Very nice little housing set up for old-time Fisherman. It sits on along a river which is unique. Very colorful looking buildings. And the lighthouse is pretty.

Historic Washington House

Reviewed By jeanbeilke1957 - Two Rivers, United States

This is a great place to see. Old fashioned bar area, a ice cream parlor & a huge wall clock from the early days. Upstairs is a huge hall with a great ceiling. Worth a stop. Even if it is just to get a ice cream cone!

How this is not top rated on Trip Advisor is ridiculous- this is a Frank L. Wright house! We had a great visit led by a docent and the owner of the home. About 20 people on our tour- no problem accommodating all of us. Read all the other reviews- then come and visit- a real thrill for architecture buffs

Spirit of the Rivers

Reviewed By Calicoboy - Manitowoc, United States

Went to the dedication of this remarkable statue monument yesterday. An absolutely stunning bronze statue of three Ojibwa Indians caught in time during a portage out of Lake Michigan. The 10 foot tall subjects include a young woman, an elder guide, and a young brave carrying a birch bark canoe. The canoe is 18 feet long; and the statue weighs 3 and a half tons. This project was supposed to be completed in 2014; but it took a while longer. The design and casting of this impressive work was done by the well known sculptor R. T. "Skip" Wallen. An Ojibwa elder gave the convocation in his native tongue. He spoke of respect for the planet and all living things; and the common values of humanity. Although I speak passable Lakhota, Ojibwa was beyond my comprehension. Good thing he spoke in English, too. The crowd was in hushed respect. Except for the troll who drove by and yelled, "they're just @%$&ing Indians!" When you visit this place, you will notice the incredible detail in the the statue. The artist went all out to make this monument appear to be a snapshot from time. With Lake Michigan as the backdrop this spot between Manitowoc and Two Rivers is gorgeous! If you are driving between Trivers and Manty it would greatly behoove you to stop and take in this marvel on the lake shore. It's right across from the Aurora Hospital.
