Beautiful well planed playground even has padded flooring to assure there are few scuffs and scrapes. Not just jungle gyms and swings but areas that look like ships and lighthouses for children to let their imagination go wild.There are even benches where parents can watch their kids.Entrances and exits are limited so kids can't run off. Other cities should copy this facility!
2. Harrington Beach State Park

Reviewed By JESSICA S - Milwaukee, Wisconsin
I visited the Beach with 3 of my children ages 8-12. The beach was clean, everyone using the Beach was clean and friendly, and the staff was helpful upon arrival. The shoreline is very shallow for quite a way, so there was no fear of drowning. Fish swam beside the children and they enjoyed that. The sand was clean and they also enjoyed playing in the sand. There are bathrooms close to the beach/swim area and they were very clean.
3. Lion's Den Gorge Nature Preserve

Reviewed By FXDWG05 - Wisconsin
Be ready for a nature walk adventure! It is nature and the mosquitos can get more than a little friendly when you get into the park. Several trail options lead you through a variety of trails that go from lake bluff to prairie grasses and back into wooded areas. There is even a wetland area with a small boardwalk leading out to a viewing deck in the wetlands. It must be a good place to visit because my children never want to leave until we have gone on just about every trail, which is amazing if you understand a couple of teenagers!

Well done 1860 light house with a dedicated group that is preserving this site. Tours are thoughtfully given. The light station is not open year round so check the website. Save time to walk the grounds and if you are able absolutely climb to the top to see the light and view!
5. Cedarburg Covered Bridge

Reviewed By NeverUnpacked - Westfield, Indiana
Recently made the detour out here again. Nice picturesque setting for a picnic if you want to get away from Cedarburg for a bit. Didn't realize this is the last covered bridge in the state. Not spectacular, but worth it if you're a covered bridge fan or just looking for a unique spot for a picnic.
6. Vines to Cellars Winery

Reviewed By Phil R - Chelmsford, Massachusetts
The staff was extremely friendly explaining that the wine they sell is made right at that facility. There was a large selection of wines to select from and we did.
7. Coal Dock Park
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 16 reviews
Reviewed By SeacayII - Port Washington, Wisconsin
Big open place to walk or run around. Very small parking area for its size and no bathroom facilities (several porta pots). Doesn't really have any great reason to go there. Good view of the lighthouse and replica of the WWII Wisconsin Memorial in Washington D.C. Good fishing access. Watch out for the Geese and their droppings!
8. Port Exploreum

Reviewed By Linda T - Port Washington, Wisconsin
Special place with lots of photos, new technology displays, entertainment for kids. They did a fabulous job on remodeling this building while leaving the original brick walls. The ground floor has wonderful displays for the kids and the floor of one room looks like the deck of a boat. They have kid/family friendly movies with popcorn for the kids one night a week, you can even have kids birthday parties there. Wonderful place for the entire family. Lots of knowledgeable people on staff to help with displays and any questions.
