The
picturesque village of Ephraim is nestled in the heart of the Door
County
peninsula. Settled in 1853 by Norwegian
Moravians on the tranquil shores of Eagle
Harbor, Ephraim is one of Door County’s
finest treasures. Ephraim’s rich heritage has
been carefully preserved in more than 30
historical sites throughout the village. You
can step into the past by taking a Historical
Walking Tour or visiting one of the village
museums.
Ephraim has the most accessible shoreline of all Door County communities. There is something for everyone along the waterfront. Adventurous types can explore Eagle Harbor from a jet ski, a kayak, or by para-sail high above the Bay. Rent a family-sized pontoon boat or enjoy the panoramic view of Ephraim and nearby Peninsula State Park on a sailboat tour. Spend a day relaxing at the public sand beach. Finish the day with a picture perfect sunset!
Door County was cited in Midwest Living Magazine as “One of the
best places to find a gift” and you will find the best selection
the county has
to offer in Ephraim! Within walking distance of most accommodations are shops and galleries set in century-old barns, rustic log cabins
and vintage homes. Visitors will have an unforgettable shopping
experience
with the wide range of high quality items including clothing, jewelry,
home furnishings, garden accessories, fine art and much more.
Ephraim is home to more harbor-view dining than anywhere else on
the Door peninsula. Your taste buds will surely be delighted
by the variety
of cuisine offered for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Be sure to
try some of the classics, such as buttermilk pancakes and Belgian
waffles smothered
in Door
County cherries, creative egg wraps, delicious homemade soups
and sandwiches, Norwegian meatballs, or a traditional Door County
fish boil. Don't forget to save room for a world-famous ice cream
cone at Wilson's.
Whether your stay is for a day, a week, a month, or longer, Ephraim
offers a full range of accommodations from modestly priced cottages to
elegant hospitality inns, and everything else in between. Please check

and winter - in every season there is a reason to visit Ephraim!
