Welcome to The Ridges Sanctuary
In 1937, The Ridges Sanctuary became Wisconsin's first land trust. For over 75 years, it has been an integral part of the rich, natural setting of the Baileys Harbor community and the Door County Peninsula.
Beachfront Inn Baileys Harbor WI
Small and colorful, the Beachfront Inn, situated on beautiful Lake Michigan, has arguably the best beach location of any lodging in the Northern Door. In the heart of downtown Baileys Harbor and just moments away from The Ridges Sanctuary, a micro brewery, an old-fashioned ice cream shop, quaint taverns and restaurants, the Beachfront is the natural choice for the next family adventure or quiet get-away.

Baileys Harbor, Door County
Nestled in the heart of Door County, we are often referred to as the secret the locals try to keep under wraps. With some of the best sunrises to start your day with, pristine beaches and some of the best chefs around, it’s no wonder locals like to call it home.
We invite you to join us to see what all the hype is about.
Wake up to the best sunrise views in Door County. Build a sand castle on our sandy beaches or curl up with a good book and listen to waves crash on the shore. After a day of exploring, start a bonfire on the beach and look for shooting stars.
Looking for adventure? Why not book a tour exploring lighthouses and shipwrecks in glass bottom kayaks? Imagine pulling a giant salmon or trout from crystal clear waters on one of our excellent charter boats. Try not to scream as you skim through the tree tops on a sky high zip line tour. Nothing beats the relaxation of hiking through over 6,000 acres of public forests and fields including The Ridges Sanctuary with winding trails through evergreen forests and brand new Nature Center.
Need a little down time? Spend your afternoon sampling local craft beers or wines made right here in Baileys Harbor. Our restaurants range from coffee shops or burger joints to fine dining with a glass of wine and picturesque views of our harbor.
