Enjoy full use of the marina amenities while there including clubhouse bathrooms/showers, indoor/outdoor pools, grilling stations, and an outdoor fireplace.

While in Sturgeon Bay, take a cruise on The Chicago Fireboat (www.ridethefireboat.com). Originally designed as a City of Chicago Fireboat, the Fred A. Busse was built in Bay City, Michigan, in 1937 and is similar to two other firefighting vessels, the Victor Schlaeger and the Joseph Medill, constructed in Sturgeon Bay shortly after World War II. Whether you want to start your day with a morning cruise or enjoy time with friends and family while taking in all the beautiful sites, the Chicago Fireboat is available for daily adventures.
