years. We especially enjoy the quiet season. 8/18/2020 10:52 AM Ephraim, Sister Bay and the Ridges are some of our favorites, although we tend to tour throughout the county.
1296 Will plan a trip as soon as my daughter can join us 8/18/2020 10:51 AM
1297 I hoped to plan a trip to Door County in fall, and am still considering it! I just don't have any 8/18/2020 10:51 AM actual plans in place yet.
1298 Can't wait to come! 8/18/2020 10:51 AM
1299 If the coronavirus is still as active as it is right now I'm sure we would postpone our trip until it 8/18/2020 10:50 AM is under control. We are senior citizens with conditions that make us more vulnerable.
1300 Love door county 8/18/2020 10:50 AM
1301 Can't wait to get back up there, right now I'm recuperating from knee replacement and have my 8/18/2020 10:50 AM eye on the prize
1302 Best wishes 8/18/2020 10:50 AM
1303 Door County entertains itself just by being there; no doubt, it is a very unique area of our 8/18/2020 10:50 AM country and one area that should never be missed in a lifetime.
1304 So beautiful to see Door county in any season! A little pricy but is fun and relaxing. 8/18/2020 10:49 AM
1305 We appreciate all of the people who continue to keep their shops and restaurants open during 8/18/2020 10:49 AM this difficult time and we hope to support them as much as possible.
1306 Can’t come due to a 14 day quarantine upon my return if I do. 8/18/2020 10:48 AM
1307 8/18/2020 10:48 AM
1308 Unfortunately it won’t be as many favorite spots or eating out as usual but still want to support 8/18/2020 10:48 AM my favorites during these difficult times
1309 LOVE DOOR COUNTY - COME APPROXIMATELY 3 TIMES A YEAR 8/18/2020 10:48 AM
1310 We have been visiting Door Co since 1980, we love it! 8/18/2020 10:48 AM
1311 My Husband and I were in Door County in July. The businesses did a great job at making us 8/18/2020 10:48 AM feel safe.
1312 I would be ok wearing a face mask into a store, but will not wear one outside and will never 8/18/2020 10:48 AM have it on when taking photos!
1313 Stay safe everyone. We can get through this. God has us and will lead us to a safer world 8/18/2020 10:47 AM
1314 We love how many businesses follow the guidelines. Thank you! 8/18/2020 10:47 AM
1315 Door county is my go to for a mental reset. We love visiting! 8/18/2020 10:47 AM
1316 I miss Door County 8/18/2020 10:47 AM
1317 We are here right now, and have been impressed with what everybody is doing to try to keep 8/18/2020 10:47 AM the guests safe.
1318 Love Door County resorts, scenery and restaurants! Turned off by what happened with 8/18/2020 10:46 AM Wisconsin's Supreme Court decision stricking down your governor's stay-at-home order. Don't know if we will return to Door County any more after having visited half a dozen times over the last three years. Sad.

1320 Always look forward to our trip to your area and the stress behind 8/18/2020 10:46 AM
1321 I love Door County. We had a cruise that was cancelled and I think we will travel closer to 8/18/2020 10:46 AM home this year!
1322 N/A 8/18/2020 10:46 AM
1323 We’ve been coming to DC regularly, generally 6 to8 times each year for the past 40 years. I 8/18/2020 10:45 AM love it, my husband not as much. I would love a condo, but we can’t agree on that. I think it’s getting too crowded, so we mostly come up during the week to avoid the crowds. Disappointed to seethe large hotel in Sister Bay. Starting to look like Wisconsin Dells.
1324 We had looked forward to celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary this summer in Door 8/18/2020 10:45 AM County but decided that we would continue to be "safe" in our small town Upper Peninsula.
1325 We visit "The Door" annually and we're delighted to be able to vacation this year despite the 8/18/2020 10:45 AM Covid-19.
1326 We always visit for Fire and Ice Festival which is around Valentines Day. Typically no big 8/18/2020 10:44 AM crowds during that time.
1327 Love Door County been way too long since I've been. 8/18/2020 10:44 AM
1328 Please be sure the leaves are at peak color when we come on October 1! Ha ha! 8/18/2020 10:44 AM
1329 8/18/2020 10:44 AM
1330 We missed going to Door County this summer! Our favorite spot is Ephraim, and we hope to 8/18/2020 10:44 AM visit this fall.
1331 I’m excited to be visiting Door County again and hope to make it a safe family vacation. 8/18/2020 10:43 AM
1332 We love Door County but it is a long way from St Louis so we usually stay overnight in Racine. 8/18/2020 10:43 AM
1333 Can't wait to come for another visit! 8/18/2020 10:43 AM
1334 LOVE Door County! 8/18/2020 10:43 AM
1335 I visited once this year already in July. I was a bit apprehensive. My family and I were of 8/18/2020 10:42 AM course able to find plenty of safe, outdoor activities. I was mostly pleased how businesses handled safety, finding just a handful that did not have restrictions that I felt were adequate.
1336 We camped for 5 nights (family of 5 adults) at the wagon trail campground. We were able to 8/18/2020 10:42 AM have our planned vacation while still feeling safe. The campground did an excellent job with COVID19 precautions. We did curbside pick-up at Al Johnson's and took it to Peninsula State park for a brunch picnic. We hiked, biked and fished all while feeling safe.
1337 No other comments other than we enjoy driving over to Door County and love the variety of 8/18/2020 10:42 AM shops/stores to visit.
1338 Not ready to travel yet until the vaccine arrives in first half of 2021. 8/18/2020 10:42 AM
1339 This will be my 3rd visit. 8/18/2020 10:42 AM
1340 Also make a winter trip there of 4 days 8/18/2020 10:42 AM
1341 We felt very safe in DC, we were there during July 4th and again the beginning of August and 8/18/2020 10:41 AM will return on Labor Day Weekend. Always stay at Ephraim Shore, very safe there!
1342 We are seasonals at Wagon Trail campground in Ellison Bay. Best decision we never made 8/18/2020 10:41 AM back in 1987.
1343 i miss door county and cant wait until i feel safe to come back 8/18/2020 10:41 AM

1346 I’ve heard they don’t want people up there visiting, hope I am not treated badly because of it 8/18/2020 10:40 AM
1347 From everything I read and heard, Door County did - and continues to do - everything right 8/18/2020 10:40 AM regarding keeping their residents and visitors safe during these trying times. Their efforts are more than appreciated by everyone!

1348 Door County is the best. We really enjoy visiting. Taking our kids there has been very fun 8/18/2020 10:40 AM since I used to visit often as a kid myself.
1349 I have a huge problem finding affordable places to stay. Sometimes stay in Green Bay and 8/18/2020 10:40 AM drive back and forth. Would be nice if prices were not so expensive
1350 Thanks for the survey. 8/18/2020 10:40 AM
1351 We come 1-2 times annually, and are over 60. Face masks and social distance plans are vital 8/18/2020 10:39 AM to our near term plans for visiting. And I'm guessing this will carry over to next year.
1352 Ever since my friend introduced me to Door County I have been coming back every year, 8/18/2020 10:39 AM sometimes more than once a year. Winter is great, too.
1353 Looking forward to 2021! 8/18/2020 10:39 AM

1361 Love Door County. Visit every year. 8/18/2020 10:37 AM
1362 Can't wait to visit without wearing a mask and enjoy everyone's smile again! It's been very 8/18/2020 10:37 AM depressing this way.
1363 Save the "Pot Park" Tower - DON"T tear it down!! 8/18/2020 10:37 AM
1364 We love it there! 8/18/2020 10:36 AM
1365 Thank you for decades of hospitality. So sorry that we couldn’t feel comfortable traveling 8/18/2020 10:36 AM anywhere this year.
1366 My husband and I are hoping to get here for an Anniversary trip/babymoon! Looking forward to 8/18/2020 10:36 AM our trip and hopefully nothing detours us from going!
1367 Love Door County and it is our home away from away from home, but expected all restaurants 8/18/2020 10:36 AM to be following safe precautions. Disappointed that it wasn’t mandatory considering it is a popular getaway destination.
1368 Wish more people in WI wore face coverings 8/18/2020 10:35 AM
1369 Can't wait to visit!! 8/18/2020 10:35 AM
1370 I so want to go to Door County. I have been going for 43 years. Miss it but just do not feel 8/18/2020 10:35 AM safe.
1371 Looking for pet friendly accommodations. 8/18/2020 10:35 AM
1372 Our vacation time is limited due to summer work, so not sure we would come soon under 8/18/2020 10:35 AM current life/work situations. Also, would require a rental car which is additional expense.
1373 we visited this past July and I felt very safe 8/18/2020 10:35 AM
1374 It's hard to travel with so many unknowns with COVID. 8/18/2020 10:34 AM
1375 We would love to make the trip, but are struggling due to covid-19. My husband works retail 8/18/2020 10:34 AM grocery & really needs this break. Having trouble deciding where to stay. Prefer Egg Harbor

this time. Not a resort, smaller. Any suggestions? Our last visit was 2015. We are from Peoria IL.
1376 I usually come every year, but 2020 isn't like any other year. 8/18/2020 10:34 AM
1377 Sturgeon Bay and Kauai have been our 2 destinations for the past 21 years 8/18/2020 10:34 AM
1378 Wont eat iut without social distancing and outdoor seating... workers in masks 8/18/2020 10:34 AM
1379 I was very impressed on both occasions when we visited Door Co, in late May and in July, with 8/18/2020 10:34 AM the prevalence of masks and people's acceptance of necessary protocols.
1380 Love Door County!!! 8/18/2020 10:34 AM
1381 Been going to DC for over 25 years and still loving it 8/18/2020 10:34 AM
1382 Thank you 8/18/2020 10:34 AM
1383 Wisconsin has a terrible reputation for helping spread Covid through crowded bars. Please 8/18/2020 10:33 AM don’t be part of that recklessness. We’re definitely planning to go to Door County again when it feels safe. Right now Wisconsin doesn’t feel safe.
1384 I love it out there! Sunsets are amazing! 8/18/2020 10:33 AM
1385 Leading questions in this survey. You are assuming a lot with the "keeping safe" aspect of 8/18/2020 10:33 AM masks, which are not all created equal or shown to be effective.
1386 We'll be back in the Fall! 8/18/2020 10:33 AM
1387 I would love to win!! 8/18/2020 10:32 AM
1388 We did do a day trip in June and were shocked on how many people were allowed in stores, 8/18/2020 10:32 AM etc. This was before the mask mandate. Very few wore them, which made us decide to limit our time here. We normally spend a night or two, but did not. We will take a day trip next month. Hopefully, with the mandate, people take it more seriously...including the businesses. I also watch the numbers for your County to determine if we would even do a day trip.
1389 I’m looking forward to my trip! 8/18/2020 10:32 AM
1390 Love coming to Door County. Have visited for many years! 8/18/2020 10:32 AM

We felt completely safe while we were there. We appreciated the requirement of everyone wearing masks while inside stores, etc. That made us more comfortable on our trip.

1405 Was up there a month ago. Wonderful time, but some of my family was hesitant to eat indoors. 8/18/2020 10:29 AM The weather was acceptable enough to eat outside, but that not might be applicable in the fall.
1406 I'm looking forward to our first visit there. It was our honeymoon destination before covid. 8/18/2020 10:29 AM

1409 We have been coming to Door County yearly for over 25 years. The procedures I see in place 8/18/2020 10:29 AM now are extremely well thought out. I have no negative comments. The only thing I wish visitors would remember is to social distance.

1416 If masks are mandatory. I will travel elsewhere 8/18/2020 10:28 AM
1417 I went last year with close friends and we had so much fun traveling and stopping at many 8/18/2020 10:27 AM shops, restaurants and wineries up and down the coasts of Door County. It was a great vacation and we still talk about it!
1418 Thank you for the survey it ensures that Door County I know will be a wonderful experience for 8/18/2020 10:27 AM my family!
1419 We recently observed variations on rules depending on the establishment. At the Landmark we 8/18/2020 10:27 AM can control our exposure better than at a B&B or hotel.
1420 Travel to a destination that attracts people from around the region/ country is too risky in 2020, 8/18/2020 10:27 AM in my opinion
1421 We love Door County hoping to come back this thanksgiving. 8/18/2020 10:27 AM
1422 Couldn't visit the State Parks.. No one day pass available.. Very dissapointed 8/18/2020 10:27 AM

1428 I love Door County. Always have since I was 11. I'm now 40. 8/18/2020 10:26 AM
1429 Challenging times for everyone but working together to keep everyone safe is important. It's 8/18/2020 10:25 AM been tough on small businesses but I try to visit/financially support those who take the pandemic seriously.
1430 I can’t wait to come back! We spent our honeymoon in Door County 18 years ago and we can’t 8/18/2020 10:25 AM wait to visit again! We have since moved to Minnesota and have 2 childrenso the trip requires more planning ahead of time!
1431 Wish I could have made it this year, but just couldn’t make it happen. Moved Mom into 8/18/2020 10:25 AM assisted living and they are in lockdown mode. She was my travel buddy.
1432 I missed my music camp at Bjorklunden due to Covid 8/18/2020 10:25 AM
1433 On my visits to Door County this summer I’ve been happy to see businesses requiring masks. 8/18/2020 10:25 AM I’m disappointed that while walking to shops people are not and are packed in lines or in restaurants.

1434 Love Door County 8/18/2020 10:24 AM
1435 The hotels and restaurants are doing what they can. I don't have the answers. You can't force 8/18/2020 10:24 AM people to be intelligent.
1436 We've convinced our neighbors to visit Egg Harbor after Labor Day. They are first time visitors 8/18/2020 10:23 AM to DC!
1437 Can not wait to come back 8/18/2020 10:23 AM
1438 I wish more visitors had been wearing masks 8/18/2020 10:23 AM
1439 Door county rock 8/18/2020 10:23 AM
1440 We have visited literally dozens and dozens of times. Hope to feel safe returning for longer 8/18/2020 10:23 AM visits, weeks and weekends.
1441 Door County is a peace of paradise! 8/18/2020 10:23 AM
1442 Love Door County! 8/18/2020 10:23 AM
1443 Just can't wait!! 8/18/2020 10:22 AM
1444 We used to stay a few nights but the cost of rooms and food have skyrocketed. So now we 8/18/2020 10:22 AM just come for a day and pack a picnic lunch.
1445 Door County is one of my favorite spots. Beautiful! 8/18/2020 10:22 AM
1446 We always enjoy our visits to “the door” 8/18/2020 10:21 AM

1449 Love Wisconsin and Door County, just not sure of access to health care. 8/18/2020 10:21 AM
1450 Please have outdoor events: plays, art fairs, classes... anything please! 8/18/2020 10:20 AM
1451 Sorry that the Virus has been so hard on your area. Hopefully things will get better soon. It’s 8/18/2020 10:20 AM such a wonderful place to visit and enjoy life.
1452 I was apprehensive about visiting. I know a lot of people feel their rights are being assaulted 8/18/2020 10:20 AM when asked to wear a mask and practice distancing. I was relieved that shops and restaurants were implementing both policies.
1453 Thank you for asking...this is super important! 8/18/2020 10:20 AM
1454 :) 8/18/2020 10:20 AM
1455 The facemask policies really need to be relaxed. Give people options. I can tell you that those 8/18/2020 10:18 AM with stringent policies are places I will not frequent. Take cues from The Door County Trolley - masks are up to the parents to decide for themselves and their children. Should not be mandatory anywhere.

1457 Thank you for checking in with our wants and needs. Visualizing a positive return to business 8/18/2020 10:17 AM for you all! We love Door County!
1458 I just love Door County for its beauty and special shops. 8/18/2020 10:17 AM
1459 I love shopping but be more polite and curtious. I don't understand why some can be so rude, 8/18/2020 10:17 AM even the owner's. I've been coming up my whole life and this is getting so bad and embarrassing to my guest's. I know exactly what they're going through and expect delays etc in service & never complain and tip extra. But places I love makes it really hard to go back to.
1460 Everyone needs to wear masks if we are going to get back to "normal". Be respectful and kind. 8/18/2020 10:17 AM It's our civic responsibility.
1461 I’m looking forward to seeing Door county 8/18/2020 10:17 AM
1462 I am still so sad about not being able to visit this summer. I desperately hope that by next 8/18/2020 10:17 AM summer it will be safe to get out and about.

1463 I stayed for one week in 2020 and have already planned to stay for two weeks in 2021. I'm 8/18/2020 10:17 AM hoping to retire to Door County - it feels like home to me.
1464 I enjoy my yearly visits to Door County and am very sorry that Covid concerns caused me to 8/18/2020 10:17 AM cancel this year. I am looking forward to visiting in 2021.
1465 We sure miss r spring and fall trip this year. We have many favorite things to see and do. Can’t 8/18/2020 10:17 AM wait till it’s safe!!!!
1466 Door County continues to be a very special place, a diamond in the rough, a great escape, my 8/18/2020 10:17 AM second home❣
1467 Loved our previous 2 visits 8/18/2020 10:17 AM
1468 Door County is beautiful we fell in love in the summer and are coming back in the fall - we can't 8/18/2020 10:17 AM wait.
1469 We love going to Door County and we weren't sure if we should go this year but are really glad 8/18/2020 10:16 AM we went in June when things were in better shape. We usually go somewhere in August as well but for right now are holding off on going anywhere until things improve.
1470 I hope all of the Door County residents stay safe through this tough time. It's a challenge in all 8/18/2020 10:16 AM tourist areas. Stay healthy!
1471 Looking forward to the visit! 8/18/2020 10:16 AM
1472 I miss Door County. 8/18/2020 10:16 AM

1477 We fell in love with Door County after our honeymoon in 2010. Planned on coming back for our 8/18/2020 10:15 AM anniversary, but we can’t get the time off of work and covid state restrictions. Plan on coming back in 2021.
1478 Its tuff to shop in Door County unless they are willinging to limit number of people .... and let 8/18/2020 10:15 AM you know that Sad that more outdoor expereinces with art, music and culture were canceled this year...
1479 seeing a lot of people on the street with no masks is a turnoff 8/18/2020 10:15 AM
1480 Hope to come up next fall 8/18/2020 10:15 AM
1481 We had plans to visit in September. We made reservations in May and have been looking 8/18/2020 10:14 AM forward to it all summer. Unfortunately, lately people have been taking this less and less seriously. We do not live in Wisconsin and it seems that people in Wisconsin from what we’ve seen on news, online and articles have been not taking it even more seriously. It took multiple votes for mandidate if masks. We’ve heard that people aren’t taking it seriously in door county itself and are not taking any chances. People went in a restaurant and walked out because not a soul seemed to realize that we are in a health crisis. I am so sad because we were going on my birthday and love going each year. (Sometimes even more) but we do not want to get there and be afraid to leave our hotel. One suggestion is don’t let people who “believe it’s their US right to do what they want and it’s their choice” dictate over health. Health matters and I know personally at least a handful of people who have canceled going there because of the rules or lack there of there. If you are from a state that has mask mandate you don’t want to go to another who doesn’t. If you are taking it seriously, we want to go where it is taken seriously. Who would of thought it was going to be this bad in September. In May we hoped the numbers were at least in the downward trend. We want to go out, we want to take a trip to door county and honestly it seemed like the best place for the time. BUT Wisconsin is on the list of mandates for our state- which clearly means some people aren’t taking this seriously. Yes you finally have a mask situation, but from what I hear it’s relaxed. And honestly we are just afraid to go. I SO look forward to going there though! We want to go the first time we can. Spring will be the next though because winter most restaurants and stores aren’t open. I hope in spring this is all over and we can make it there because I do love door county so much.

1491 We love Door County! 8/18/2020 10:13 AM
1492 We are a 3rd generation family visiting Door Co. My husband, daughter & dogs have come up 8/18/2020 10:13 AM at least once for the past 12 years & I did for 30 years prior. We came up in early June, as planned, because we felt safe & were okay with not doing everything we like to do. We just wanted to be back in Door Co.
1493 We love this place. A little bit of heaven.❤ 8/18/2020 10:12 AM

1509 We enjoyed our trip this summer. We did find it difficult to find restaurants that were open. The 8/18/2020 10:11 AM many different changing schedules for them were confusing. Websites need to be updated.
1510 Sick of the "rules' 8/18/2020 10:11 AM

1512 We cancelled our trip in August because Wisconsin Covid numbers were rising and it appeared 8/18/2020 10:11 AM that people were not wearing masks. We hope that people in Door County are more realistic about the use of masks now.

1527 Door county is my happy place! I have been going every year since I was 3 months old. We 8/18/2020 10:08 AM have celebrated weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, etc up there over the years!
1528 We just came home from a long weekend and couldn’t be happier with the cleaning & safety 8/18/2020 10:08 AM measures of our hotel , shops and restaurants we visited
1529 I have noticed that some of the restaurants are not sticking to the 6ft. apart table suggestions. 8/18/2020 10:08 AM

1538 I love door county but the lodging prices have sky rocketed this year and that is why we will 8/18/2020 10:07 AM not go soon, hoping to make it for fall if prices are reasonable and we can feel safe
1539 hope we can travel safely soon 8/18/2020 10:07 AM
1540 If I could't make this trip, I would have to beat something. I need this!! 8/18/2020 10:06 AM

1547 our trip was canceled in April and we were able to reschedule in September. I know it is the 8/18/2020 10:06 AM market, but it is unfortunate that we can't do plans the way we wanted because of the cost difference between April and September.
1548 See you soon!!!! 8/18/2020 10:05 AM
1549 Allow Camp Zion in Ellison Bay to build the next phase of their development - for the sake of 8/18/2020 10:05 AM the many children that have been blessed there & for years to come!
1550 I always feel safe going to door county. 8/18/2020 10:05 AM
1551 I want to return to Door County, but due to lack of rules in Wisconsin for dealing with Covid I 8/18/2020 10:05 AM will hold off until I feel safe.
1552 I would add a thought. I know bleach is the recommended cleaning product. There are people 8/18/2020 10:05 AM like me allergic to it. I carry epipens for that reason.
1553 Door County is my happy place! 8/18/2020 10:05 AM
1554 The trip and stay is very relaxing, looking forward to it 8/18/2020 10:04 AM
1555 Our daughter traveled to Door County for her bachelorette weekend with friends. Her 8/18/2020 10:04 AM experience worries us -- very few people wearing masks, seating at our favorite restaurants as usual. This does not make us comfortable but we will modify our activities accordingly.
1556 My first trip after losing my husband, we loved visiting Door County 8/18/2020 10:04 AM
1557 It my favorite place to go 8/18/2020 10:04 AM

1566 Looking forward to seeing some fall colors. Door County has a special feeling to it and love 8/18/2020 10:02 AM going.
1567 a few business's were very rude about masks when we were there in August. 8/18/2020 10:02 AM
1568 Love going to Door County 8/18/2020 10:02 AM
1569 If you actively enforce mask wearing and social distancing you will prevent spread of Covid-19. 8/18/2020 10:02 AM People would then feel safe to come to Door Co with minimal fear of infection. Businesses could then be open!!! No tourist wants to vacation where they will become ill.
1570 overall travel to Door County has been relatively safe and I'm anticipating that it will only get 8/18/2020 10:02 AM better by 2021 when I will be staying consecutive days instead of making day trips.
1571 Enjoy camping but have not this year due to bathrooms closed or showers unavailable. 8/18/2020 10:02 AM

1600 I have continued to camp this summer. I feel it allows us much needed escapes with minimal 8/18/2020 9:58 AM interaction. Great way to get some much needed escape for mental health while being safe. I think its smart to be safe but not scared. Many diseases exist but I choose to not live in fear.

1607 Love Door County! 8/18/2020 9:57 AM
1608 I’ve been vacationing in Door County for 30+ years and I never get tired of it. Always 8/18/2020 9:57 AM something to do or try. Everyone please stay safe and healthy! See you next month.
1609 Again, I llhave been to Door County a few times, and I really want to return and very possibly 8/18/2020 9:57 AM meet another couple so we can share the peninsula together to make memories!
1610 Such calming just watching the water 8/18/2020 9:57 AM
1611 Can't wait to visit Sept 11-13. Wineries, Creameries, Breweries, State Parks, Fish Bowl, 8/18/2020 9:57 AM Smoked Fish Markets, Washington Island.
1612 love the door 8/18/2020 9:57 AM
1613 None at this time 8/18/2020 9:57 AM
1614 We do not plan to travel until a proven vaccine is available. 8/18/2020 9:56 AM
1615 I have only been to door county twice but my experience when i went there made me wanting 8/18/2020 9:56 AM more. I can say i found my happy place.
1616 I just returned from a 2 day visit to Fish Creek 8/18/2020 9:56 AM
1617 My favorite time is during Cherry season 8/18/2020 9:56 AM
1618 Other years we stayed a week at a cottage on Bay Shore Dr but the pandemic changed our 8/18/2020 9:56 AM plans this year. We usually came up several times during the season but not this year
1619 Have come to Door approx 30 years straight, except 2 years when I had surgery. Live Door, 8/18/2020 9:56 AM even with my 2 handicapped daughters.
1620 We love visiting door county. Since my divorce I have made it a traditional trip with my kids 8/18/2020 9:56 AM and we love every moment up by you.
1621 The first time I have ever been to Door County was this year. I was so in awe of it's beauty and 8/18/2020 9:56 AM everything it has to offer. It was a surprise getaway from my boyfriend. I would love for this to be a surprise to him.
1622 When restaurants I love refused to require employees to wear face masks (prior to them 8/18/2020 9:56 AM changed their position), it made me seriously consider what we were doing in Door County. I haven't missed a summer there in 35 years, but I wondered if we would even go. Face masks are a minor inconvenience to know that we can still visit our favorite place on earth.
1623 we love Door County and make a trip there at least once or twice a year 8/18/2020 9:56 AM
1624 Someone should offer picnic table & chair rentals so people can get takeout from their favorite 8/18/2020 9:56 AM spots & set up picnic tables near the lake to eat.

1626 We love Door County 8/18/2020 9:56 AM
1627 I love the people in door county 8/18/2020 9:56 AM
1628 visited Washington Island recently and had horrible experience at Tipping Bucket as well as at 8/18/2020 9:56 AM Bread and Water-so I do not recommend staying on Washington Island however visiting I would recommend
1629 I did not cancel my trip to DC because of COVID-19. My event on Washington Island was 8/18/2020 9:55 AM canceled and I was informed that the hotel I planned to stay at would not be opening. That is why I canceled my trip for this September from Detroit, MI to Washington Island, WI.
1630 Nothing to add. 8/18/2020 9:55 AM
1631 We have a summer home on Washington Island; that is where we stay when we are in Door 8/18/2020 9:55 AM County, but we often have guests visit us and they stay in lodgings and, like us, patronize restaurants in Door County. My suggestions are things I would like to see for their protection as well as mine.
1632 Love dc and looking forward to coming back 8/18/2020 9:55 AM

1633 Any business or establishment that has a dismissive position regarding mask wearing will 8/18/2020 9:55 AM never get our business, now or post-pandemic. Signs such as those that basically say “if you have a medical condition it’s ok to not wear a mask” communicate that masks are optional. In addition, we will not visit those communities where law enforcement leaders have publicly stated that they are hands-off regarding mask noncompliance. It tells us that the community itself does not take public health measures seriously.
1634 Looking forward to our first visit this fall!! 8/18/2020 9:55 AM
1635 Have been coming to Door County for over 30 years and were very disappointed to have to 8/18/2020 9:55 AM cancel this year.
1636 We visited Door County just after 4th of July and were happy to see the amount of businesses 8/18/2020 9:55 AM requiring masks to enter well before the state mandate.
1637 We were originally planning to go to Boston/Cape Code but decided it would not be good to fly 8/18/2020 9:55 AM at this time. We changed our plans to go to Door County and we would absolutely love to win the $250 to help with our trip costs. Thanks!
1638 Can’t wait! 8/18/2020 9:55 AM
1639 Anxious to return ASAP 8/18/2020 9:54 AM
1640 We love the many seasons of door county and we love the variety of local products. 8/18/2020 9:54 AM

1642 Hopefully we will see you soon! 8/18/2020 9:54 AM

1644 I love Door Coounty with all of the wonderful things to do. 8/18/2020 9:54 AM
1645 First time to Door County was last August. We went back about a month ago and will be 8/18/2020 9:54 AM driving back for September 12. Looking forward to enjoying our time.
1646 We are taking our annual trip to Washington Island and are so thankful that we did not have to 8/18/2020 9:54 AM cancel. We know it will be a different trip, but we don’t go for the shopping or commercial fun… We go to enjoy the nature at the island has to offer. We’ll see what’s open right once we get there and decide what feels safe to visit and what we will pass on this year.
1647 I hope and pray all of the businesses survive this pandemic! Enforce the mask wearing- live by 8/18/2020 9:54 AM the motto- better safe than sorry!
1648 Our son will be coming with us as well, he is so looking forward to the trip. He hasn't had the 8/18/2020 9:54 AM opportunity to visit DC since he was a kid in high school.
1649 As a family, we usually travel to Door County 2-3 times a year. We canceled all of our plans for 8/18/2020 9:54 AM 2020. We look forward to feeling comfortable enough to travel again.
1650 We cancelled 3 booked trips to DC in 2020 due to Covid19. We miss everything 8/18/2020 9:54 AM
1651 We love Door County and cant wait to be there! 8/18/2020 9:53 AM
1652 Our last visit in July was very pleasant and safe. We appreciated the safety protocol all 8/18/2020 9:53 AM establishments took in keeping our stay safe!
1653 We will be returning!! With a bundle of caution!! 8/18/2020 9:53 AM
1654 We are traveling with elderly parents so we will only be eating and visiting places in Door 8/18/2020 9:53 AM County that are set up for Social Distancing and Wearing Face Masks
1655 Not looking forward to visiting WI soon, due to poor mask use. 8/18/2020 9:53 AM
1656 EXCITED FOR MY TRIP 8/18/2020 9:53 AM
1657 Please follow the science so we can stop the spread of COVID! 8/18/2020 9:53 AM
1658 Love DC!❤❤ 8/18/2020 9:52 AM
1659 I really loved my trip there. 8/18/2020 9:52 AM
1660 I had a friend die of a heart attack last month. But when they did the autopsy they found he 8/18/2020 9:52 AM
Destination Door County Travel Sentiment Survey Data collected August 18-23, 2020 59 / 79 Travel Sentiment Visitor Survey – August 2020 SurveyMonkey
was positive for COVID 19. We all know he died of the heart attack. But they listed on Mike’s autopsy report he died of Covid-19. Give me a break.
1661 We just recently spent a week up in Door County. We rented a house in Ephraim and only ate 8/18/2020 9:52 AM outside at restaurants, but overall felt comfortable and it was a great get away!
1662 We try to come to Door County once every season. We already have made reservations for fall 8/18/2020 9:52 AM and winter.
1663 Hope I win! 8/18/2020 9:52 AM
1664 Looking forward to Labor Day weekend! 8/18/2020 9:52 AM
1665 I was planning to make a trip again this year to Door County. I inquired from various people on 8/18/2020 9:51 AM Facebook, about how strict businesses were being with facemasks. The way it sounds, masks are rampant in Door County. Since I will not wear a mask anywhere — Door County has lost my business. Sad — Door County was always a place that I would tell my out-of-state friends that they had to be sure to visit. That it’s a great depiction of our beautiful state. But I would be embarrassed to have people go there with this atmosphere this year.
1666 Love DC! 8/18/2020 9:51 AM
1667 One of my most favorite places to visit! 8/18/2020 9:51 AM
1668 When I visited in June I appreciated all things being done to help residents and visitors feel 8/18/2020 9:51 AM safe. Thank you for the efforts.
1669 Love for many years 8/18/2020 9:51 AM
1670 Love Door County, it's one of my favorite places and will always be a place I want to return to 8/18/2020 9:51 AM

1684 Love door county in the fall. 8/18/2020 9:50 AM
1685 I was in Door County the end of May and end of June this year. Spent 4 nights total this year. 8/18/2020 9:50 AM (Egg Harbor & Sturgeon Bay) Felt very safe.
1686 This pandemic has been so hard on restaurants and businesses that rely on tourists. I'm 8/18/2020 9:49 AM hoping that travel will be promoted in the winter (if safe), to hopefully funnel some customers to businesses affected by the pandemic, during a time when it is typically quieter in door county (if those businesses choose to remain open during the winter).
1687 Thank you. Door County is a beautiful reacreation and vacation place to visit! 8/18/2020 9:49 AM
1688 I go to door county at least once a year and love it there 8/18/2020 9:49 AM

1695 When I was up in July I felt very safe going in stores where masks were enforced. We only ate 8/18/2020 9:49 AM at restaurants with outdoor seating, or take out. Had great time... as usual.
1696 Can't wait to come to Door County 8/18/2020 9:49 AM
1697 Looking forward to our visit this fall - we love Door County and want to see the businesses 8/18/2020 9:49 AM remain open for now and for brighter days ahead.
1698 I love Door County (even though I’ve only been there once) I’m very excited for our trip this 8/18/2020 9:48 AM weekend!
1699 Have friends who live there and look forward to visiting in future. Or exchanging timeshare to 8/18/2020 9:48 AM stay at the rushes where my brother goes in august yearly as he did again this year. I usually visit lake geneva a few times a year, last visit Jan/feb 2020 for Winterfest. No travel there planned indefinitely. Disppointed petition to require masks there not passed by city council. I am a nanny working in a restricted bubble and also a senior so being ultra cautious. Mask wearing is essential s is a new president Joe Biden to get us back on track. Our lives and livelihoods depend on it. Stay safe. Thank you. 1700 I look forward to this trip each September. I hope DCC and Peninsula century rides are back 8/18/2020 9:48 AM next year.
1701 Please tell ALL businesses to post HOURS and COVID restrictions on their website, social 8/18/2020 9:48 AM media, and prominent signage at their business. There is NOTHING more frustrating than wanting to visit a business and having no idea what their COVID practices are (or finding out they have none in place), having no idea their hours, or to arrive at a business to learn their posted hours are not what they are keeping, or that they have different policies than are posted. please also convey to ALL businesses that posting seasonal closures on websites and social media is very important, particularly for those visiting in non-peak seasons. If you're only open on weekends POST IT, if you are closed during February and March POST IT. My family has had more frustration over businesses not clearly posting when they are open than we care to count. It's not hard to let customers know when you'll be open - and if it is "by chance or by appointment" PUT THAT ON YOUR WEBSITE OR SOCIAL MEDIA. It costs NOTHING to update social media and websites with this information - and it could be the difference between having a customer NEVER visit your store because they are so frustrated by your inability to post your hours (and yes, this is something we've experienced multiple times from multiple businesses over multiple years, and it is the MOST FRUSTRATING thing about visiting Door County).
1702 I love Door county for camping and good eats 8/18/2020 9:48 AM
1703 Bonnie at the Shoreline has made us feel as comfortable as we could be while traveling during 8/18/2020 9:48 AM these times. We're so happy to make our way up there as we have for years!
1704 DC is our favorite destination — we love♥ ♥ you! 8/18/2020 9:48 AM

not wear a mask then.
1711 Looking forward to our next visit 8/18/2020 9:47 AM
1712 It would be great to have a document or article listing DC restaurants that are open midweek in 8/18/2020 9:47 AM the fall and that offer outdoor seating.
1713 Love Door County. 8/18/2020 9:47 AM
1714 We love Door County, but will likely spend most of our time at the house we are renting. Six of 8/18/2020 9:46 AM the 7 of us have health or age issues that make us more concerned about getting sick.
1715 Door County is Great. Nice & Relaxing, Friendly, so much to do. Thank You. 8/18/2020 9:46 AM
1716 I first visited Door County two years ago and absolutely loved it! I don't know what took me so 8/18/2020 9:46 AM long. It is now an annual and next year I am hoping to go in the summer. I recommend it to all my friends and family
1717 All our trips to door county have always been great. For us, it's all about the scenic drive or 8/18/2020 9:46 AM Cycle Ride and enjoying getting away for a few days.
1718 Can’t wait to be there! Stay safe everyone 8/18/2020 9:46 AM
1719 I am still debating between visiting Door County or Lake Elkhart at the end of October. We are 8/18/2020 9:46 AM celebrating our 15th wedding anniversary.
1720 Special place and always look forward to returing 8/18/2020 9:46 AM
1721 While we are willing to wear face masks inside businesses, if it becomes expected to wear 8/18/2020 9:46 AM them while outside, we will cancel our trip.
1722 Thank you for asking. Thank you all for offering such a wonderful get away for us. Can’t wait to 8/18/2020 9:46 AM be there!
1723 I have been wanting to visit for a long time. I finally convinced my husband to come with me. 8/18/2020 9:46 AM Then Covid-19 happened. I am hoping his health makes through next year.
1724 I’ve been traveling to DC for over 26 years...we have an annual summer trip with over 70 8/18/2020 9:46 AM people (3 generations) and occasional fall trips. We love it and even we’re married there 6 years ago. Now we are expecting our first child in November and are so excited to be able to share our favorite place with her ♥
1725 We’ve visited the Door three times this summer and are impressed with the hard work that’s 8/18/2020 9:46 AM being done to make us feel safe!
1726 Love alpine village. my husband has never been there. I have spent much time there with the 8/18/2020 9:46 AM children, in the '80's and 90's. look forward to returning.

1728 I miss not going to Door County this fall. It’s because of COVID 19 that we canceled our 8/18/2020 9:45 AM reservations. Very sad about that.
1729 Visited in 2019, loved the visit. Beautiful scenery. 8/18/2020 9:45 AM
1730 My concern is that as you go further north in WI, generally, folks do not consider COVID-19 an 8/18/2020 9:45 AM issue. Yes, it is a generalization, but I have 2 good friends who live in the Door Co. region and they have reported this to me. Please, please, understand that travelers to your beautiful area need to be told that masks and safety is REQUIRED. Recomended does not work, sadly.
1731 Breaks my heart that my kids are going to miss Door County this year. 8/18/2020 9:45 AM
1732 I can't wait for things to open up 100% again so I can enjoy everything Door County can offer. 8/18/2020 9:45 AM

1739 Door County is such a beautiful place. Don’t change a thing! Except this year wear masks and 8/18/2020 9:44 AM social distance
1740 We were there a few years ago and loved it up there. We would like to come back and spend a 8/18/2020 9:44 AM little more time again. The food is great, we love all the little shops and of course the scenery. The scenery is beautiful. Thank you!
1741 The Covid 19 has challenged us all, especially those who are at risk. It has changed a lot of 8/18/2020 9:44 AM our plans for the year and we hope we can travel more freely soon!

1746 We watched Covid trends before deciding where to travel. Traverse City, MI was considered 8/18/2020 9:43 AM but we felt we wanted to comfortably drive in a day and still enjoy some time on arrival. Other spots we enjoy (such as Big Cedar Lodge, Gatlinburg and Chattanooga were too iffy Covid- wise, and were greatly relieved when Wisconsin mandated masks.
1747 Can’t wait for our trip! 8/18/2020 9:43 AM
1748 We were very impressed with the precautions that all of the establishments that we visited 8/18/2020 9:43 AM took and are looking forward to our next visit.

1786 I know most hotels, bars, restaurants have already implemented strict cleaning procedures, 8/18/2020 9:38 AM face masks, etc. I know they have really taken things seriously to protect themselves & their customers. I am happy to cooperate in whatever way they ask.

1789 We have three pandemic Door County trips planned---one completed this past weekend---and 8/18/2020 9:38 AM are serious;y thinking about adding a winter one for the first time. Door County gives us solace and respite during the pandemic.

1798 I hope to return when things go back to normal as I do not want to wear a mask and social 8/18/2020 9:37 AM distance everywhere....to me it is not worth me spending the money to vacation when I have to do those things

1804 Last year was a fun weekend with my daughter. Going to door county was brought up by my 8/18/2020 9:37 AM daughter? Covid draw back in tastings?
1805 My mom really wants to retire on a lake up in DC. I keep trying to convince her. Fingers 8/18/2020 9:36 AM crossed!
1806 We visited Washington island too for the first time and we LOVED it! We decided to stay an 8/18/2020 9:36 AM additional week (even though it wasn’t in our vacation budget lol) to Be able to spend more time in sister bay and surrounding communities.

1815 Two of my sisters, my mom and I will be celebrating another one of my sister's 60th birthday 8/18/2020 9:36 AM the 2nd weekend of October. We're staying at Landmark Resort in Egg Harbor. None of us have been to Door County but it has been on my sister's bucket list for a long time! So excited! A $250 gift certificate would be a great bonus for our celebration. Going to enter the drawing right now!

1819 I live in Edina, MN and have come up to Door county since 1952. I first heard of it in a 8/18/2020 9:35 AM Magazine (the yellow one), National Geographic. We just had a baby in'66 and have been coming up from Minneapolis to Door county for many years. It's still the best place in America.

1822 I have been coming to Door County for many years and COVID-19 did not stop me coming this 8/18/2020 9:35 AM year nor will it stop me coming next year should that be the case. Respect, common sense and kindness for people and businesses must prevail. If someone isn’t capable of this, I hope they stay home! They can’t possibly appreciate Door County! Heaven on earth!

1826 Always a comfortable place to visit. 8/18/2020 9:35 AM
1827 We miss our visits to Door Co 8/18/2020 9:35 AM
1828 One of the main reasons I come to Door County is to visit beloved friends who are older. If it 8/18/2020 9:35 AM isn’t safe to do so this year, I will definitely plan to come when it is.
1829 WE COME TO DOOR COUNTY EVERY YEAR. MOST TIMES TWICE . THIS YEAR ONLY 8/18/2020 9:35 AM ONCE. LOVE IT THERE
1830 Good luck. 8/18/2020 9:35 AM
1831 Although, I currently do not have plans to visit this year, I still may decide to come, just unsure 8/18/2020 9:35 AM at this point. I would look to visit mid-week rather than the weekend to minimize personal interaction.
1832 We love DC. We make 2-3 visits per year...we "love DC". 8/18/2020 9:35 AM

1835 Can’t wait to visit!!! 8/18/2020 9:34 AM

1838 Love dc. Visist every fall and can not wait!!!!! 8/18/2020 9:34 AM
1839 I very much wanted to (and still may) visit Door County with my family this summer/fall. I have 8/18/2020 9:34 AM friends who have visited and said that the area is doing a great job with Covid precautions, I'm still just a little nervous about it. I'd hate to spend the money to go up there and on a hotel, just to not feel comfortable enough to go anywhere.
1840 I love Door Co. It is beautiful. Would love to live there, 8/18/2020 9:34 AM
1841 we love Door County! We had a lovely week long trip in July and hope to go up in October too! 8/18/2020 9:34 AM
1842 I believe that masks are not the answer to COVID. I will wear a mask only when required. 8/18/2020 9:34 AM
1843 My last visit to Door County was 1979 and would love to come back. Wonderful part of the 8/18/2020 9:34 AM state to visit.
1844 I love Door County. There is so much to do and see. Great eateries 8/18/2020 9:34 AM
1845 Affordability is critical right now. We have lost substantial income due to coronavirus. 8/18/2020 9:33 AM
1846 I really missed my annual summer trip to Door County. 8/18/2020 9:33 AM

1849 I have never been to Door county but heard it's a wonderful place to visit. Unfortunately, we 8/18/2020 9:33 AM can't afford two getaways this year.
1850 Love the Door. Spirits crushed when we realized we couldn’t safely do it this season. We’ll 8/18/2020 9:33 AM spend a lot of time there next year. We hope.

1851 Can’t wait until Labor Day - my birthday in Door County!!! 8/18/2020 9:33 AM
1852 we enjoyed our visit in mid-July, in the midst of outbreaks at local places we love to visit. We 8/18/2020 9:33 AM still felt safe and continued to patron other businesses for food and beverages.
1853 We'd love to come back, but just can't with the pandemic. It's the first year in 10 years we 8/18/2020 9:33 AM haven't come to visit
1854 Not at this time 8/18/2020 9:33 AM
1855 If face masks are required everywhere, we will go elsewhere this Fall. I understand it is 8/18/2020 9:33 AM necessary in some instances, but it doesn't need to go overboard. It sucks the fun out of everything and is extremely uncomfortable for many, so I personally avoid doing anything I don't have to do that requires mask wearing. If I have to wear it and I need to do what I'm doing, I will wear it, but it's an unpleasant experience I don't associate with doing anything that is supposed to be pleasurable. The question above about will I wear a face mask, should have more than a yes or no option. If I really want to go in somewhere that requires it, I will wear it, but I will avoid doing anything that requires longtime wearing of a mask.
1856 The last I was in door county, I barely remember it because I was so young. Fall is my favorite 8/18/2020 9:33 AM time of year; beyond liking the color, it sits right in my soul. I’ve wanted to experience fall in door county for many years!
1857 Love it in Door County. We go there several times a year. A favorite of the entire family! 8/18/2020 9:32 AM
1858 We love visiting Door County & were saddened we had to cut our stay down to a day trip due 8/18/2020 9:32 AM to circumstances.
1859 Love door county! Happy to see it's popularity is continuing to grow, although not so happy that 8/18/2020 9:32 AM all the events I love are jam-packed with people. A good problem to have though!
1860 Beautiful area. We stayed with friends in Sturgeon Bay. Our five-year-old had a great time. We 8/18/2020 9:32 AM enjoyed boating, golf, and the restaurants.

1864 though we have no plans to come for an overnight stay to date, that could change if COVID 8/18/2020 9:32 AM conditions/situations change for the positive

1871 We miss you 8/18/2020 9:31 AM
1872 My typical door county activities typically are socially distant (state park, walking, sitting at a 8/18/2020 9:31 AM winery).. there has never been a more needed trip than mine coming up! Door county holds a place in my heart.
1873 It would be great to see an updated website that is continuously updated on which places are 8/18/2020 9:31 AM requiring masks, take out options at restaurants etc....
1874 Excellant testaurants 8/18/2020 9:31 AM
1875 Please stop with the masks. Look at all the studies done before this became politicized. Many 8/18/2020 9:31 AM many studies concluded that face masks did not stop the spread of any viruses and only served to provide a false sense of comfort.

1884 Just want the Covid scare to end so we can go back to a normal life and routine. 8/18/2020 9:30 AM
1885 I was in Door County in August. If we go back again in the fall, I would consider finding a room 8/18/2020 9:30 AM with cooking facilities so we could eat more meals in our room. If that means bringing some of our own kitchen supplies, that's fine. It was a bit challenging finding places to eat--particularly for dinner...in a timely manner with the reduction in tables and/or reduced hours of operation due to Covid.
1886 Love Door County! 8/18/2020 9:30 AM
1887 Visited July 18th-25th, 2020. Found the state & county parks too full & had poor restroom 8/18/2020 9:30 AM facilities. The best experience we had was picking cherries - took home 12 frozen quarts.
1888 We have been coming to Door County at least once a year for the past 40 years and we 8/18/2020 9:30 AM encourage all our friends to come there also!
1889 Love the shops but too many people. Spent my summers as a child camping at Peninsula and 8/18/2020 9:30 AM Potowatomi every weekend from may to October. It feels like home when I go back. My brother spent summers working at Peninsula

1893 I really missed coming to Door County this year. 8/18/2020 9:30 AM
1894 We made 2 summer day trips and felt safe in most places, but were not happy to see young 8/18/2020 9:30 AM people ignoring guidelines at Nicolet Beach and also at One Barrel in Egg Harbor.
1895 We absolutely love coming to Door County. We come at least once per year and enjoy it so 8/18/2020 9:29 AM much and always find new things to do/explore. This year we have finally decided to try to get some property here to enjoy anytime!
1896 Thanks 8/18/2020 9:29 AM
1897 We were there August 7-12. Many restaurants are closed Mon, Tues and Wednesday. That 8/18/2020 9:29 AM was a little inconvenient. We had a larger group and places don't take reservations sometimes. We will be back in September.
1898 When visiting in Aug 2020, I was a bit surprise to see many restaurants with limited days of 8/18/2020 9:29 AM operation... Not sure if this is COVID related or due to a lack of workers, otherwise, we had a great trip!
1899 My heart is on door co. 8/18/2020 9:29 AM
1900 Please keep up the good work with safety precautions due to COVID-19. There are a lot of 8/18/2020 9:29 AM people visiting Door County and these safety measures are critical. Thank you.
1901 It's the awkwardness of the restrictions that keep me from enjoying travel. Not sure what's 8/18/2020 9:29 AM open, uncertainty in general.
1902 I look forward to coming to Door County in the future when it feels safe again. 8/18/2020 9:29 AM

1914 Live Door County and have no worries vacationing here. Was there in May 2019 and December 8/18/2020 9:28 AM 2019. Was hading to Ireland, Maine or Canada 2020 but with COVID decided to stick with our closest vision of Maine an head back to DC.
1915 Our week there in February was to be the first of six visits this year, surpassing last year's five 8/18/2020 9:28 AM visits. We also planned on our fifth consecutive Thanksgiving there.
1916 None 8/18/2020 9:28 AM
1917 I miss the Door so much and can't wait until this abates enough so that I'm not worried about 8/18/2020 9:28 AM flying from Florida to get there! Can't wait to get back!
1918 In regards to masks, it is very difficult for me to wear one for several reasons. And I'm sure I'm 8/18/2020 9:28 AM not alone in this. I will wear one when I need to but would prefer to have the choice. It does not make me uncomfortable if I go into a business and the employees are not masked or are masked. When we visited this past spring some places employees and guests wore masks and other places they did not and that was okay. We felt safe enough and returned from our trip rested and well.
1919 I read customer reviews of various places, and when I see comments *congratulating* 8/18/2020 9:28 AM establishments for not wearing masks, I make a note not to visit that place. That goes for Door County, here in the Milwaukee area, and anywhere else.
1920 We travel from the MKE-area at least 4 times a year to visit. Sometimes renting a cottage on 8/18/2020 9:28 AM Kangaroo Lake or staying at the Beach Front Inn in Baileys Harbor. We LOVE it there. My husband and I are currently looking for a lake front property to purchase, so we can live in DC part of the year.
1921 I have two sons that use wheelchairs for mobility. I always look for handicap accessible 8/18/2020 9:28 AM places. Door County is a great place for us.
1922 I would like to visit in fall 2021 but that wasn’t an option. Thanks! 8/18/2020 9:28 AM
1923 Please pick me...I would love this to help out on our trip! I want to get out so badly, this would 8/18/2020 9:28 AM be so motivating. Life is very boring now and I NEED this!
1924 Can't wait to come back. Miss everything about Door County. My heart goes out to all the 8/18/2020 9:28 AM retailers, restaurant workers and essential workers there. Stay safe and healthy. Hope to see you soon!
1925 I love Door County! I have been going there for 32 years. We make it a tradition in our family to 8/18/2020 9:28 AM come every year.
1926 When we come, we usually go only to Piggly Wiggly and we appreciate the stringent face 8/18/2020 9:28 AM mask rule since we first came in May. We enjoy picnic lunches at some of the lesser known beaches; however, except for the Pig and a couple quick visits to either Wood or Seaquist’s markets, we have not gone anywhere else.

1938 Had a day trip mid-July, turned around and left Fish creek due to crowded streets with no face 8/18/2020 9:27 AM coverings Very satisfied with dining downtown Sturgeon Bay
1939 We moved to SC 25 years ago from Sheboygan, WI, and Door County is the place I miss 8/18/2020 9:27 AM most. We camped every summer at Peninsula; and as I child, my family cottaged at Clark Lake. I have nothing but amazing memories!!
1940 Can’t wait to come up and visit friends and eat at our favorite restaurants and spend some 8/18/2020 9:27 AM time exploring and enjoying our favorite place.
1941 All social media posts that I’ve seen from DC and my favorite locations just show photos with 8/18/2020 9:27 AM no people. Then the comments list complaints that people are not wearing masks or distancing. It feels like a bait and switch. I don’t want to come and feel uncomfortable so I have chosen not to come at all which is really disappointing.
1942 While taking the necessary precautions, it is still important to relax and enjoy the scenery 8/18/2020 9:27 AM while traveling.
1943 I've had Covid, it was stupid, and I would do it again, just to go back to not have to wear a 8/18/2020 9:27 AM mask.
1944 We love Door County and love to visit there! We've been going there over 35 years but haven't 8/18/2020 9:26 AM visited in awhile.
1945 Stay safe 8/18/2020 9:26 AM
1946 I love Door County and will be back. I grew up in Wisconsin and visit Door County one or more 8/18/2020 9:26 AM times a year when I return to see family.
1947 Enjoying the relaxing area. 8/18/2020 9:26 AM
1948 My only trip was October 2015! We loved it and want to come back. 8/18/2020 9:26 AM
1949 We just love and look forward coming up to Door county 8/18/2020 9:26 AM
1950 can't wait for October to gert here 8/18/2020 9:26 AM
1951 Excited to see the beauty Door Co has to offer! 8/18/2020 9:26 AM
1952 I had to cut short my visit this summer, but it was still a breath of fresh air to be in beautiful 8/18/2020 9:26 AM Door County.
1953 Always Curious when linens are changed in hotels. Do they change comforters or 8/18/2020 9:26 AM bedspreads/blankets between guests. I am freaked out if they aren’t and never really knew. I did get bedbugs at one of two places a few years ago and haven’t been back to either.
1954 Hoping to show my husband that we can have a great time within a few hours of home without 8/18/2020 9:26 AM having to get on a plane
1955 LOVE DC!!! 8/18/2020 9:25 AM

1964 Very excited to be returning to Door County soon. 8/18/2020 9:25 AM
1965 We come up to DC multiple times a summer. Always enjoy it. 8/18/2020 9:25 AM
1966 We normally visit 5 or more times a year but we were only able to visit before COVID and now 8/18/2020 9:25 AM we will be there next month.
1967 We have seen on news how lax the public in some areas has been about wearing masks and 8/18/2020 9:25 AM social distancing and it concerns us that employees serving us may in their off hours behave irresponsibly making them asymptomatic spreaders of the virus to guests and customers.
1968 I would love to win! We visit Door County almost every year in the fall. 8/18/2020 9:25 AM
1969 Hoping for the best for everyone during the pandemic, health and economy. 8/18/2020 9:25 AM

1972 We JUST came home from Door County 3 days ago and are already planning our next trip 8/18/2020 9:24 AM back. It is our favorite road trip destination and our happy place :)
1973 We did not make the trip last year so we are really looking forward to this year. 8/18/2020 9:24 AM
1974 Looking forward to returning. 8/18/2020 9:24 AM
1975 I've been enjoying Door Country since my father and mother took the family vacationing since 8/18/2020 9:24 AM the early 1950s. Now married with children and grandchildren, my family has made it a point to vacation in Door Country nearly every year since the early 1970s. I don't think I've missed a year in Door County since I was a boy in the 50s. We love the place and will continue to holiday in Door Country as long as we possibly can do so. Thank you very much!
1976 I just came back from a trip with my adult daughters and love it. Coming back with hubby in 8/18/2020 9:24 AM late fall.
1977 Unfortunately visiting the shops and galleries will have to wait until another time when it's 8/18/2020 9:24 AM safer...crossing my fingers for next year!
1978 We love visiting Door County! 8/18/2020 9:24 AM

1981 I truly love to visit Door County, and go at least once a year, even if it's for a day, under normal 8/18/2020 9:24 AM circumstances... however, the world is not normal right now...
1982 6th year coming to Door County from Chicago staying at the Country House Resort in Sister 8/18/2020 9:23 AM Bay. We were concerned in the early days of pandemic that we may not be able to go this year but are very happy to visit again. Bringing an adult family member with us this year to enjoy many of the sights and activities he enjoyed 20 years ago as a child.
1983 We have been in Door County in October 49 of our 50 years of marriage 8/18/2020 9:23 AM

1990 DC is such a special place. 8/18/2020 9:23 AM
1991 Usually visit 2-3 times a year. Lost my job because of Covid, so had to reschedule one trip this 8/18/2020 9:23 AM yeaff for next year. Still coming up for the Cherry Drop on NYE
1992 Would like to stay overnight but we have a small dog and not easy to get accommodations. 8/18/2020 9:23 AM
1993 Looking forward to fall visit. Staying on lake side for the first time in the 39 years we have 8/18/2020 9:23 AM visited Door County
1994 we have a new baby so I’m more cautious this year otherwise we may have considered visiting 8/18/2020 9:23 AM this fall
1995 WE MISS OUR ANNUAL TRIP TO DOOR COUNTY!! LOVE IT UP THERE. 8/18/2020 9:23 AM
1996 When I visited earlier this month, I was aghast at how many people were in many of the towns 8/18/2020 9:23 AM we drove through - No social distancing, no masks, outdoor seating WAY too close... I was so glad we weren't stopping in any of those towns.
1997 My family has been vacationing in Door County since 1924. Already been there in July and 8/18/2020 9:23 AM looking forward to another trip this fall.
1998 We love Door County. 8/18/2020 9:23 AM

2000 my wife and i have been coming to Door County every fall for about 10 years now, and staying 8/18/2020 9:23 AM about 4 nights but we are short on funds now due to being laid off but it will be our only vacation this year the only place we s till feel safe so we are coming just limiting our time to cut costs
2001 it's a beautiful fun place 8/18/2020 9:23 AM
2002 We were originally scheduled to come in July for our anniversary , but canceled due to 8/18/2020 9:23 AM concerns over COVID. We have made reservations for September to stay at a cabin in hopes that we will be able to social distance and still enjoy the beauty of Door County.
2003 We went to DC for our honeymoon (14 years ago today ;) and it's one of our favorite places to 8/18/2020 9:22 AM visit. We are even more likely to come up there now due to Covid, because we can drive there (from Madison) and because *we feel safe* there. :)
2004 Thank you for welcoming visitors to beautiful Door County 8/18/2020 9:22 AM
2005 First went there for our honeymoon 43 years ago and enjoy going back whenever we have a 8/18/2020 9:22 AM chance.
2006 We visited DoCo in June with our 1 year old and were pleased with the precautions owners and 8/18/2020 9:22 AM staff were taking to keep their self, staff, and guests safe. Masks were not required for visitors at the time but almost everyone we saw was wearing one unless dining. Thank you Door County business owners and staff for your dedication to keep everyone healthy to the best of your ability.
2007 We’ve been visiting Door County for yrs and always find something we’ve never seen before. 8/18/2020 9:22 AM We have the fondest memories in one of the most unique/wonderful places ever visited.
2008 This will be my husband’s first time going and he’s usually more of a “Vegas speed” kind of 8/18/2020 9:22 AM guy so I’m hoping to be able to show him that we can still have fun and find things to do even within a few hours drive
2009 Our family has been vacationing in DC for almost 55 years. We’ve always loved it. Even after 8/18/2020 9:22 AM my parents passed away we held on to this tradition. It’s very important to us.

2010 Just spent the past week-end in Door County by myself. Have been social distancing since 8/18/2020 9:22 AM March and even the drive from Waukesha to Door County was a treat. Thoroughly enjoyed my time at a private cottage and the change of scenery.
2011 I am originally from Honduras, but i have been in this country for 48years. But i buy so many 8/18/2020 9:22 AM souvenirs from Door County to send to my family in Honduras. Also senf many treats but this year with Covid 19 i wont be able to send treats only souvenirs, my nephews and nieces look forward recieving this gifts and wearing them to school. And showing off and explaing where this is located in show in tell. I love Door County!!
2012 Door county brings back so many childhood memories and I can’t wait to get some apples on 8/18/2020 9:22 AM my next trip down. Can’t wait to see what precautions Door County businesses are taking so we can have a fun and safe trip!
2013 Love Door County! 8/18/2020 9:22 AM
2014 We all have concerns on covid but the media has blown it way out of proportion. Yes it is 8/18/2020 9:22 AM serious for some but not all of us and putting mandates down hurts small businesses, please help them stay open and make a living.
2015 looking forward to visiting 8/18/2020 9:22 AM
2016 Loved our previous kayak trip in Doir Cty 8/18/2020 9:22 AM
2017 Some of the better restaurants were serving on paper and plastic. I really didn’t enjoy that. 8/18/2020 9:22 AM
2018 Love coming ! 8/18/2020 9:22 AM
2019 My hubby and I usually try to get up there 2 to 3 times a year. We took a trip in January; we 8/18/2020 9:22 AM were going to go up there this summer sometime, but COVID-19 killed that idea.
2020 Can’t wait to visit! Visited early June and everything was Fine. 8/18/2020 9:22 AM

2026 I wish DC well in surviving this season. Hoping everything is back to normal in 2021. 8/18/2020 9:21 AM
2027 We just got back from a trip to DC (Aug 13-16) and felt that every place we went did an 8/18/2020 9:21 AM excellent job. We saw masks everywhere and I think every place we went also had hand sanitizer readily available. My wife & I felt very comfortable that businesses are taking precautions.
2028 We visited a month or so ago and we were super happy to see people social distancing and 8/18/2020 9:21 AM the establishments all wearing masks.
2029 Stop being ridiculous and get back to normal. We don't treat the flu this way and if the numbers 8/18/2020 9:21 AM weren't inflated and the media hyping this up, people wouldn't be scared.
2030 none 8/18/2020 9:21 AM
2031 None 8/18/2020 9:21 AM
2032 I wear the mask only because it is required to enter the stores and restaurants. I want the 8/18/2020 9:21 AM businesses to thrive. Morning
2033 Looking forward to being there. 8/18/2020 9:21 AM
2034 Looking for something to do in addition to shopping and sight seeing. 8/18/2020 9:21 AM

2039 We decided not to come to Door County next month since I wanted to be part of the solution 8/18/2020 9:20 AM not the problem. I have been ordering from different places in Door County to support the business even though I am not there this year.
2040 See you in the fall 8/18/2020 9:20 AM
2041 Hope restaurants continue carry out options through the winter months. 8/18/2020 9:20 AM

2044 As a former home owner in Door County, it always is in my heart. 8/18/2020 9:20 AM
2045 I was just in Door County and stayed in Sister Bay this past weekend and everything was very 8/18/2020 9:20 AM safe. All service industry wore masks. We had a great time!
2046 We love door county 8/18/2020 9:20 AM
2047 Miss theatre productions. 8/18/2020 9:20 AM
2048 I’m not coming this year because of the mask views of others. Just too much uncertainty that 8/18/2020 9:20 AM others will not observe public health guidance.
2049 We love Door County and plan on returning again. 8/18/2020 9:20 AM
2050 thank you :-) 8/18/2020 9:20 AM
2051 Same 8/18/2020 9:20 AM
2052 Fish boils are fun. Sister Bay, Gil's Rock, and wonderful views. Never heard of selling real 8/18/2020 9:19 AM estate by the square inch, except at Door County.
2053 Great job so far for our visit in June. We felt safe but limited ourselves to mostly outdoor 8/18/2020 9:19 AM activities away from crowds.
2054 I would love to win a little get away for my husband and I 8/18/2020 9:19 AM

2059 when we visited this summer, most places were following good guidelines, but we were 8/18/2020 9:19 AM surprised at the amount of people going in and out of stores and the lack of people wearing masks - it made us not want to go into any
2060 way too much development in Door County - it is loosing the Door County feel that people have 8/18/2020 9:19 AM enjoyed for many years - it is not all about tax dollars for municipalities - Sister Bay is way over developed - Ephraim is about the only place that still feels like old Door County
2061 We just returned from a 4 day camping trip to Door County and I was very satisfied with the 8/18/2020 9:19 AM safety measures put in place!
2062 Since we cancelled our trip because of the virus, I would like an incentive to go to Door County 8/18/2020 9:19 AM this year (winning the gift certificates). I felt terrible having to cancel but feel more comfortable now that there are protocols in place.
2063 Thanks! 8/18/2020 9:19 AM
2064 Love Door County 8/18/2020 9:19 AM

2085 We have been visiting DC at least once yearly—often twice in the last 5 years—for over 25 8/18/2020 9:18 AM years. So the pandemic has completely altered any travel/getaway plans. We are in the ‘vulnerable age’ bracket so are planning to be smart and, very sadly, wait until things improve and/or a vaccination is available. We feel so fortunate to have DC in our sites and memories— surely heaven is similar. ☺
2086 Looking forward to our trip! 8/18/2020 9:17 AM

2104 We visit Door County throughout the year on day trips. I know the county has done a great job 8/18/2020 9:16 AM ensuring the safety of all visitors. However, it’s the visitors that scare me the most during this time!
2105 We stayed a week in sister bay aug 7-14 and felt comfortable wherever we went. We only ate 8/18/2020 9:16 AM outside and for the most people were very accommodating. Most visitors has face coverings on. Can’t wait to go back in the fall!!

2134 I was very sad to cancel my trip to DC but everything I heard was people were not taking 8/18/2020 9:14 AM COVID serious in Wisconsin so unfortunately we had to cancel. This trip is always the highlight of my year.
2135 We are very concerned about Covid-19 spread in Door County. Everyone needs to take that 8/18/2020 9:14 AM seriously! Our neighbors up here all seem to, and so should those who visit.

2165 We practiced social distancing our entire visit. Was disappointed to see that they did not 8/18/2020 9:12 AM require masks on the boat tours--Sister Bay. We wore our masks as did the captain and staff. The top of the boat was overcrowded with people not social distancing and not wearing masks. We stayed below deck with the Captain.

2192 I LOVE going to door county with my mom and sister, it’s the perfect girls weekend 8/18/2020 9:07 AM destination. We visited in July and were very impressed with the precautions that restaurants, hotels and shops were taking! We loved that almost every single restaurant had a pick up to go option! Made it very easy to safely pick up food to eat in our hotel room and relax. The only thing that made us nervous were all of the Illinois license plates and some tourists not wearing mask. But overall, the county is doing an incredible job to keep visitors safe.
2193 Absolutely love Door County, can't wait to return. 8/18/2020 9:06 AM
