Comfort and Convenience Updates at Birchwood Lodge in Sister Bay

November 23rd, 2009 Dennis

Although Birchwood Lodge in Sister Bay has had computer access in most of the main lodge rooms for some time, past and prospective guests have often asked about wi-fi access in all of the units.  This past summer season, that request was filled and we’re pleased to state that the entire main lodge, the restored Farmhouse and Village Homes  now have wi-fi internet connection.  For the business person who needs to stay in touch while on vacation, family memebers who want to check email or look-up local attractions, or kids who need that social networking connection, this free service is just another amenity that makes Birchwood Lodge so attractive.   We’re also pleased to say that every unit has a new,  queen size sleeper sofa.  These stylish sleeper sofas, upholtered in high quality, attractive fabric,  fit the decor of each room and provide comfortable seating and sleeping accommodations without the middle bar on the mattress frame.   With these updates and additions, Birchwood Lodge is like “your home away from home” as you experience all that Door County has to offer.

It’s Cherry Time in Door County

July 10th, 2009 Dennis

There a many adjectives that perfectly describe Door County and all that it has to offer.  Perhaps none is more fitting than being labelled “Cherry Capital of  Wisconsin”.  Now is a good time to head to the Birchwood Lodge in Sister Bay to enjoy the culture, nature and other attractions that Door County offers.   A trip to one of the many farm markets and fruit stands is a must on your “to do list”, especially at this time.  Seaquist Orchards Farm Market,  which is just a short drive from Birchwood Lodge, has Morello early tart cherries for sale now and sweet cherries will be completely harvested in the next few weeks.  Sample the tart or sweet cherries and you’ll want to take some home.  While you’re at Seaquist’s Market, ask where you could see cherry trees being picked.  You might observe pickers doing the harvesting by hand, or the automated “tree shakers” could be wrapped around the trees.  Seaquist Orchards are located all around the county and you’re bound to find a scenic country road to find one on a short side trip.  Though Wisconsin is known as The Dairy State, it could also be called The Cherry State,  in Door County in July .

Birchwood Lodge in Sister Bay, Door County, Welcomes Foreign Students

June 24th, 2009 Dennis

Each year, Birchwood Lodge in Sister Bay welcomes some foreign students as summer helpers on our Housekeeping Staff.   Students this year are from Ukraine and Russia.  Early Sunday morning, June 21,  Stanislav (Stas) and Yulia from Russia, landed at La Guardia Airport in New York City for a few hours layover before the next parts of their journey to Chicago and then Green Bay.  Naturally, they were exhausted from their long trip and they fell asleep in a waiting area with their bags nearby.   They awoke later only to discover that their bags had been stolen with all of their clothes and all of the money their families provided for them. Fortunately, they had their passports on them.   Scared, frutrated by the devastating loss and angered by this first unpleasant introduction to America, they continued on to complete their trip to Green Bay, where our General Manager finally retrieved them.  He took them to his home where he and his wife immediately gave them clothes, food, and the comforting assurance that they would be all right.   When news of this situation was made known to others in Door County the next day,  the spirit of generosity and kindness of people here kicked in immediately for these kids.   The Business Manager of the  Stella Maris Parish in Northern Door contributed some of his own personal clothing for Stas, and the parish also provided monetary gift cards for them to use at the Piggly-Wiggly Store.   Lions Club of Northern Door provided cash for their immediate needs.  Joanne from Social Services of Door County put through vouchers from the Salvation Army so that they could purchase new clothing at Wal-Mart.  Wal-Mart in Sturgeon Bay offered them additional clothing vouchers.  First Baptist Church in Sister Bay let them stock up on non-perishable food items from the Community Food Pantry.   Anonymous donors provided more cash.  Bargains Unlimited provided them with shoes, and the spirit of giving goes on and on.  Stas and Yulia are overwhelmed by this outpouring of kindness and the smiles have returned to their faces.   They are already working hard here, getting more adjusted day by day,  and eager to see more of Door County, USA.   Stas and Yulia wish to thank all of those individuals, business establishments, churches and service organizations for reaching out to them in a true spirt of friendship. Their first impressions of America may have been negative but they have formed a positive opinion now because of  the people of Door County.
