I lived in Door County for over a decade as the manager of my family's business, the Country House Resort in Sister Bay. I now live about 100 miles from the resort in the Appleton area with my husband Brian and our three dogs, Cheney, Dugan and Maggie. I love to work in the travel industry and I especially love to travel with my husband, and our dogs whenever feasible. We return to Door County as often as possible and I always bring at least one dog with me. I believe passionately in being a considerate and responsible pet parent to ensure continued access with our dogs to activities, businesses and events. I look forward to sharing some of our favorite dog friendly businesses and activities along with tips and insights for enjoying Door County with your furry, four legged children.
