what's in Door County isn't unique to wisconsin or the tourist industry.

so you're telling me the food tastes better because you're on a peninsula? the prices are definitely higher b/c you're on it.
Maybe the higher prices are part of the reason people like it. The rest of your comment really smacks of "People only like mountains because they're so tall"

How many other places in Wisconsin can you get all of these things bundled together?

The concentration and abundance of all the above in a single destination is not easy to find elsewhere.

I didn't say anything about the price of food, or food at all, so I have no idea WTF you're talking about.

A vacation destination, much like a home city, is what you make of it. If you just drive up and down 57 and 42 and don't see enough to entertain you, then that's your loss. And my gain, because your car will not be in my way

Door County is definitely not over rated. Certainly one of the most geographically and economically unique areas in Wisconsin!

IMO it's a beautiful area, but I've spent quite a few summers there. Like the other posters have said, you really need to get off the main roads to see it. Also, bring a canoe/kayak.
