Make sure to look up in the sky tonight and tomorrow! ☄️☄️

One of the best nights of the summer for stargazing is almost here!

The Perseid meteor shower peaks overnight August 12–13. With almost no moonlight, viewing conditions should be especially good this year.

For the best chance of seeing meteors, find a dark spot with a wide view of the sky and look up after midnight. No telescope or binoculars needed—just give your eyes about 20 minutes to adjust to the darkness.

Please help keep our lake skies dark by turning off or dimming unnecessary outdoor lights. Then settle in and enjoy the show!

The Eagle River Farmers Market is held on Sundays and Wednesdays and is always a must when in the Northwoods. They have something for everyone.

Crystal clear water, towering pines, quiet mornings on the lake, and nowhere you need to be. 💙 At Briar’s Hideaway on North Twin Lake in Phelps, Wisconsin, life slows down just a little and that’s exactly the way we like it.

Briar’s Hideaway is the place to be from splashing in the crystal clear water to roasting marshmallows under the stars, this is the kind of place where childhood adventures become lifelong memories.

If you’re looking for the cutest coffee shop make sure to stop into Highland Cottage Cafe on your next trip in the northwoods. Who wouldn’t love sitting in their outdoor area admiring their beautiful highland cows.

Make sure to check out Maggie’s Geological Gems in Minocqua, Wisconsin. The kids loved being able to mine their own gems and crack open a geode!! I highly recommend this place for any one who loves crystals and rocks. This place is truly one of a kind.
