Founded in 1912, the Village of Sister Bay is the center of Northern Door activity. The Village provides a vibrant, full service business community, hosting retail, dining, lodging, grocery, medical care, banking and other professional practices…..anything you could need can be found in Sister Bay. For residents, Sister Bay offers is an excellent place to raise children, start a business, or retire. With excellent daycare facilities and public schools and abundant seasonal job openings in a variety of businesses, choosing to raise a family in Sister Bay is a great option. Prospective business owners will find ample property for development, and a limited number of vacancies; emblematic of how stable our business community is. As a retiree, we’re just a hop, skip and jump (or 10 minute car ride) from the best natural and cultural attractions on the Peninsula such as Northern Sky Theater, The Clearing Folk School, Newport and Peninsula State Parks, and the Peninsula Music Festival to name just a few. Slow down your internal hustle and bustle and take in the spectacular views of the water from Downtown. Sister Bay has the largest expanse of publicly accessible shoreline of any town in Door County! With something for every stage of life, Sister Bay is the place to be.
If you’re new to Sister Bay, please stop in at our Village Administrative Office, located at 2383 Maple Dr. We’ll help you get your Water and Sewer services set up.
