The North Point Lighthouse is a maritime treasure that has recently been restored to its original early 20th century charm.

Avoid the crowds at the shores of Lake Michigan while still taking in the beautiful sights on your romantic date.

Break out your bathing suits and head to popular Bradford Beach during the warm months. Located along the Lake Michigan shoreline, this beach is just north of downtown Milwaukee.
