What to pack

What February feels like

Most kitchens up the peninsula are closed or on weekend-only hours, so check before you drive north of Egg Harbor. The trade is candlelight ski nights in Peninsula State Park, shanties out on Sturgeon Bay, and rooms at a fraction of the summer rate.

Winter is doing its thing: 12.9 in of snow in a typical February, with fresh snow on about 6 days. Nearly every night dips below freezing.

Can you swim?

The lake runs about 35° — frigid — locals in wetsuits only.
