  Time is flying and 2008 is almost gone.  New Years is upon us and we still have availability at Glidden for you to ring in the New Year while enjoying lovely accomodations on the shore of Lake Michigan.  The waves are still crashing against the shore and we do have some ice shelves but it is always wonderful to see the water all year round.

  There are New Year’s and New Year’s Eve activities happening around Door County.  Enjoy dinner over at the tempting Donny’s Glidden Lodge Restaurant.  Go out for the night or stay inside your nicely appointed suite and spend a relaxing time celebrating the New Year. 

  WOW have we got snow, snow, and more snow!!!  The cross county ski trails are OPEN!  However the snowmobile trails are closed at this time.  However more snow is in the forecast tommorrow so maybe they’ll open for the holiday.   Come enjoy the winter activites.  Skiing, snowmobiling, snow shoeing, tubing, snow boarding and more.  It’s fun for the whole family!

The sun is bright but it is pretty cold here at Glidden.  Inside the unit you’ll be nice and toasty warm curling up next to the fireplace with a good book or enjoying a soak in the hot tub.  In the evening enjoy a dinner next door at Donny’s Restaurant a beautiful waterfront restaurant. 

Experience nature in Door County with a front row seat of Lake Michigan.  Walk along the shoreline to the nearby Whitefish Dunes State Park and just beyond is historic Cave Point County Park to view the limestone cliffs and caves.
